Bible Note: Hi, CurtMan (The)! You make some nice points... But what did Jesus say about those who choose to drop of His hands? Did He say you are forgiven, go do as you please? Did the parable of the seeds mean that "well some of the seeds just had bad luck so don't worry, be happy"? Did not Christ say THOSE WHO LOOK BACK CANNOT BE MY DISCIPLES? Explained who the Pharisees and Sadducees blasphemed against the Holy Spirit--was it not because they rejected Christ? And, if someone claiming all the Biblical text that bring salvation than reject Jesus because "life is so unbearable, so unfair, so heartbreaking, so poor, so rich, so long, so short, so complicated... are they not rejecting Christ when they commit themselves to ending their lives or taking the lives of their spauses and children and then their own? Don't get me wrong... a person who takes his or her life (regardless of the reason) has only God to answer to (just as all others who kill with words or thought or inaction...)--Judas may well have received Divini dispensation during the last moments of his life--, and only God has the final answer! But for a Christian to say, "well it is Biblical, we can't lose salvation once we get it, cause Christ said so" he or she is delusional. Each one of us must remove the old self (carnal) and put on the new self (spirit) and serve God with all of our mind, body, and spirit. God Bless! Angel |
