191 | Can one be deceived that he is saved? | Matt 7:21 | Lookn4ward2Heavn | 186419 | ||
Regarding Matt 7:21-23 - Doesn't it seem as if their self-deception is obvious and observable since, although they claim allegiance to Christ as Lord, they are practicing lawlessness? 1 John 2:19 - Their self-deception is made observable since they have left the fellowship of the Church; their allegiance to Christ is obviously false because they have separated themselves from the body of believers. Again, James 2:14 seems to address those whose allegiance is false because they do not demonstrate faith in Christ. Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems as if the verses above note obvious and observable differences between those whose allegiance to Christ is true and those who are false. My question arises on the premise that one shows every indication of being saved but is in reality not saved. In other words, is it possible that one, although showing outward indications that they are saved - for example, profess faith in Christ, attend fellowship, and do what is right - actually be lost? |

To whom does the "repentance" refer, to God or Esau? 2. Can the Greek help in clearly deciding to whom "repentance" has reference? 3. How specifically would the context help to clearly decide the matter? 4. Or, is there ambiguity in the Greek and the context deciding to whom "repentance" refers? Thanks. |
