Subject: Hebrews 6:6 explained |
Bible Note: Dear Tim, "If you continue in your faith then you will be presented holy in His sight else (you will not be presented holy in His sight)." Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. If He can't finish it no one can. I don't mean to impugn your motives, but your view is diametricaly opposed to mine. If I tend to lose my cool, it is because of my zeal for God's glory. You wrote: The "I have not lost any" passage occurs in the context where there is one exception -Judas (John 17:12)." Do you mean to imply that Judas was one whom the Father gave to the son (I feel as if I'm entering fantasyland). Post me asap and tell me I'm mistaken! John 6:37-40 "All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day." I don't know how much clearer a verse could be? John |
