1 | Is "Once Saved Always Saved" scriptural | Phil 1:6 | Becky1969 | 98828 | ||
Where is it found in the Bible "Once Saved Always Saved?" I have not found this in the Bible. If it is not in the scriptures, why is it taught so much. I am a new christian and I am studying very hard but I am confused about this subject. I know it says in the bible that people have fallen from grace. Does this mean that "Once Saved Always Saved" is not true? Thank You |

Becky "our assurance of salvation comes from evaluating the inward and outward evidence of our own faith against the characteristics of true faith found in Scripture. Paul makes it clear that we are to examine ourselves in regard to our faith" 2 Cor. 13:5 "The same Saviour who said, "I give unto them eternal life and they shall never perish" (Jn. 10:28) also said, "Strive to enter by the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able." (Lk. 13:23-24) The same apostle Peter who said, "In his great mercy he has given us new birth . . . into an inheritance that can never perish" (1 Pet. 1:3-4) also said "Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure" (2 Pet. 1:10) The apostle Paul who said nothing "will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Rom. 8:39) also said, "I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize" (1 Cor. 9:27) "It is written, 'He who endures to the end, the same shall be saved' (Matt. 10:22). So whatever precedes the end is only a step by which we ascend to the summit of salvation." Cyprian (200-258 A.D.) You can also study verses such as John 15:6 Heb. 3:12 Heb. 6:4-6 Heb. 10:26-30 2 Pet. 2:20-22 which do not support the "once saved, always saved" theory Or you can study verses such as John 10:28 Rom 8:38-39 for verses that others use to support the "once saved, always saved" theory God bless you New Creature |
