Bible Note: Greetings DL Respectfully, sir, I disagree with the idea/conclusion that Rev 22:19 automatically means someone's name is there to begin with. The verse is saying that if they had any hope at all of being saved it was lost when they perverted the Word of God, thereby forfeiting their place in the Tree of Life (or Book) forever. You still didn't take my question to it's full extent. If Jesus was the one who started the good work in you, and the Bible says He will finish it (that's a promise!) then you are saying He fails to do what He purposes to do. Phi. 1:6 directly contradicts your interpretation. So does 1 John 2:19. We must base our doctrine in light of all of Scripture. In the Potter's Service, JibbyJee |
