Bible Note: Dear S.W., You cite the epistle to the Galatians: O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain. (Galatians 3:1-4) Then you comment, "How could they have 'suffered so many things in vain', if they never could loose their salvation? Paul was most certainly aware that they could." (sic) This is Paul correcting an error in these Galatian Christians. Are you suggesting that Christians will never suffer? If not, then what is your point? Paul is not saying that they could lose their salvation in this passage at all. I haven't finished reading your posts, but so far you haven't done a very good job of supporting your claim. Making unsubstantiated assertions is not the same as building a sound Biblical argument.
