Jesus?

He said we have eternal life. Not conditional life.

WHY don't you trust him?

He said all the father gave him he would never lose

He said whoever believed in him would never die. live forever. has eternal life and will live as long as he lives.

I can go on and on. But we know it will do no good. when your stuck your stuck
They are the ones who remain faithful to their dying day.

then non of those things are true

If you can die AFTER being given eternal life. It is not eternal life

If you can die AFTER eating the food which endures forever. then Jesus lied

If you can be DELIEVERED to Christ not raised by him after eating. then Jesus lied.

If you can be lost after you were found. then again Jesus lied.

why don't you trust Jesus to keep his word?

Salvation in the Bible works like this :
1.Believe Paul’s Gospel , given to him by Jesus

Let’s just stop at #1.

The gospel that Paul preached is the same gospel in the entire New Testament as preached by all the holy Apostles and Christ himself: this is the genesis of your error.

Dispensational Theology
makes a huge mess of scriptural understanding.

Paul is just another vessel used by God to fully explain in detail the unsearchable riches thereof.

Listen to you. Jesus never ever lied. THIS is what the Master said.

I tell you, many will come from east and west and will feast with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom from heaven. (12) But the unfaithful heirs of that kingdom will be thrown into the darkness outside. In that place there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth." Matthew 8:11-12

Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (14) For many are called, but few are chosen. Matthew 22:13-14

Come out of your cult.

Jesus did not lie, What he said in Matt 8 and matt 22 is true. But what he said in john 3 and john 6 is also true.

My Cult? I am not the one who called jesus a liar. And has no faith in him.

Stop being a pharisee. and join the true family of God my friend.

Some are eternally saved and some are not. You know the parable of the Ten Virgins.

It’s a FACT ! One MUST PERSEVERE. It is God that sees to it that we do.

“ Who is it that Overcomes the World ( perseveres ) ? It is he that Believes That Jesus is the Son Of God.”

Phil 1:6 “ I am confident that He who started a good work in you ( Believing Jesus was the Son Of God ) will go on to finish it”.....

Being confident of this very thing that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: (Philippians 1:6)

You're right. We need to persevere with the Lord in our Christian walk with God until the end of our days. It is He who gives us the strength to overcome the things of the world as we look to Jesus who is the author and finisher of our faith. Then in the company of Paul we shall be able to say, "I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain." (Philippians 2:16) Good post. Thank you for the reminder to keep looking unto Jesus all the days of our life, or until he comes again, so we will be ready to meet him in the clouds.

The believer who does not turn away, is saved in this mortal life, and eternally in the next.
.
The believer HAS eternal life, you keep wanting to give him conditional life,


the PERSON who turns away in unbelief, was never a true believer John makes this clear.

Not true. That is what your cult says. The Bible clearly tells us otherwise. This has been shown to you on numerous occasions. The teaching of Christ in the Ten Virgins for example, such people are not given to Jesus by the Father.

John did not lie

so you want to make John a liar and Jesus a liar, then call me a cult

you have pride issues my friend, you want people to have conditional life. Well that’s fine, God gives eternal life, so I will seek out God, because you have nothing to offer me

Neither John, Paul, Jesus nor anyone are liars. They do present both sides of the argument however, and you need to look at the whole picture. Pray for guidance and to have your eyes opened. The only people who can offer you what you are looking for are people like yourself, and that is a bad place to be. So, this patient, God fearing person wishes you well in your search, while what you really need passes by unrecognised. It is so very, very sad, so goodbye old friend of several forums, but I am sure you will be back before long.

Just to add the other side, we are secure all the days of our life if we stay by the saviours side, for he will never leave us or forsake us. The problem is all ours. If you are firm in your love of the Lord, then like your screen name you are eternally secure. Bye.

I have asked
I have looked at the whole picture
I have shared the whole picture with you.
You keep ignoring the words of God and the apostles and making them liars.

if we are secure ONLy if we do something, then we are trying to earn salvation by our works. or as paul calls it the flesh. At which case I will ask you what Paul asked you

Are you so foolish having begun in the spirit are you trying to perfect in the flesh. Have you suffered so many things in vein if it was in vein.

John said I can know I have eternal life. and through this knowledge we can continue to have faith.

If I can't know I have eternal life (my hope, which God who can not lie promised before time began) I have no faith.

Without faith, Its impossible to please God. and without faith. Your on the outside looking in. No salvation.

Your trust is in your ability to keep walking. Not in Gods ability to save you.

As paul said again, I can be confident of this thing, He who BEGAN a good work WILL COMPLETE IT!

I pray you believe this soon.

You don’t understand the full scope of the gospel.

You do not do anything to obtain salvation as a sinner coming into the faith.

But you certainly do do something to maintain salvation as a saint in the faith.

This is very plainly laid out in the entire New Testament. You can continue to ignore this fact by false parsing of scripture; but in the end this can be fatal.

We cannot earn salvation by what we do. As you say, that is salvation by works, and no man can save themselves. Salvation is freely given by the grace of God to all those who believe. Now here comes the main part. We cannot EARN salvation based on what we do, but we can LOSE salvation according to what we do. Idolators, for example, who place greater importance on the things of the world than the things of God. Sins of the flesh, loss of faith and a whole load of temptations that occupy our time and take us away from the Lord. Jesus is our all-in-all, and he has a right to expect our all in return.

YOU know nothing of the gospel

You cant do anything to earn it before you are saved

you certainly can not do anything after to earn it

It is solely of grace through faith period.

As paul said. Are you foolish.

This is contradictory

If we can UNEARN or LOSE salvation. then in fact. salvation must be earned.

Thats the problem with salvation by law or legalism

One MUST confirm to a standard. If he confirms to that standard he is ok. If he does not confirm he is guilty

God said the standard is perfection. For all have sinned and fall short of Gods standard.

You cant be good enough to earn salvation before. You cant be good enough to earn salvation after.

The penalty of sin is death, the GIFT of God is eternal life. (not conditional life)

if sin can make those who recieved the gift dead again. Then the gift was insufficient, It could never save us.

I know what your problem is. In every post you talk of doing works of the flesh. Think of our relationship with God as a marriage, as an affair of the heart. No actual work is involved except a little tender love. Sometimes our love grows cold, we look for other things, and we drift apart...
