AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 8:1 Therefore there is now no condemnation [no guilty verdict, no punishment] for those who are in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior]. [John 3:18] |
Bible Question: I don't really understand this whole concept myself. Let's say someone is saved, then goes through a time of doubt (Job, for example). Are they still saved? Also, what about the Catholics, who believe that salvation comes from baptism and confirmation? |
Bible Answer: phruubeljiie, You have to understand the term "Salvation" to know the answer to your question. Salvation means to have eternal life with God. It is John 3:16 "...whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have Eternal Life". To have eternal life ( salvation ), one must believe in Him ( Jesus). So the equation is: Believe in Jesus equals Salvation. Now, your question: Is Salvation revocable? The answer is simple, if a part of the equation is taken away, the equation ceases. One thing you have to remember in this salvation business. Faith will have to come first. From Faith you will have Hope and from that Hope, you will have Love. What else do one needs? NONE. NGOP |
