Bible Note: I beg to differ. Eternal life is not temporary. It is conditional. In a broader sense, what does the Bible as a whole, from cover to cover, state concerning this matter? For every promise God has given, were there not conditions which the recipient must meet? Or do we simply claim the promises and reject the requirements? Claim the love and grace and forget the fact that He is not only a loving God, filled with grace, but a righteous and just God who expects us to obey is commands, and that He WILL administer FINAL judgment? I do not advocate salvation through works, for those who do, do not know scripture. They deceive themselves. What I do advocate is that we are saved by Grace through faith, and that if we have true faith, we WILL adhere to the "whole" WORD of the one in whom our faith lies. And that likewise, those who believe in salvation by Grace through faith should teach as commanded, rather than what they can not prove scripturally, i.e. once saved, always saved. For every scripture one can provide in support of OSAS, any good student of the Bible can provide another opposing it… 1Ti 1:4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: GB |
