A christian can turn away from God and serve him no more. Here are some New Testament for you. Hebrews 3:12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. Hebrews 10:38,39 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. 2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. Revelation 2:4-5 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. Luke 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. Have a Blessed Day, winningside |

Heb 3:12 Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God. Dear winingside, Could you explain to me how a person can have two hearts? One being a God given heart of flesh and the other a heart of unbelief? John |

Hi John, I am not sure why you are asking this question? "Could you explain to me how a person can have two hearts? One being a God given heart of flesh and the other a heart of unbelief?" Every word that I used to reply to that message was scripture only. But I can say that people can choose to turn away from God, it has nothing to do with having two hearts. It is one heart and one mind making two different choices. Have a Blessed Day!! winningside |

Dear winningside, the point of my question is that faith and unbelief cannot possibly exist simultaneously. One either trusts in Christ, or he does not trust in Christ. By this, I don't mean to say that a true believer never suffers attacks upon his faith, by the world, the flesh or the devil. To the contrary, a true believer is the only one who has a faith worthy of attack. Why would Satan seek to destroy that which does not exist? Going to church is not proof that one is saved....neither is believing sound doctrine, or generous giving, or emotional feelings. One may believe that the gospel is the inerrant Word of God...but this does alone prove that he is saved. The only thing that really matters and is absolute evidence is the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in one's heart. So, if one has the Spirit of God, he also has been sealed by Him... 2 Cor 1:22 who also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge. Eph 4:30 Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. John |
