If we could lose our salvation, then Jesus would have to suffer over and over again in order to take away our sins just like the bulls and goats under the old covenant. -Hebrews 9:26
Salvation can't be lost.. you can't untruth the truth.. this man is lost.. he's not saved if he thinks we can do anything to add to the finished works of Christ..
@@GraceByFaith-86 What man? I didn't catch his name, but, are you speaking of the man speaking in this video? He is saying that once saved, always saved.
See Ga 2 : 2 Niv bible The whole New T is replete about warnings concerning losing your salvation See Rev 3 : 16 if they weren't believers why would he say that to them .
@@biblebill6206 the problem with your argument is that you're assuming everyone the NT is talking to are born-again believers, not so. The NT audience is the church, the whole church and not just believers. Very VERY big difference! Not everybody in church is a christian. Being part of the church doesn't mean that you've been born-again, had your sins washed away, and given a regenerated heart that longs to obey His commandments. The church is a much broader demographic with sub-demographics including true believers, potential would-be believers, false converts, and blatant unbelievers. And just it makes sense that way since the NT tends to switch between those target-audiences throughout different passages.
In my humble opinion, this may be the best video you have ever done, Corey ! The importance of this subject can never be overstated, and I agree with everything that you said! 💯 When Jesus said, "It is Finished," he did a complete work. Nothing else needed to be, or could ever be done to secure our eternal salvation but the Cross of Calvary on that hill called Golgotha. Glory be to the Lamb of God that was slain, and taketh away the sins of the world, and now lives forevermore!!! Hallelujah! This type of teaching makes me happy! 😊 Thank you, Corey, God bless you and continue on in Jesus's name.
It's pride in their own perceived self righteousness. They believe they've reached a level of righteousness of their own accord and project it onto other believers. Some people need to find their identity in Christ and not their own idea of themselves.
AMEN Brother Corey. I was one who belived in this. But now praise the Lord I know better... Romans Chapter 11 verse 29 is clear 29) For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
Amen Brother Corey Amen! He that begun a good work in you is able to perform it until the day of the Jesus Christ. Phil 1:6 KJV I'm so glad salvation is of the LORD! Thank you for this clear and biblical explanation! Amen!
Reading some of these comments I am wondering if anyone heard what Corey even said. Guys, put down your biases and presuppositions and read the word of God with an open mind ready to accept what it truly says. Scripture is so clear that it almost hurts, a truly saved person will not lose their salvation nor will their forfeit it by walking away. There are so many examples I can give but the best one comes from Christ Himself in John 6:37-44 where He declares three times that He will lose none of all whom the Father gives Him. To say that someone can lose their salvation in any sense, whether by sin or through apostasy is to call Jesus a liar. God is the one who saves and causes a person to be born again, and it is He who will keep that person in the faith until their very last day. He will preserve His own and they will never fall away, because He is greater than all and no one can snatch them out of His hand (John 10:28-30), including yourself.
Amen! People don’t realize that if the Son fails to obey the Father’s command to lose none, then the Son sins. If the Son sins, He can’t be God; he just a fallen man like the rest of us. Then, He has to die for His own sins and is disqualified from bearing our sins. We are all yet lost in our sins and worship a false gods. If anti-OSAS is true, we are all going to hell!
Sir Corey put in a lot of work and is very knowledgeable in the scriptures. I thank him for his daily videos and look forward for his contents. Now, I'm in no way near any kind of position to debate any topic of these scriptures. I would love to hear Corey and Aaron Gallagher debating this topic. John 10: 27-30. Need to be looked at in more depth. I know Corey use this as his go to scripture as for as can't loose your salvation. If we look at John 17 chapter, it's hard not to conclude that Jesus was talking about his disciples. What do you think? I'm just trying to learn.
@@hermansmikle6685 verse 20, “But I do not ask for these only, but also for those believing in Me through their word.” Jesus does pray for the Twelve, but also He extends the request to include all believers who follow the Twelve. In John 10, doesn’t He talk about having other sheep who are not of this flock?
Brother, thank you for the special message. That was so much more understanding and makes perfect sense in the way you break it down and restate it. Glory to Father Yahweh for this, thank you for your faithful service to our Adonai Jesus Christ!
When Jesus said “I AM,” that was the translation of Hebrew “YHWH.” When you consider that Jesus is the Word, that is, the Person of God who represents God to the world, it makes sense that YHWH is Jesus, not the Father.
