If a person believes they can lose their salvation, then this simply means they believe that they have more power to lose it, then God has to keep it.
This is a root of pride, and the deception of Self Righteousness.
See, God, started your salvation in you, and He said, in Philippians 1:6....that He Himself will be "faithful" to complete it.
Jesus said that He, and not you, but He, is the "author and FINISHER of your Faith".
So, there you have God saying He will FAITHFULLY complete your salvation, and Jesus said He will finish your faith.
The Legalist, feels and believes that they have more power than God or Christ, who are "One", and so, this pride exists within them which leads them to dispute, openly, in public, God and Christ = who said they will take care of your Salvation and your Faith, and not you.
You are to take care of your Discipleship.
Thats your part.
You are to have FAITH that God will do what He said, and Christ will do what He said, regarding your Salvation and your Faith.
If you dont, then you are deceived.
All Legalists are deceived.
