WRONG again, my ignorant and arrogant friend.Those who Fall AWAY...."are NOT Saved"..
They....like our Example Judas ....Hear, believe, follow, trust.......THEN STOP....!!!
They receive...MEASURES...of Faith, When they are hearing, believing, following....
And when they STOP hearing, believing, following, trusting....
They STOP receiving Measures of FAITH...
AND are called.....
Having Fallen FROM Faith.
Paul is correct. You add an unbiblical option.
REMAIN IN Faith...receiving measures of Faith. REMAIN hearing, believing, following, trusting and your Gift of Faith From God Becomes INCREASED!!!
INCREASED FAITH...prepares a man To ACCEPT The Lords Offering of Salvation!!!
SALVATION is an "OFFERED" GIFT TO EVERYONE....
It is Not a Gift The Lord Forces on ANYONE!
It is already established Salvation Is for everyone....it is Theirs....
For the Accepting/Taking!!!
If a man DOES NOT ACCEPT/Take the Offered Gift of Salvation....DUH...
He loses it!
Not complicated!
If your local Ford dealer notifies you you have been selected to receive a FREE gift of a Ford Truck, and you must go get the truck Before December 25, and YOU don't...guess what...you forfeit your gift...and on Dec 26...It is no longer yours to have....you Lose you Gift!
Precisely because you Never Received your Gift!
The Lord has Offered The Gift of Salvation to All men...
If the DO NOT ACCEPT "THEIR " gift Before they Bodily DIE....DUH...
They have Lost their gift of Salvation!
Scripture does not teach Salvation Is "Given a man" And THEN Taken Away!
And Why a man with Understanding, has NO Problem Saying....
Once a Man IS Saved...it is Forever!
OSAS..
To claim otherwise, is to make a mockery of God ...AS if a man could Fool God...and God give Salvation to a man...
And then take it Back...because God who IS All knowing...was Fooled by a Man who believed, received Salvation, THEN stopped Believing....
Your proposal and Absolute Nonsense!
Glory to God,
Taken
The people Paul is writing to are BORN AGAIN believers.
Paul refers to them as "God's holy people" (Rom. 1:7). - yet he WARNS them about falling away and being CUT OFF (Rom. 11:22).
Don't just quote the Bible.
STUDY and LEARN what it means . . .
