Subject: Can a believer lose his salvation? |
Bible Note: Dear geoffc: I have been to your website and checked it out. Sir, while I do not agree with you on the subject of the Believer's Security (or lack of same), I do heartily commend you on well-researched, articulate answers to this and related questions. You set an excellent example for providing a clear, orderly presentation of your beliefs. (For what it's worth, everyone else (exluding me) in my local church and entire denomination would agree with you that it is possible for one to fall from grace and lose his salvation.) Welcome to this website. Be patient with us. Some of us, on either side of any given issue, tend to get a little heated when debating doctrine. (smile) --JVH0212 |