How many times are you allowed to fall short, revert, back slide, etc.? If God started work in you and you're truly His, how is losing salvation a possibility?
@@teejaybee9 The NT didn't begin till after Jesus died, and ascended to Heaven. Judas had not been born of God at that time. He was a Jew, not a born again believer with the HS abiding in him.
It isn't. That's what Corey is trying to explain. Regeneration is a once in a lifetime conversion. At conversion, we become a New Creation. Back-siding can also be seen as rebellion, like a teenager does when he grows up and thinks they know more than their parents, and would rather do things their way, lol. It's also called, "testing God". I tested Him for over 10 years, and He didn't leave me. He was always there. I suffered consequences, and He was still there to set me back up on my feet. He will never leave you/me, or, forsake you/me, amen, and Hallelujah!!!! We are blessed more than we can comprehend.
I’m a newer Believer ( been in church my whole life ) but it finally all “clicked” last year and I’ve been reading and digging in gods word like never before. Would love to hear your thoughts on how Hebrews 10: 26-30 pertains to this topic
Amen....to me, in my opinion, to say you can loose your salvation is to say what Jesus Christ did on the cross was not good enough, how can someone truly be saved if you don't trust what Jesus did on the cross..God bless you pastor..
Can you do a video explaining Hebrews 10:29. Specifically my friend has a problem with the word “sanctified” in that verse. He interprets it as “justified”. Thus he concludes a saved person is losing their salvation if they sin willfully because the text says they were sanctified. Let me know if you can help a brother out. Much love, great job on this video! Thanks
Even as a new Christian this is so simple for me to understand. My rebuttal to someone saying that you can lose salvation is if that was the case why would there be a need for Jesus? In that case just follow the law because if a sin causes you to lose salvation then that's no different than the law prior to Christ. God knew we wouldn't follow the law so that's why he brought us Jesus. Also God knows we will continue to sin which is why we couldn't follow the law in the first place..? How could we owe something that is already paid?
2 Timothy 2:13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful- for he cannot deny himself. Faithless = without faith. What makes you a Christian is to put your trust in the Lord. None of us are without sin. None of us walk de Christian life perfectly.
I think people is lost on behavior when it comes to salvation. How can you be save and live any kind of way??? So you can remain saved not changing??? The Bible is a book of behavior it tells how your behavior should be if you are a believer and follower of Christ. Christ can help us but he doesn't make us change. Just like the devil has a behavior to follow him so does God. No one can say that God is the only one that can change you. You have to do some changing too.
I agree that we cannot lose our salvation and once we have accepted Jesus as Saviour, we are eternally secure. Once we are saved, we are always saved. We can lose our salvation and, if after professing salvation we backslide and lose our faith, we are lost. The more likely word I would use is forfeit then lose (soul of salvation). Matthew 16:26 kjv explains that we more than likely can forfeit salvation when we turn from Jesus' gospel-for it is essential for salvation. Stating it properly, Jesus' gospel and our faith in his gospel are essential. Jesus and his gospel are both narrow and wide. We embrace Jesus' gospel by faith to become saved, and that makes it narrow.
Okay, I see what you mean by referring back to Matthew 16:26 when it asked what will it profit a man who gains the world but forfeits his soul. But what you have to understand is that God is the Alpha and Omega so he knows what everyone’s destination is before they’re even conceived. Us humans only see on the surface. In other words, we think when we see someone lean towards the world, they’ve fallen away, but God knows what’s in their heart and what their final outcome in life will be. Now let’s say we see someone who appears to be leaning towards the Lord, we will assume that they are on the narrow path to Heaven. But do we know what’s in their heart? Not really. That’s why Jesus will say I never knew you you worker of iniquity. Think about this, there were 2 criminals that were crucified right along with Jesus. They probably did bad all their lives. However, one of them asked Jesus to remember him in Heaven. Jesus turned right around and assured him salvation just because of his belief in him.
@@animegoatforever2571 I agree and that one person was forgiven and save before the death of Jesus. But it never said the individual was baptized or not but we can confirm that that individual knew of him. I like the thought provoking dialect. May God bless you!
