Subject: One example of loosing salvation NT |
Bible Note: Your right Scripture does not exist in a vaccuum. Thats why I don't use John 15 only to support why I believe "once saved, always, saved" as many are teaching it these days is unBibical. we also have Scripture such as John 16:1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended (John 16:1) KJV I have said all this to you to keep you from falling away. (RSV) I HAVE told you all these things, so that you should not be offended (taken unawares and falter, or be caused to stumble and fall away). (AMP) I have said all these things to you to keep you from falling away. (ESV) These things I have spoken to you, that you should not be made to stumble. (NKJV) These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not lose faith. (21st Century King James Version) I have told you these things so that you will not turn back. (Worldwide English New Testament) I have told you this so that you will not give up your faith (TEV) 4624 skandalizo (skan-dal-id'-zo) ("scandalize") from 4625; TDNT - 7:339,1036; v AV - offend 28, make to offend 2; 30 1) to put a stumbling block or impediment in the way, upon which another may trip and fall, metaph. to offend 1a) to entice to sin 1b) to cause a person to begin to distrust and desert one whom he ought to trust and obey 1b1) to cause to fall away 1b2) to be offended in one, i.e. to see in another what I disapprove of and what hinders me from acknowledging his authority 1b3) to cause one to judge unfavourably or unjustly of another 1c) since one who stumbles or whose foot gets entangled feels annoyed 1c1) to cause one displeasure at a thing 1c2) to make indignant 1c3) to be displeased, indignant These things have I spoken. Particularly what is mentioned in the two last chapters. Be offended. “That ye should not be stumbled.” May not fall away from the faith, nor receive any injury to your souls, as that man does to his body who stumbles or falls over a stone or block in the way which he has not discovered. (from Adam Clarkes Commentary on John 16:1) and: Heb. 6:4-6 4 For as touching those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, 6 and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. 7 For the land which hath drunk the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessing from God: 8 but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned. Heb. 6:4-8 ASV Love in Christ New Creature |
