We should look to God for a new salvation. A new and fresh filling of the Spirit. Going to the throne room of God to receive more grace...an abundant grace in time of need. To fill our lamps anew with oil. (of course they who see salvation as a one time event will NOT go back for a refill...so...

And what of they who are in Christ that walk not after the Spirit but after the flesh?

Amen. And the jury is still out on who has been faithful till the end. So we encourage another daily to stand fast and press onward. (as opposed to arguing about how saved for all eternity we are)

We are not to compare with our previous life or people in the world. But we are to look to Jesus to run the race that HE has set before us. To look back is not pleasing to God. We should strive to be ever pleasing to God in this race of faith. Luke 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having...

We are sealed into the coming judgment for the house of the Lord. And that judgment is going to be a fierce one. We are to walk in the good works of heaven. If we don't bear an eternal fruit we could be cast out....beyond the gates of Jerusalem.

2 Cor. 1:10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us; But after the initial salvation...the rest is conditional to our being faithful and in line with His Spirit and His will.

Yes....but they are listed as they happen. This modern reformist idea of a one time salvation for all time is not biblical.The bible is a narrative that displays God's salvations as they happen...or happened. In the OP I posted a narrative list. Salvation is past, present and future...and it...

As in...I will spit IT out of my mouth...but not..I will spit YOU out of My mouth? Is the shame and nakedness attributed to a series of words? (surely words can be naked) Or will God judge the works of many as being of no eternal value so that these although saved will be vessels of dishonour...

This is a very contradictory message. As in.."those I love can ignore my warnings because even though I say I will spit you out...I'd never actually do it??" Normally, people who hold to your view stay away from warnings by ignoring them. Here you post the warning and then ignore the...

In Christ one salvation is being built upon the other. Just like an upper room is built upon a ground floor. Now some who have entered into the salvation of Christ on the ground floor will refuse to believe that there is more to it than that. The belief they started with they now shut off...as...

So then to think in terms of a one time salvation is to miss the biblical narrative. With God salvation is part of a bigger story...whereby we are saved more than once. The bible offers us a look at God's ways in the Exodus of His people from Egypt. God saves His people many times in the...

Ps. 116:13 I will take the cup of salvations, and call upon the name of the LORD. In the Hebrew way of thinking...salvation is plural. Just like the above verse...which because it involves a different mindset...has been erringly translated into the singular. But in the Hebrew it is plural. And...

The scale of walking in holiness in Christ is so big...that to miss it is to miss a lot! So we have to testify of what we have experienced. On judgment day...they who have missed the higher calling because they weren't aware of the availability of grace (fulness of grace) to walk as Jesus...

True....but sin also tells us by what power we are living in. So then sin, and the law are just a gauge as to the power we are walking in. If we are walking according to the flesh, then we will sin. If we are walking by the Spirit, then we will not do the deeds of the flesh. So I don't see...

We are saved already from the judgment of the world. But the house of God has a separate judgment...face to face at the Bema seat. The Israelites were saved FROM Egypt...but many perished on the way to being saved TO the promised land. God was not well pleased with everyone. In fact quite the...

We have indeed been redeemed from the world...to enter into the training and selection process of God. We have entered into a race that is based on faith and faithfulness. But few take the race seriously enough. Many will fail the grace of God. They figure they don't need to run because they...

And those children have taken over the nursery. :eek:

"He will guide you into all truth." We know we have received all truth when we walk as He walked...free of sin or any unrighteousness. In Him is no sin. But many see truth as an intellectual exercise that has no power over the sin and this world. Truths don't set you free. But entering into...

That's ridiculous. The kind of life that Jesus gives to us is without sin. Otherwise you are still walking in the same kind of life everyone on the planet is. And this is what you are justifying. You are justifying your own failure because you want to see perfection in others first. And if I try...

The Old Testament is a narrative...a prophetic narrative. The New Testament is different in that it is the fulfillment of that narrative with a testimonial and explanations (but always in a testimonial way). Even Revelation is a testimonial. And the subject? God creates and intervenes in His...
