Unless.... they turn away from God and go back to sin.
You have been told, shown, exampled, explained….and STILL you don’t get it…
Have you NEVER HEARD…”IN” Christ?
Have you NEVER HEARD…”Christ IN you”?
Do you KNOW the differences between…
“IN, ON, WITH, WITHIN, WITHOUT” ?
Because they ALL have Different meanings.
Christ, the Spirit of God,
CAN BE…IN, ON, WITH, WITHIN, WITHOUT a man.
THE ONLY words there that APPLIES to a CONVERTED man……IS: “ IN and WITHIN”…..
*** which expressly means
that man IS “IN” Christ Jesus.
*** And expressly means
Jesus (the Word of God) AND
Christ (the POWER of God) IS “WITHIN” that man.
By what YOU SAY, you seem to THINK a man who has the POWER of God “WITHIN” him…somehow has Greater POWER than God…that that man Cause Gods SPIRIT TO LEAVE from WITHIN that man…
Really? Men have greater power than God?
Or
Really? Gods Power WITHIN a man BREAK His Word, and Leave that man?
No and No.
In acts 8, Peter's assistant (Simon) committed a sin.... and Peter told him to turn away from his sin and ask the Lord to forgive him for his iniquity.
That is NOT in Acts 8.
Act 8 is about a Sorcerer NAMED SIMON, which SIMON was familiar with the people in Samaria, having had Preached Sorceries to them…and they believed Simon…UNTIL Philip arrived in Samaria and began Preaching Gods Word and the Samaritans began rejecting what SIMON had preached, and began Believing Philip.
The Other apostles in Jerusalem heard what was happening in Samaria, and sent Peter and John to Samaria.
Peter and John Prayed for them testifying they Believed…
They whom Peter and John Prayed for and laid hand on RECEIVED the BAPtISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THAT SIMON? THAT SIMON was NOT any apostle’s “assistant”. THAT SIMON wanted to PURCHASE, of, by, through PETER the POWER to “lay hands on people, so they would receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit”.
Peter expressly told SIMON…that is not Gods WAY, and to think that was SINFUL, and then Peter expressly told SIMON, he was NOT of that “lot”…. Which was to say, SIMON was Neither an Apostle, given an Apostles task…nor among the Believing Samaritan’s Heartfully committing their BELIEF and LIFE unto God.
Was Philip BAPTIZING men IN Water…IN Samaria…No.
Was SIMON BAPTIZED IN Water, IN the Holy Spirit? Scripture says NO such thing…
Did Phillip, Peter or John lay hands on that SIMON? Scripture says NO such thing…
So why are you claiming that SIMON “WAS” Baptized?
Notice Peter.... under the leading of the Holy Spirit... did NOT tell him it was all good and his sin had already been forgiven with no need to turn away from it or ask for forgiveness which we hear being taught in almost every church these days.
Acts 8:17-23
Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.
This is another example that once save always saved is false doctrine...
Your example IS NOT about a man WHO Received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit.
That is an express Example of a man utterly NOT KNOWING WHEN or WHY a man IS Baptized with the Holy Spirit…
That man SIMON…wanted the POWER to Baptize men WITH the HOLY SPIRIT….
LOL….ONLY Gods BAPTIZES men WITH the Holy Spirit. The Apostles were merely Servants of Christ Jesus to teach BELIEVING men HOW they could become Baptized WITH the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit BE WITHIN them and they IN His Holy Spirit.
No…Scripture does NOT say that SIMON was Baptized with the Holy Spirit, as you say.
Your example is a fail.
