Subject: Heb 6:4-6 |
Bible Note: Only God can read the motives of the heart. True repentance is accepted by God. The Holy Spirit moves upon the hearts of men to bring them to repent. There have been a few other post on this thread that I have read. They also give good insight on this question. Can you loose your salvatiion? Yes, by rejecting the life giver and standing with those who hate him. The choice is always yours as I said before. Judas made his choice. He could have repented, but instead he was only distrought over his plan not working. What about the rich man who asked Christ what he lacked. He chose not to sell all he had and follow Christ. The parable of the vineyard again a good example. The priest knew that Jesus was talking about them. Isa5:1-7,Mk12:1-12. They knew Jesus was from God.Mk12;14 They acknowldeged that he was true and taught he way of God. They still plotted his death. There are those who rejected Jesus then that latter came to believe. Anyone who is truly sorry for their sin and ask for forgiveness and puts away their sin and walks in truth will be accepted by Christ. You must choose which side you want to be on. You can't flip flop back and forth over and over again. |
