NASB | Ephesians 1:13 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation--having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 1:13 In Him, you also, when you heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation, and [as a result] believed in Him, were stamped with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit [the One promised by Christ] as owned and protected [by God]. [John 7:39; Acts 2:33] |
Subject: Can you lose your salvation? |
Bible Note: Hi WOS, Actually, it was Ps25 who introduced the timing issue as part of their "proof". While I agree that we cannot loose salvation, that the born-again don't die-again, I find Ps25's argument faulty and as a result unconvincing. I think that Lookn correctly identified the error, and that we all do well to understand that even though we may have the right answer, we need to be able to correctly support it. Personally, I think Lookn has correctly identified numerous examples of faulty interpretation and unsupported arguments, while not becoming argumentative. I personally commend lookin's tenacity in addressing the issues that have arisen in this thread. But I'm none to certain of the advisability of initiating the debate you seem to have in mind. However, I would be willing to discuss such with you if you so desired. Love in Christ, Mark |
