Bible Question: OK, I'll take the bait. Who has Eternal Insecurity? Anyone with sin in their life? Or anyone that says the matter is in God's gracious hands, we cannot know the fact in this life? Is it not a matter of faith, NOT knowledge? Your turn! In Jesus. |
Bible Answer: Who has Eternal Insecurity? I think the question should be: "Who does not have, does not want and does not believe in Eternal Security?" Wouldn't that person be the most likely one to have Eternal Insecurity. . . . For the record, my previous answer said nothing about anyone "having" Eternal Insecurity. I thought my point was rather simple: If you believe you have an insecure salvation, then how could you ever have security in it? Put another way, you could have salvation, but never enjoy the security of it because you chose not to believe your salvation was secure. In other words, even if you had security of salvation, what good does it do you in your everyday life,if you don't know or don't believe it exists. You would not enjoy the blessings of your security in this life. . . . Why would a person even WANT something he doesn't believe in? And how could that person believe in something of which he has no knowledge. Or if he had the knowledge and rejected it, then even if he had the security of the believer, he wouldn't know he had it. Of course, it's always a matter of faith. But how can one have faith in that of which he has no knowledge? Is not faith built on fact -- the fact of Christ's atonement? |
