Bible Question (short): Once saved always saved ??? |
Question (full): The question of salvation came up between a friend and myself. He and I agree that once saved always saved, except in the event that you reject God. Well if that is true then we then have to define rejection. He thinks by some undertermined amount of sinning and or lack of good works you are in essence "rejecting God". Where I would define rejection as a state of mind that says " I dont want God or what He has to offer". Now I guess what really bothers me is in my mind I choose to believe in Christ and the work He did but I am not doing so well in the works department. Is my salvation in jeopardy? I have always thought of it this way, get saved....go to heaven. do good works ......be blessed in this world and in heaven. Dont do good works and sin.....curses in this world but still go to heaven. LOL im starting to confuse myself :) Any clarity in this MUCH appreciated |
