For those who have kept the faith.

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: (2Ti 4:7 KJV)
.
A person who loses faith turns into a non believer John calls them antichrist.

They were never of us, if they were of us they would never have left.

People do not lose faith unless they never really had it

When I said grace does not bind us in chains as in slavery, I meant we are free to turn away any time we want. In other words, OSAS is a lie.

What makes you think you are free to 'unconvert' yourself? Turn yourself back into flesh-man after being remade as spirit-man? How exactly would you go about doing that, and why? If you even could? Which you can't.

You don't create yourself, nor do you modify the nature of your creation.

Much love!

By our works we are known. I suggest those who live a licentious life are not the children of God, regardless of what they claim.
.

And by the Lord God we are Judged.
The Lord Gods Judgement, BEGINS with IS the individual Converted...OR NOT.
The Judgement of a Converted man...
IS that man SHALL be raised in a Glorified, Uncorrupted, Ever lasting BODY, reunited with his saved soul, and quickened spirit.

The Judgement of a converted man's "works" are also Judged.
IF....BIG IF...the man does works to glorify God..."rewards" called "treasures" are stored up IN Heaven, to be "given" the man AFTER Judgement.
AND ALL WORKS of a converted man, which such WORKS did NOT produce glorifying fruits, unto the Glory of God....
SHALL BE BURNED.

A mans WORKS, does not Save the man.
A mans WORKS, does not Keep the man Saved.
Only the WORKS of the Lord God can Save a man.
Only the WORKS of the Lord God can KEEP a Saved man, SAVED.

A man whom you may observe as morally depraived, can very well be, Saved and Born Again (having a lasting relationship WITH the Lord God)....while struggling with addiction to drugs, alcohol, sex, short temper, cunningness, insecurities, being battered, inept reasoning capabilities, diseases, finance difficulties, debt, etc. etc. ... NOT one iota changes their Salvation or being born Again.
* It does however impact a loss of "rewards" they shall receive.
* That is typically, a person (saved and born again), who does not know HOW TO, sincerely ask the Lord God for HIS intervention.
* We can observe what the World repeatedly teaches 24-7....don't do drugs, DO DRUGS, Get a therapist, tell "them" all your issues, DO AS "they" say. Seek mens philosophies, Do as "they" say. Here Here, the government will gladly steal from one to give to another for umpteen man-made physical and psychological "treatments"!
* THAT IS NOT Scriptural teaching.
* But then ScripturaL teaching is NOT blasted in ones ears 24-7....but Worldly teaching and Worldly chemical compounds and Worldly philosophies (propoganda) ARE... from toddler age.

Glory to God,
Taken

You cannot lose something you never had.
.
Your right

A dead faith is not faith at all. It is called mere belief.

Also. did you know we only lose faith in those who fail us continually. time and time again of that person proving to be untrustwrothy. THEN we stop trusting them.

What did God do that is so untrustworthy that ANYONE who was born again by him would lost trust in God?

The Israelites were Gods chosen people, and God withdrew his grace from them.
.
Because they rejected him

Anyone who rejects God will be lost.,

He who believes is not condemned, He who does not believe is CONDEMNED ALREADY.

Israel did not lose salvation. they never had it, because they never repented..

Try telling that to BB , he now claims even if one stops believing they are still saved . This hyper grace stuff GOTTA GO .
Let us continue to read our bibles daily . And let the KING BE PRAISED .

Anyone who rejects God will be lost. Adam and Eve knew God, but they disobeyed Him.
The Israelites knew God, but they disobeyed him.

Then you say you cannot lose your salvation. I am losing patience with you.

In the end , on that final day , the DAY of the LORD where all shall stand before the KING
What are folks gonna tell Christ , who trod under foot His sayings . Who trod under foot
that if a man is a hearer only they built their house on sand .
That if a man continues not in me he is cast out .
That He who endures TO THE END shall be saved .
What are folks gonna tell Christ when they said otherwise .
I do not know what they will say , But i know what he will say , DEPART FROM ME , YE FOLLOWED another jesus
and ye taught in the place of my reminders the doctrines of men . I never knew you . This will be a truly terrifying day
for many . This is why my constant plea is , LEARN the BIBLICAL JESUS . LEARN the biblical apostles .
Learn their approach towards sin and error . learn their warnings , their reminders about IF , IF .
Learn it well . For if we teach contrary we teach destruction unto ourselves and all that hear us .

I was made a new creature. I am no longer a dog. I cant make myself one anymore. Because God made me into a new creature.

If you do “dog” things you are still a dog.

If you start doing “dog” things again, you have made yourself a dog again and have put off the new man.

Once you put on the new man, and ruin him with old man habits, you corrupt the new man.

It’s impossible to repent again to receive another new man again.

You can return to the vomit of the old creature while in the new creature.

That’s the whole point of this scripture:

"For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire." (2 Peter 2:20-22)

Some corrupt teaching has you believing a lie that your new creature remains holy while sins are committed in the new creature.
