1 | Does Rev 22:19 teach loss of salvation? | Rev 22:19 | Metochoi | 40238 | ||
What is the best way to explain that this verse is not in reference to "loss of salvation" as some religious teachers use it to support that teaching? | ||||||
2 | Does Rev 22:19 teach loss of salvation? | Rev 22:19 | ahotaccents | 160386 | ||
I think the best way to approach scripture is to just study and see what the verse is referring to. Allow the scripture to speak for itself rather than trying to explain that it means a certain thing and not another. If the verse is truly supporting the idea of "loss of salvation" then that is what it refers to. If it does not refer to that, then what does it refer to? I think we allow ourselves to be trapped by Satan when we try to decide ahead of time what the Bible does and does not say and then attempt to interpret it based one these decisions. The verse clearly says that God will take away their share in the tree of life. I think the safest way to deal with that verse is to recognize that God has the authority and will exercise that authority to take away an individual's eternal life if someone adds or takes away from God's word. | ||||||

Hmmm...If God takes away His free gift of Eternal Life from anyone that He has freely given to by His grace through their faith in Christ alone for salvation, then it would not be either EternaL or FREE would it? Ephesians 1.6 2.8,9 Romans 3.24,4.4; Titus 3.5-6 etc | ||||||

Greetings Metochoi! You responded to a post from October 2005 and that persons last post was the same month and year. It might be you will not get any response from them. There are many still here and let me say we are glad to have you participating in the Study Bible Forum! I'm sure all will agree as it is a joy to discuss the word of God with all! By the way, I agree with your point! It is interesting that some have a tendency to put restrictions on "Eternity" :-) God bless, Steve |
