Bible Note: Dear S.W. (AKA Merv), You wrote, "In Acts 5:1-11 Ananias and Sapphira lies to the holy Spirit and they both are judged immediately. Comments: If christians freely may continue to live in sins, why did Ananias and Sapphira die? Who do you think killed them? Who allowed them to 'be killed'?" (sic) According to Hebrews 12, Christians can and will be chastened. I am a bit confused here. Are you suggesting that Ananias and Sapphira lost their salvation? If so, on what are you basing such a position? I do not see anything in the Scriptures to support such a notion. You also cite Revelation 2:18-26; 7:14; and 16:15; verses that have nothing to do with loss or retention of salvation. Frankly, you've got a lot of muddled thinking here that does not support your premise at all. In Him, Doc |