Read the Bible - not just at church but especially alone. Give yourself an interesting book in the Bible that interest you to read and then, continue reading on. God is talking to you when you read his word. You'll be surprised what his reply is. Pray. Pray daily and all of the time. Pray by yourself (when you wake, before you eat, and before you sleep). Pray about the things you are grateful of, the snares you escapes. Pray to God, that he may sanctify you and all of the people on Earth (lost or saved.. we all struggle). Deny yourself. Love God above all and love your brothers and sisters as much as you love yourself. These are powerful commandments but everyone (including you) is better when you're able to keep them. God is coming. Let's everyone that is of and in Him be waiting x
The contidicing is when you say ( its true if you stop believing you go to hell) but then say you can’t lose salvation. Salvation is what, being saved and delivered from sin and hell. Secondly, you said if salvation can be took, that means what what Jesus did for us loses its power. Well my brothers and sisters Romans 10:26 kjv: for if we sin willfully after that which we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin…… Which is what you said would have to have to happen. My brothers and sisters in Christ, if you keep sinning and sinning after knowing what sin is, there will be no longer a sacrifice of sin. Who knows how long it takes for the sacrifice to no longer remain, but just the fear alone should make us want to stay right, Amen
Context is extremely important in Hebrews (not Romans 10) as well as all letters of the Bible. This letter was written to Hebrew people, mixed with believing Jews and unbelieving Jews. This passage was not written to you and I initially, so we must look at the historical context of the book and the original audience. I heard a preacher once say, "the Bible was not written to you, but it was written for you." Having said that, the writer here is warning the unbelieving Jews who have heard the gospel yet rejected it, that if they sin again, then their system of sacrifices cannot atone for their sins because Christ is the atonement for sins, not their sacrifices. Christ fulfills the Mosaic sacrificial system making the sacrifices null and void for anyone who attemps to use them after He has already provided atonement. The "sin" in question here can also be the willful rejection of Christ after receiving the knowledge of the truth. Their system of sacrifices no longer work to provide atonement. This cannot mean that if we sin willfully after we are saved then we lose our salvation, because that would be contradicting Paul in Romans 8. This is not speaking to modern day Christians who commit a sin, even a sin they know is wrong. A person living in willful, unrepentant sin is only giving evidence that conversion has not taken place (see 1 John 3:3-10). True believers are not immune to committing sin, even willful sin. But, the truly saved willl not continue in a lifestyle of sin, they will desire to repent truly and forsake that sin. Read John 6:37-44, three times Jesus declares "I will raise them up on the last day." The "them" is referring to the truly saved people. To suggest that someone can lose their salvation is to call Jesus a liar.
@@spovlock51Your explanation is patient and good. I would add one more detail. The verse alludes to Old Testament sacrifices. Namely, there is no sacrifice for willful sin in the Mosaic Law.
@@jamesapt66 Lk 21 : 36 and Lk 20 : 35 worthy is the better translation Christ said in Rev I am about to spit you out of my mouth because they are lukewarm Christians if they weren't real believers why would he bother to say that to them ? wouldn't make any sense
Put Gods Commandments on your fourthhead and keep them it dont matter what other people think or do everybody is responsible for themselves the end of satans system is near yeshua is coming back soon be ready keep your house and family in order
1 Tim 4:1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons. "This is the Spirit saying so" Yes Corey you can walk away and lose what you call salvation which I don't believe is salvation. When we believe and are baptised, we have embarked on a journey. Those who remain in Christ till their last day will be raised on that great day. They are the ones who will be declared saved. 1 Corinth 15:54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortality has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written; "Death is swallowed up in victory" 58 Therefore, my brethren be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord
Romans 11:19-24 NKJV You will say then, "Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in." [20] Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. [21] For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. [22] Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off. [23] And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. [24] For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
Question. I was always taught once saved always saved. I know a pastor who's a family member who has cheated consistently on his wife, still is. He brings up the once saved always saved but doesn't walk in obedience. Not asking for him specifically but what category does this fall in. Is he truly a Christian? Is he heaven sure? The wife filed for divorce after 30 yrs and he's wanting her to stay so he can still live apart but for finance sake, wants to remain married.
that person is saved sealed with the holy spirit until redemption day just like you are! but he will not grow in his walk he will be grieving the holy spirit he could receive chastisement but cant lose the spirit or justification or imputed righteousness until redemption day , he will be disqualified from being a pastor / overseer/ Sheppard but he saved and sealed no mater behavior or obedience!
