Bible Question: Romans 8: 38, 39 Matthew 25: 30 is there security of the believer or not |
Bible Answer: Please do not allow the plain teaching that the believer is eternally secure to be cast in doubt by an unclear statement about a servant in a parable. We do know that Jesus has promised eternal life to those who believe. This is based on the fact that they have repented of sin and does not yet depend on their future faithfulness and service. We do not know what the earthly master in Matthew 25 meant to be done to his unprifitable servant. But it was an earthly consequence. He as a man did not have the power to cast anyone into hell. And our Lord will not cast his servant out of heaven even if his works on earth have been null or useless. They may be burned up but, he will be saved from the fire. |
