2681 | Apostasy. Can one return to Christ? | Heb 6:4 | justme | 55341 | ||
This for those who have the belief that one can commit apostasy. Could someone who holds this belief, please tell me can a person return to Grace and resume, or be saved again? I am not being facetious, I have never had anyone explain this to me. I really want to know. I am being respectfull, and honor your answer with no negative feed back. Thank you. agape, justme |

Kalos: do you believe in Apostasy yourself? I think I would say that "faith that falters, had a flaw ib the begining". That is a quote but I have no resource. agape, justme |

2684 | If u r saved can u ever become un saved? | Heb 6:4 | justme | 105599 | ||
Aniset: In fairness to all, these verses in Hebrews do have several explinations as to their meanings. As the dialogue has been engaged in for many many times, I would like to suggest a different direction to think about. Is there any sin, other than rejecting Jesus Christ, that is not forgiveavle? If the Holy Spirit puts a seal on us as being in Christ Jesus, Can the Holy Spirit ever fail in sealing us? If we can not believe every promise in the Word of God, that which ones can we trust. I am sure you know I am not the typical "once saved always saved" person. I believe "faith that falters had a flaw in it from the first. I think as others, the Hebrews passage is talking about Jews that were close but could not be brought back to a place of repentance, even though they had seen and tasted, but not swallowed the complete salvation in Jesus Christ. Please don't consider this an arguement, just a dialogue with open respect for either position. justme |

2685 | Saved or Not | Heb 6:6 | justme | 172136 | ||
rojedoo: Welcome to the Forum! This question is asked many times, and it's a question every believer must come to an answer that is Biblical, and they can defend. Often this question is asked by someone who wants to know how little can I do and still make it to heaven. Sometimes a person is living with sin that they do not want to give up, and seek to see if they will be rejected by Christ if they continue with this sin in their life. May I suggest you read John cahpter 10. I think this might help you. For myself I found John 10:28 very helpful. Blessings. justme |

2686 | Near Death Experiences | Heb 9:27 | justme | 93701 | ||
Searcher56:-) Greetings. Recently on pps TV there was a progran in which a group of Doctors talked about patients who said they had near death experiences. Every doctor on the progran which was about ten, had simular reports. The conclusion of this group was when the brain is near death there are light images and audo imput that come to many if not most. This might well explain the peace some say they felt before being ressuated. For me this may explain how people who were anti christ while alive could mistake passing on with out Christ. My what a nightmare they will some day wake up to. You would think someone who went into a near death would be a changet person! I thought this might make your point more interseting. Blessings. justme |

No one can argue or challeenge your experience, as you were the one who has the memory. I would say that there is a fine line in explaining these near death experiences. These experiences are abused to allow physics to tell you that you can have contact with the dear dead relatives. Crossing Over is one TV program that such an anti Christ shows off his "special abilities". This is a dangerious trend in the United States now. The Bible tells us not to even talk with such. I honestly believe what Hebrews 9:27 says. After death comes judgement. So if anyone says I was dead, and have returned from death, I would say that's incorrect, for each of has one and only one earthly death. The person was revived! Death is very misunderstood and the word dead is a lasting physical state. The Bible says satan comes as an angel of light. Is there something here that rings a fimular report that many say, they saw a peaceful bright light at the end of some tunnel? May I suggest that satan can and does give a peaceful feeling when we do evil. Why else would so many turn to sexual acts outside of marriage? It feels so right, it felt so good, is what I heard a number of people say. If sin felt bad or wrong most people would not want to sin. The important way to judge if something is true is to either find Scripture that either validates or invaladates our experiences. All other methods of attempting to make near death experiences valid are not in keeping with Scriptural backing are a waste of time, when we can be in the Word and growing in Christ. I hope this helps. I am saying that God protected you, and yes spared you, to share with others Jesus saving Grace. Blessings. justme |

I just went to the website you refered me to. This is not by any means connected with Christianity. I would avoid this web site like it was an open grave. Please remember that when anyone wants to take control of your thoughts that is not at all Christian. I would imagine as you mature in Christ you will be able to spot these phoney web sites, justme |

2689 | Couple of things... | Heb 9:27 | justme | 94251 | ||
Scripture specfically forbids psycics, witchcraft, speaking to the dead with mediums and the like. Wh have The Holy Scripyure that is what God speaks to us in, and the Holy Spiirit directs our path. As special as these near death stories are, as Christians we are to not be a part of this. Scripture is the Christians guide for life. Satan can and does come as an angel of light. I caution you not to be taken in by satans cunning ways. Flee from this before you get sucked into satans trap. Blessings. justme |

