Bible Question (short): How can you say Simon wasn't saved? |
Question (full): jcsav, In post 142745 you said "Simeon believed and was Baptized. Did that make him saved. No. Maybe he got it together later on." I presume you mean Simon, not Simeon (Luk 2:25-34; Act 13:1, 15:14). Some doubt his salvation was not real based on verses 18-24. But, I think he was in the quandry Paul mentions in Romans 7:14-25 or may not of understood completely what was going on. He had certain powers before (vs 10) and they may have been gone and wanted something back. Verse 24 shows me he got it together right away. Searcher |
