Subject: Can you lose your salvation? |
Bible Note: Why are you telling me that? I have no need for you to lecture me. Quoting my own Note, I reiterate: "Please note: the information above is NOT MY OPINION of anything. These are objective, verifiable FACTS. There is no place in the King James Bible in which the words lose and salvation or lost and salvation occur in the same verse. It just isn't there. "Note: I am not necessarily saying the Bible does or does not teach these doctrines. ALL I am saying is that you will not find those statements in the Bible IN THOSE EXACT WORDS." Did I not make it plain that I am not discussing the doctrine of Eternal Security vs Eternal Insecurity? My note merely addressed the original question, which was: 'It says a few times in the bible to be careful not to lose your salvation. I thought that "once saved" is "always saved".' My point was and is 1) It does NOT say in the Bible to be careful not to lose your salvation. 2) The Bible does not say "once saved always saved." All I did was to clarify what the Bible does and does not SAY. I was not getting into interpretation. So why do you reply to me and lecture me on "our assurance of salvation"? Also, I see no need or biblical precedent for referring to Christ as "the 2k yr old man we call Jesus." The Lord Jesus Christ has many names and titles in the Bible. "The 2,000-year-old man" is not one of them. |
