Subject: Reconciling Rom 8:39 with Heb 10:26 |
Bible Note: Multiple beliefs on this subject..................................... The belief that Kalos is proposing in this thread is commonly referred to as "once saved, always saved". There are large numbers of Christians who believe that it is true that a person who has truly been saved cannot ever completely turn away from God and lose their salvation. There are also large numbers of Christians who believe that it is possible for a person to become a true Christian, and then later in life to change their mind and decide to reject God and His salvation. I believe that this second option is true (search for post number 15952). Those who believe this second option are often concerned by the verses Hebrews 6:4-6, and wonder if they can ever return to God after rejecting Him. I and other Christians believe that it is still possible to return to God (see post 257332). For anyone reading these posts, please keep in mind that both perspectives are considered to be orthodox. In other words, both are reasonable interpretations of scripture and have been accepted throughout centuries of church tradition. Therefore, please try to read support for both sides before coming to your own conclusion. |
