Bible Question: Once I accept Christ as my personal Savior am I always saved until He comes for me? |
Bible Answer: Yes, of course. IF you have truly been saved and regenerated by the Holy Spirit, that is. Many people give God lip service by claiming to be saved when in fact God has never saved them. It is these He speaks of in Matthew 7:22-23 and 1 John 2:19. If you have truly been saved your life will show evidence of producing fruit(John 15:3) which is a product of being filled with the Holy Spirit for the purpose of producing fruitful works unto the Glory of God (Gal. 5:22-23). Without these works and evidence of fruit, there is no real faith (James 2). Other verses declaring God's majestic faithfulness to us who are His are John 6:35-45, 1 John 5:13, Romans 8:1. And countless others. Have a good day. :) Alive in Jesus, JibbyJee |