Thanks brother, I hope you answer this Verse also while listening to you. So what does the End of the Bible mean when God says He will Remove that person Revelation 22:19
I pray you have more success than me when I asked this many weeks ago in a similar video. I would also add Heb 6:1-8 which raises the question can those who are not born again, receive/experience the Holy Ghost? I cannot see how that can be a "yes." Also, if there is a "falling away" what do those who say you cannot loose salvation think people fall away from??? 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@hermansmikle6685 That is the beauty of Heb 6. It forces one in that camp to explain away the Holy Ghost to those who cannot be renewed unto repentance...🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@CCD_106 They fall away from the "Church". The Church we see, isn't as big as it looks. A person can call themselves a Christian, because, they "think" they are, and never experience regeneration based on the truth of scripture. Plus, they are turning to believing in the doctrine of demons. If they were all born again believers, would they believe a lie? The Bible says they wouldn't hear the voice of strangers. We know His voice.
Christ said in Rev I am about to spit you out of my mouth because they are luke warm Christians . Why would Christ say that if you couldn't lose your salvation ? and if they aren't real believers it wouldn't make any sense , why would he bother ? .
Bill you need a new bible. You just think those verses say that. Do they really say you can lose salvation or is that not really understanding them clearly?
You are talking about 2 TRUE gospels. What you have done is rightly divided the word of truth and told us about the gospel given to Paul which is a NEW, Different and BETTER gospel to not just the Jew, but to anyone who would believe in this 2nd TRUE gospel. I hate to say this Corey but I think many or most don't believe the gospel of grace given to Paul. They mix it with the Jewish alone gospel and they do not agree. The apostles CONVERTED to Pauls gospel. But you know all this. Thank you.
Man shut up.... THERE'S ONE GOSPEL..... you CLEARLY just LIED.... the SAME gospel that the apostle Paul peached was the SAME gospel that the disciples PREACHED
JUST GOING BY THE TITLE SALVATION ISNT A CHOICE OR DECISION YOU MAKE UNDER EMOTIONAL DISTRESS OR DO TO HYPE AND SMOKE SHOWS ITS A RESPONSE… OR ITS CARNAL AND THE LORD ISNT OBLIGATED TURN TOWARD GOD IT WILL CAUSE YOU TO REPENT AND RUN TO JESUS
How can the opostacy happen if they are not true believers? What Judas not an Apostle ? Many veres warn of once you put your hand to the plough... Hold onto your faith... Why call Me Lord, Lord... It is impossible once you have known the truth and turn your back you cannot be saved again...
I think we have to consider there is a difference between those who are "called" and those who are God's "chosen" (Matt 22:14). The "chosen" have "guaranteed" salvation or destruction (as indicated in Rom 9:19-23) and the "called" include multiple groups like those who can be saved but later fall away/be blotted out/etc.. In other words, the folks of Heb 6:1-9 would have been part of the "called" but not "chosen"... Let those with ears to hear, hear! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
One question , how much time do you spend on your knees each day and fast the two disciplines Christ always practiced . No one should talk about the bible unless they spend lots of time praying on your knees if possible . Praying is the true litmus test ,You have to walk the walk not just talk it .
@@ParticularBaptist 1 John 2:2 says, "And He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for our's only, but also for the sins of the whole world.". John 1:29, "The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him and saith, Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world.".
@@sandragambrel9721 Okay, everyone's sin debt was cancelled at the cross, and all sins have been propitiated for every single individual. Was the sin of unbelief forgiven at the cross?
@@ParticularBaptist No. How can a person receive anything, including forgiveness, from God, if they don't believe in God? The fearful, and unbelieving will experience a second death in the end.
Spoken like a true Calvinist...scripture says some will depart from the faith. Scripture says we are kept by the power of God through faith. Like the prodigal son we can walk away from our father and our inheritance. You admit that if someone stops believing then no longer saved, yet you say it's impossible for someone to stop believing. That's a true Calvinist belief even if you don't realize it. We have free will before we come to Christ and we have free will afterwards. It's our choice and whenever Christ returns everyone will face judgement for their own actions only......marvel not at this for the hour is coming in which all who are in the Graves will hear his voice and come forth those who have done good to the resurrection of life and those who have done evil to the resurrection of condemnation.....there is a difference between being saved made alive our conversion in the beginning and being resurrected unto life when Christ returns judgement our resurrection eternal salvation......
