1 | You are saved when you accept Christ . | John 3:5 | Tab123160 | 2569 | ||
You are right, you must be baptized. It is a sacrament of forgivesness and rebirth. It is not a symbol. You are missing a key scripture verse. (John 3:5) where Jesus states: "Amen,amen, I say to you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and spirit." Jesus is clearly talking about baptism in this verse. Read John 1:32 just before Jesus teaches Nicodemus about being born again. In this verse Christ, Himself was baptized by John the Baptist. Jesus goes down into the water and is baptized, the heavens open and the Holy Spirit descends upon him in the form of a dove. Christ did not have to be born again but He showed us what we must do in order to inherit the kingdom of God. The only logical conclusion one can make from the Biblical evidence is being born again is when one is properly baptized. The saving grace is baptism. Do you really believe in the once saved always saved theory. Again look at scripture. Scripture does not say "ALL" you have to do is accept Me [Jesus] as your Lord and Savior then you are saved from damnation. This is what the Bible says: Past Event (I have been saved) Rom 8:24-for in hope we were saved Eph 2:5,8-by grace you have been saved through faith 2Tim 1:9-he saved us,called us, according to his grace Tit 3:5 he saved us thru bath of rebirth, renewal by Holy Spirit Present Process (I am being saved) Phil 2:12 work out your salvation with fear and trembling 1 Pet 1:9 as you attain the goal of your faith,salvation Future Event (I will be saved) Mt 10:22 he who endures to the end will be saved Mt24:13 he who preseveres to the end will be saved Mk 8:35 whoever loses his life for my sake will save it Acts 15:11 we shall be saved through the grace of Jesus Rom5:9-10 since we are justified, we shall be saved Rom 13:11 salvation is nearer now than first believed 1Cor3:15 he will be saved, but only as through fire 1Cor 5:5 deliver man to Satan so his spirit may be saved Heb9:28 Jesus will appear second time, to bring salvation |

Johnny, That is not my subject line. Since it was so long ago, I think it automatically came up when I replied to someone's statement. In reply to your question : "I am curious do you believed save is always save? " Answer: No. I am saved by grace alone. |
