1 | Divorced Do Christians Get Remarried? | 1 Cor 6:9 | DocTrinsograce | 205364 | ||
Dear Jeff, If you wouldn't mind my interjecting here... You wrote, "...there is nothing in Scripture that teaches that a Christian participating in sin (even willfully) forfeits his/her salvation." That is true. However, I am always afraid of the ditch on the other side of the road! So permit me to add: There are Scriptures that state that habitual and willful sinning is not characteristic of someone who is saved (Hebrews 10:23-27; 1 John 3:9). This is why the Word encourages us to be as careful as we can about the question of our salvation (Philippians 2:12). If we judge ourselves, we can avoid judgment (1 Corinthians 11:31). We should be constantly examining ourselves (2 Corinthians 13:5), looking constantly into the mirror of the Word, to determine if we are of the faith. In Him, Doc |

Thanks Doc- If you reread my post you will find where I pointed this out immediately after the statement you quoted. I wrote: "While we are not free to judge another's salvation, we can safely assume that a person who continues in a willful lifestyle of gross sin against God may not be saved at all..." Thanks for providing the Scriptural reference to support that statement though. God bless, Jeff |