2690 | Angel of Light? | Heb 9:27 | justme | 96822 | ||
lateecia: Thank you for taking the time to write such a long response. Having been with number of those who had long term terminal ill people until they died, I can atest to this with some practicle experience. Also my education in CPE allowed me even more time to see first hand study o NDE's. Satan was an angel and he took with hin one third of the angels with him according to Scripture. I am convienced you are quite ardent about your belief in NDE's and I would rather not argue with you on this serious subject. I have given what I believe is solid Scriptual opinion. I am more concerned is a person has genuinely been made a New Creature in Christ before death than any NDE. I think that is by far the most important aspect of death is where we spend eternity. Blessings. justme |

2691 | Where is the soul an spirit after death. | Heb 9:27 | justme | 190215 | ||
Devine914: Hebrews 9:27 says after death comes judgement. If you are a Christian you go to be with the Lord, if you rejected Christ then eterinal death and punishment was a person choice while alive. I sincerely hope you have made Christ Lord. Have you made Christ Lord of your life? justme |

2692 | CBN: neardeath to hell and back? ?? | Heb 9:27 | justme | 226576 | ||
BradK: Good answer. I watched the programs myself. Those who shared their "death" experiences for the most part really felt what they experienced was reality for them. Some gave testimony of how this experience changed their life. One man so changed his life after experiencing what he thought was "hell", he surrendered to Jesus Christ as Lord. He became a pastor because he wanted no one else to go to hell where he claimed to have seen. Personally, I find these testimonies subject to question. No matter how much is said to bring these people into question, it gets down to how has this experience changed the persons life to become closer to the Lord. Near death experiences are not new, and there is no one who has not undergone such an experience to fully explain or understand how this happens. Personally in the NT Joseph was changed to accept and marry Mary who was pregnant with Jesus, and was told to do so in a dream. Paul was changed by a blinding light and Jesus speaking to him, which no one else heard. I totally believe what Scripture says about Joseph and Paul. I myself have had God speak to me, not in words we can hear, but in the very soul of my heart. This experience has had a profound lasting change in my life and that was thirty five years ago. The Holy spirit speaks to us today by the reading of the Word of God, perhaps in dreams, from the preaching of His Word, and life experiences. I have no idea if all the people on the 700 Club telecasts were true. I had some doubt on some, and others i believed the testimonies to be true. If God was glorified and the person did not contradict Scripture I believed their testimony. justme |

Aroundthebend: Welcome to the Study Bible Forum. I wonder if they has been involved with some activity that the Bible warns about staying away from? Demons are real and do show themselves as such things. You don't say if you family is involved with a Bible believing church or not. Has you family been taught the Bible? These are demonic things that people just laugh at and think are a fun thing, when in reality Satan is doing his best to attract people into witchcraft and games that draw people into his evil ways. I strongly suggest you talk to your pastor about this and ask him to give scriptures to encourage her about Jesus Christ and His protection and salvation that Jesus Christ offers to those who believe and become followers of Christ Jesus. I pray you will follow up on this ASAP. justme |

thelema: You have been forthright in your profile with you beliefs, and that is quite unusual. I respect your right to bring to the forum a dialogue that offers us an oppertunity to more fully understand others beliefs. You seem to have a solid understanding of the old Testament rituals, and the sacrifical requirements. That too is unique for most that I have encountered. I too have a copy of the Torah, and took a couple of classes from Rabbi Zedick. I found the class very enlightening and quite interesting, it was instruction I find useful even to this day. I find many Christians fail to understand that paticularly the book Deuteronomy is still a valid book of Scripture that gives advice as how we are to conduct our relationships, and protect our health. God's Word is living and active forever. I look to hear from you. Blessings. justme |

2696 | Is church membership required? | Heb 10:25 | justme | 50305 | ||
Dear ayfoster: Hebrews 10;25 should help clear up some of your questions. So the answer is yep. I f you belong to the Elks club unless you attend the club meetings you are not an Elk member. Get the idea? I believe you miss out for significant growth if you fail to go whenever you are able. The church I attend, Calvary Chapel does not have formal membership. But having been in churches that require membership, and members voting on every issue, I found the Pastor, Elder form of church leadership more in tune to Gods Word. That's my opinion only. Fellowship is very important, and there should be both kinds. I have not seen to many on mature christians out side of the church. There is no lone ranger christians. Hope this helps a little. agape, justme |

ava4: Well said friend. Only one who has gone through this may be able to understand what you mean. Salvation with out attending church is starvation, only a very slow painful one, that may lead only to saved by grace alone, and I do mean alone! justme |

Biblesearcher: Welcome to the Forum. As longas you are a part take a few minuets and fill out something about your self at the Update User Info. This ts a way you can get to know us and us you. You have been given all the verses about neglecting to assembling together. What is more important you will not grow alone. Your faith will remain as an infant, only being able to understand the "milk of the Word". Why settle for milk when prime rib is there? Once out of the habit it will take a real awakening to get you back into fellowship. Others who have been there can tell you it's like living on starvation food for the time you are out of fellowship. I know three years took their toll on me and my family a long time ago. justme |
