Subject: But can WE know this? |
Bible Note: Arminianism vs. Calvinism has been around for a long time. We are still facing the same issues just using different "possibilities" and study Bible references. "Falling from grace and losing your salvation" are really not part of the Arminian position. Ours is a belief that apostasy is possible. It is not as easy to become apostate as many "fall from grace" thinkers say it is. Meaning... you don't just wake up one morning having lost your salvation. Apostasy is a process and the person who is on that path will know it. Apostasy is the abandonment or renunciation of Christianity and it is not by accident nor is it "losing" (as in unintentional)or "falling" as in whoops! It is the culmination of the refusal to repent for things which are obvious to the person approaching a final act of disobedience. |
