Subject: One example of loosing salvation NT |
Bible Note: Greetings, New Creature. It seems to me that the issue of eternal security is clearly taught in scripture and also depends on whether you have man center view of salvation or a God centered one. After all what God starts He finishes, such as in salvation. Phil 1:6 For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. And who is the author or our faith? Hebrews 12:1,2 make it clear who that is, God Himself. Now certainly an earthly author may start a book and not finish it. It is a common occurrence. But what about he Sovereign, Omnipotent, Omniscient, God of the bible. Does He work a work and not complete it, especially since ther Holy Writ says He will coplete it? So in brief, nothing is able to seperate us from the salvation we have in Christ. For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. John 10:28,29 |
