Dear Charis, I'm not sure I understand clearly. Are you saying that: 1. Salvation can be lost 2. It is difficult to lose 3. It rarely happens 4. Verses that support this view have been quoted by both camps?? :-( Sorry if I seem confused. I'm not even sure which camp I belong to, because I want to belong to the "ALWAYS SAVED" camp, and yet am afraid that I may be led astray by this belief. I would love to be assured of my salvation, simply because I know I could never do everything right to keep it, nor could I NOT do anything wrong - ever - that I might lose it. One thing I am sure of (and agree with you about)and that is that the Bible is NOT wishy-washy. That is why I would like to be sure of what it is that the Bible has to say on this very important matter. Please share in detail, if possible. Thank you and may God bless u for taking the time to share your wisdom with us. In His love, Your sister, Bhawna |

Greetings to All, Sorry to interrupt, but I would like to share this thought. When we are saved we receive the Holy Spirit, read these words from 1 Cor. 12:3, "Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit". If you have openly, sincerely claimed Jesus as your Lord you did it by the power of the Holy Spirit. Believers can grieve God's Holy Spirit, but once we receive Him He will never leave. respectfully, |

Thank you for your post. It is heartening to know that the Holy Spirit does not leave us. I have heard some people argue, though, that when we sin (and I know I often do) He cannot remain within us and so temporarily withdraws from us (until, I suppose, we confess our sins and are washed clean). Is that, in your opinion, just heresy? Or are there Scriptures to back this? In His love, Bhawna |

Greetings Bhawna, Please read these comforting words from Romans Chapter 8, 38 "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord". Nothing can cause us to lose our salvation,we serve a God of truth and mercy, He would not leave us without complete assurance it is everywhere in His word. Read all of Rom. chap 8 and you will see how the Spirit is with us. respectfully, |
