Subject: What does "perish" mean? |
Bible Note: Hank Read Hebrews 6 Also read James I think brother James tells us faith without works is dead Dont misunderstand me here Gods Gift to us is salvation thru The Blood Of Jesus only the Blood of Christ not works. Now James says Faith without works is dead well as a christian dont we need to go to church, Read the Bible, Love one another etc etc ... God does not take the Gift back but we can give it back or walk away from it the Bible speaks for itself, are you going to deny what scripture says?...Now Jesus did say that none would be taken from him John 10:28-30 but we can walk away on our own he wont leave us but we can leave him. The Bible speaks of apostates does it not?..Ones who have been believers but forsaken their way read 2nd Peter. Also are you denying what the Bible plainly says in Hebrews 10:26 FOR IF WE SIN WILLFULLY THERE NO LONGER REMAINS A SACRAFICE. Also look at the NIV wow its kind of scary to go and sin deliberatly after recieving the knowledge of christ READ Heb 10:26-31 26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, 27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. 28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”£ and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”£ 31 It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Now im not going to argue this point I have stated my position "With Scripture" now I say to you.. Do the same. I say these things in Love But I will not sugar coat what scripture says. I also believe in true repentance meaning you must turn from your sin and not go back to your former ways. Jesus said you must be born again to see the kingdom. Well thats all I have to say on this matter Hank please do reply but do so in an unargumentative way state your point with scripture. I believe from reading your other posts on this forum that you are a good Christian man who Loves the things of God, so Take care and I look forward to seeing your post God Bless You... |
