✝️ Blessings in the name of JESUS on this 21st (7-7-7) day of February.✝️
The #7, the LORD’s number, represents HIS Perfection. More on this at a later date.
We are continuing with the fallacy of Part 2 “Once saved, always saved”. Part 1 was on February 7th.
To Continue . . . . The Holy Bible is very clear that the unrighteous (compromise, lusts of the flesh) will not inherit the kingdom of GOD (1 Corinthians 6:9-11). If someone has confessed their faith in JESUS CHRIST but then turns back to the works of the flesh (Galatians 5:19-21), he is spiritually lost. (Hebrews 12:14) teaches that without holiness we will not see GOD. True holiness comes from JESUS, but if we forsake JESUS, we will not be holy, and if we are not holy, we will not see the FATHER. Verse 15 reads, “Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of GOD; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled.” Clearly, the believer must remain accepting of GOD’s practical working grace or the result will be failure and defilement. This disproves the doctrine of eternal security.
⚠️ Warnings Against Backsliding ⚠️
There are a large number of scriptures in the New Testament which warn against falling away and give evidence that salvation can be lost and faith destroyed. The parable of the Sower in (Matthew 13:3-9) illustrates well the reality of people being given the hope of eternal salvation for a while but when temptation came, they gave in as they did not allow the Word of GOD to have taken a deep root. (1 Timothy 4:1) warns that some would “depart from the faith,” and (Galatians 5:1) warns us to “stand fast…and be not entangled again.” The Jews that turned back to the law after receiving salvation were “fallen from grace” (v4). In (1 Timothy 6:9-11) speaks of those who “erred from the faith.” The saints (church) are instructed in (Hebrews 3:12-14) to take heed lest they depart from GOD with an evil heart of disobedience to HIS WORD. If a believer, as a temple of the HOLY SPIRIT, defiles the temple that was once clean, GOD will destroy that temple (1 Corinthians 3:16-17).
GOD gave the congregations in Revelation an opportunity to repent because many of them had fallen and defiled their garments. (2 Peter 2:20-22) “For if after they have escaped the corruption of the world through the knowledge of our LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST, they are AGAIN entangled in it and overcome, they are WORSE off at the end than they were at the beginning. For It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the HOLY COMMANDMENT delivered unto them.” This Scripture speaks without doubt of those who had been given the hope of Salvation but were entangled again and illustrates how their eternal end would be worse because they had turned away from the TRUTH (JESUS CHRIST).
👉Be Not Moved Away
There is a multitude of scriptural evidence proving that when people have accepted JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR, they still have the power (free will) to turn away from their original faith in JESUS and give up their gift of salvation. It is for this reason the apostles challenged the saints (The “church”) repeatedly that they “be not moved away from the hope of the gospel” (Colossians 1:21-23), “be ye steadfast, unmovable” (1 Corinthians 15:58), and “fight the good fight of faith, and lay hold on eternal life” (1 Timothy 6:12).
The false doctrine of eternal security is in direct opposition to the truth of GOD’s Word. GOD’s power is sufficient to keep us from sinning and to enable us to live a holy life by HIS grace. Let us stay watchful, trusting not in our own merits but faithfully trusting in the power of the precious Blood of the JESUS CHRIST as we serve The GOD of Abraham in holiness. HE can and will preserve us from all evil as we allow His holiness to work in our lives if we remain “In HIM”, without compromise or complacency !
As we have written many times, numerous scriptures speak of the faithfulness of GOD and of His power to “keep you from falling” (Jude 1:24). The GOD of our Salvation seals the True Believers (2 Corinthians 1:22) and preserves and protects them from the evil of the world, but only as they maintain their faith by following JESUS. The Author and Finisher of our Faith, JESUS illustrated the relationship as a vine and branch in (John 15:1-11). If a branch does not bear fruit, it is taken away. We are instructed to “abide” in JESUS. Note: JESUS is not just a one day Sunday experience. ABIDING IN CHRIST JESUS is about a moment-by-moment dependency on HIM. It’s about clinging to the LORD our GOD with everything that we have & nurturing that personal, intimate relationship JESUS died to have with us.
If we do not abide or stay in JESUS CHRIST, we are cast forth and burned. All fruit or righteousness comes only from abiding in JESUS, for without HIM (John 15:5), we can do nothing. If a believer stops abiding in Christ JESUS, the relationship is severed, and the consequence is eternal destruction rather than eternal life. Sobering thoughts. The LORD our GOD is not a GOD of Confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33) nor compromise – lukewarm (Revelation 3:15-16).
The Holy Bible and the Scriptures prove beyond any doubt that the promise of “Once saved, Always saved”, as has been presented in Part 1 (February 7th ) and Part 2 ( February 21st) are patently FALSE, NOT TRUE, and Exist only to deceive the masses. We are here only to present the overwhelming evidence. All of humanity has been given “FREE WILL” and It is up to you to either accept or deny the Truth.
LORD have Mercy. ✝️✝️
