Subject: Sin unto death |
Bible Note: Good morning tenderheart, I like that screenname, it's nice. I don't think that is the sin unto death, because Messiah said Himself in John 17:12 that those whom God gave to Him He has kept and not lost them. There are those (like me who got busy and forgetful and not even realizing it, wandered away, but not so far I couldn't hear Him calling me back) and then there are those who played the game and gave lip service for awhile but they never had a real and personal relationship with the Savior (they were never "saved/born again"). Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't think anyone who truly knew the joy and warmth of God's love could ever walk away and deny the reality of what they had once known. There are different views on the "once saved, always saved" issue and I'm not looking to go there in debate or heated discussion, but I do think that if I'd died while I was away, I would have gone home to Him, but would have forfeited any rewards that may have once been mine. Since you asked :-) Nice to meet you, sweet sister Hope we can continue to study our Father's word together Cheri |