Before you are saved you are lost! Now if you become lost AGAIN you cannot be saved again!!! (That's not in the bible but that's what people essentially believe).... Otherwise, ONCE SAVED IS ALWAYS SAVED!!!!
Corey! Why do you think Jesus said, If you don't forgive others their trespasses, neither will your heavenly father forgive you your trespasses. if our Past present and future sins were forgiven? The blood of Jesus is there always for our sins.
Jesus preached Law to show people that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory if God.” The Jewish leaders had taught them to justify themselves through legalism. Jesus preached that perfection is required of any who pursue justification through self righteousness. But “There is none righteous, no, not one.” “All our righteousnesses are but menstrual rags.” Self-righteous legalism was the sin that damned the Pharisees. Repent of making yourself the object of your faith, and instead trust God and the blood of Christ.
I agree with ricksonora6656. To add to this, Jesus said that you are to be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect. Of course this is not possible since all have sinned and fall short of His glory, no one is righteous, no one is good save God alone, no one is perfect this side of heaven. God wants us to be perfect, to flee from sin, to follow after Him, obey His will and be imitators of God, but this is impossible for us to do because of our sinful nature. However, because of Jesus, who was the sinless lamb of God, paying the penalty for our sins, God sees us as the redeemed that fulfill His requirements for receiving the gift of eternal life. This of course does not give us a licence to sin so that grace my abound, since God's unmerited favor and His continued work in our hearts causes our wills to align with His. Our desire is to no longer to seek after fulfilling the evil desires of our old self, but to fulfill God's purpose in and for our new lives in Christ Jesus.
@@Cmedic57 Because as children of God, we are supposed to forgive others, like God has forgiven us. We are to live in the likeness of God. We can't be Christ like if we're holding a grudge against someone, with unforgiveness in our heart. Christians must forgive or God will not forgive us. That's His word. Unforgiveness opens doors and allow the enemy to attack and cause chaos in your life. Read Colossians 3:12-13
@@slimdude2011 I understand your point, however, we cannot live a Christ-like life in our own strength. Without the Holy Spirit regenerating our spirit which inherited the fallen nature of the first Adam, there is no way we can be righteous or sin-free, since flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God because of it's fallen state, and is at constant war with our spirit. Thankfully Jesus, who is God in flesh, provided a way out of the cycle of sin and death, by sacrificing his body in place of ours on the cross, setting us free from the cycle of sin and death, through His unmerited grace. For it is by grace you have been saved, and not by anything you have done. Not by works, lest any man should boast. Knowing I can do nothing to save myself, and that it is He who is both the author and finisher of my faith, I am humbled by this and so desire to follow such a magnanimous God with all my heart and with His loving guidance. Amen.
I don't know about this Corey. I think you can believe and then "lose" your belief. If I recall correctly, those who left the faith and were said to never return were those who were specifically false teachers.
He's talking about those who are sealed after having been born of God with the Holy Spirit..however the scriptures talk about those who initially believe and begin to pursue christ & they through deception fall from grace & end up departing from the faith before the miracle of new birth and receiving the gift of the Holy spirit happens
Christ died so that our sins could be forgiven, and we once more had the right to enter heaven. Baptism erases the stain of original sin and any sins committed. After Baptism, all sins committed have to be forgiven.
Having forgiveness of sins, still doesn't give us the freedom to continue living in sin. We are not supposed to take God's grace and His mercy for granted, thinking that we can live in sin freely, and expect to enter the kingdom of God... No! If this is what you're thinking, then you are mistaken. That's not how salvation works. You have to repent, turn away from your sins and live accordingly in obedience to God's word.
Will you stop using the word atonement? It’s called propitiation in the new covenant. Salvation is life eternal and sealed with His Spirit as a guarantee of eternal salvation so you either accepted or you never did. That’s what true biblical repentance is not in our fleshly sins but the sin of unbelief.
