Bible Question:
Can you question apostasy in light of the following? 2Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 1Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Luke 8:13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. Acts 5:37 After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed. Heb 3:12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. These appear to speak to apostasy past, present and future do they not? Can you really question it and if so how? Stand in His grace, WOS |
Bible Answer: Yes,I do question apostacy particularly in Luke 8:13 the word never took root. those that fall away were never saved in the first place. He says and a stranger will not they follow,but will flee from him; for they know not the voice of strangers John10: see al of John 10. the people in the passages you mentioned were as hirelingss and were never truely committed in the first place like Demas Phil. 2:20 and 2nd Timothy 4:10. when ever I prepare bible messesages I sometimes use atheist literature to weigh thier unbelief,most people are afraid to even visit an atheist web site, unfortunately there are some self professed Christians that have weak and wavering faith. Again these folk are not ever saved in the first place they are just pretenders. that is why Jesus says in Matthew 7:21 not everyone that saith unto me Lord Lord shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. I am talking about saved for real and not just Church goers. Yet you make a good point for a theory. |
