Bible Note: No sir! I don't think that John 6:39 contradicts 2 Peter. It cant. However, I do think that when God says "That all He has given Me, I should lose nothing," that we cant give up our salvation. Look closely at the language used."Should," "may". It sounds like it is Gods desire to see this happen. But not everyone will do what God desires. Not if God has given us free will, right? Read 2 Peter 2:20 please, it says: "For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and are overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first." I don't think that the false prophets were ever saved, but it speaks of those who had the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It still sounds to me as if you can throw away the gift that you have been given. And then the state you are in is a BAD one. |