If I had hair I would comb it... Lol. If we are walking in obedience we won't lose it. But when Jesus says John 14 Matthew 5 1 John if he says he knows me but doesn't keep my commandments he is a liar. As well the fire wise and five foolish they still professed Jesus lord lord but he answered I never knew you because sounding the shofar is hearing his voice at the sound of the last trumpet we will go home. But how can one be saved yet live in sin ? He's burned off or being arrogant to the Jews replacing them burned off if they can lose their salvation we aren't once saved always saved because as well Revelation he who adds and takes away from this prophecy shall have their name blotted from the book of life. But if one is in obedience then you are saved. Constant repentance is constant sanctification. It's ongoing salvation. Just have to fight the good fight and walk in obedience. John 14 Matthew 5 if anyone teaching not to keep his commandments will be called the least in Heaven. Meaning the man when God sent the invites to the wedding but they didn't wanna come one had on the wrong garments and was tossed in the fiery furnace.
you know the kingdom Gospel/ circumcision pretty good now its time to learn what's for us , our Gospel which is the gospel of grace / uncircumcision , nothing to do with keeping commandments obedience or endurance that's for Israel under law we trust the gospel revealed to Paul ( 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 )we receive and are sealed with the holy spirit UNTIL redemption day !! not contingent on behavior or endurance , he saved us he seals us he keeps us , Ephesians 1:13-14 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. we are his purchased possession. he owns us he will lose none he owns ! your failure to rightly divide the truth (2tim2:15) is what has you all mixed up you mixing both messages together instead of dividing them like we should Ephesians 2:11-12 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
Ezekiel 36:26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you…. This promise is for the Jews during the 1000 years reign, not for us now. We cannot lose our salvation simply because we can’t lose what we don’t have. Workout your salvation, Everyday we are to pick up our cross, deny ourselves and follow Jesus. AND THOSE WHO ENDURE TILL THE END WILL BE SAVED
4:00 This is not a certificate of debt. That is one of the many false teachings that arose from some since the Protestant Reformation, as the church has splintered repeatedly due to the fallout. The word literally is a handwritten record and it says "to/into the dogmas". This is a record of what laws you break. That is what Christ nailed to the Cross, the list of sins you committed that were recorded against you. It has nothing to do with debt and payment. The blood of Christ on the Cross is the Pascha blood, as Paul directly says in 2 Corinthians 5 and which protects us from the wrath of God that is coming upon the world. There is no legal sense of substitution or legal payment. That was all fabricated and injected into translations, but it is not there in the Greek. I challenge you to dig deep into it and don't allow figurative interpretations of the Greek words to muddy your mind, not the false theologies that have sprung up among the American and British churches over the past 500 years. Let the Greek speak for itself. I'll also challenge you to completely drop the Hebrew text that was created around 900AD and stick with the LXX Greek from 250BC. I'm sure if you dig into these two issues deeply enough and honestly, you will come to agreement on these matters.
Wow people get a clue, how about the clear spoken word of God telling us exactly how we are saved. . . By faith through grace. You people are a shame to God and us sheep you put in danger everyday with your ignorance and refusal to learn the most basic words spoken by God.
@@marty5182 Answer the question, and give reasons. It’s just a question; there wasn’t enough to assume the person was what you thought. Your answer is doctrinally true, but your attitude is wrongggg! What if the question came from a baby Christian or someone who hasn’t heard the gospel?
God can do whatever He decides to do. However, He has made it clear that He won’t save through water baptism. He saves us through faith alone, apart from any ceremonies or good deeds. Water baptism is how we publicly declare what God did for us. Dunking symbolizes Christ’s death and resurrection. It also symbolizes that we recognized that we were spiritually dead and God gave us the spiritual new birth. It is our first act of obedience after God has saved us. I thought I was a Christian because my parents had me baptized when I was 5. But when God saved me when I was 18, I got baptized the right way, for the right reason.
Read Ezekiel chapter 18. The Father, Yahweh himself tells us in his own words exactly what happens to backsliders and righteous men who turn back to sin.
Sorry Corey your wrong on the we have to keep believing to be saved or stay saved. We believe one time into salvation the moment we believe the gospel of grace. The scripture is clear if we believe not he abides faithful he cannot deny himself. You just ruined the whole gospel message with that statement.
Salvation from what exactly? A funny book's claim. Really the boogie monster? It is so weird how loosely you use "it is true and it's a fact" so not factual! ND all a matter of interpretation and opinion kind sir
By how you go on and on about this, over and over, are you just out to prove you are right and how smart you are? I’d be careful with that. As a general rule, we should live everyday like we could lose our salvation even if we cannot. What’s the big deal other than you being on a personal mission to show your something special. I don’t get why you go on and on about this same issue. Truthfully, just as good an arguments can be made against once saved always saved. No verse says that directly so live everyday like judgements tomorrow. It’s that simple.
