    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    Doesn’t God by his spirit always produce works of love? ”Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it is not proud. Love is not rude, it is not selfish, and it cannot be made angry easily. Love does not remember wrongs done against it. Love is never happy when others...

    What’s wrong with Personal Sanctification?

    You may be thinking of Hagios. 40 hágios – properly, different (unlike), other("otherness"), holy; for the believer, 40 (hágios) means "likeness of nature with the Lord" because "different from the world." The fundamental (core) meaning of 40 (hágios) is "different" – thus a temple in the 1st...

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    I don’t believe in the doctrine, of one saved always saved. I do believe works play apart of one’s faith, don’t you? James speaks about it. I’m not saying it’s good to go out there and steal your neighbors dog and bust out the headlights of their car. You tell me.

    Oh praise God! Thank you, for dropping it. It gets old and repetitive and a little annoying to keep going like this. Don’t you agree?

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    @Ritajanice, it’s not good to lie to yourself. Hope all the best for you. The writer of Hebrews talks about how believers of the faith can become unbelieving but the scripture may not matter… God will keep you. But what if you gave up on him? Is that his Fault?

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    Did I make this assumption? To be saved from Gods wrath. ?? What do you want? Please tell me.

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    Revelation 3:20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. You can send him out, just as easy as you opened the door. There are “false confessions of faith” in the world as well… hypocrisy...

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    How do you know they didn’t have a heart for God though? Can you say that to me for 100% certain? No, but you can see there are people who die faithless are on the outside of the kingdom, while the ones whom are blessed for doing the Lords commandments going into the Kingdom. I believe...

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    Do you see yourself as chosen by God as his elect and there is nothing you can do to change anything involving your faith? Being born again is going in through the life, death, burial, and resurrection. You die with Christ, You bury your old man with Christ, You raise to newness of life in...

    I don’t think you may understand how much freedom God gives then, Rita.

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    It’s not my point, it’s Peter’s point to those people which is being shared here. The scripture you post doesn’t mean you can not renounce your faith. It just means a person is born in Christ - who is from imperishable seed and incorruptible.

    Rita. You can ask Jesus into your house, you can ask him to leave. He isn’t going to say, no.

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    Who says? It can t? You can renounce your faith. And the Holy Spirit moves out from you. You share a scripture right? It’s much better to see it in context. God gives people what they want. He didn’t force any one to stay.

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    ”Greetings from Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ. To God’s chosen people who are away from their homes—people scattered all over the areas of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. God planned long ago to choose you and to make you his holy people, which is the Spirit’s work. God...

    Once saved, always saved is a myth.

    All that’s been had is disagreement between two parties of people like in politics over the ability to either… A. Renounce one’s faith as a believer B. You can’t do that because God keeps you, you are unable to resist C. God just picks and choose who are his and that’s that, and you may see...

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    What are we man, in grade school? I do believe in Yahavah. I do believe Jesus, who came died, buried, and raised again by Yahavahs Holy Spirit. You’re not high on drugs right now are you?

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    I don’t know what full preterist believes. To me some scripture remains continuing today. Like Revelation 21,22, “the increase of Gods kingdom will never end.”

    Does Satan run the world? Or does God?

    Good. Hope God gets his glory from all the burning people alive. I don’t believe in a God like that… are you a person who believes in Calvinism or anything like that?

    Are comments like this supposed to rattle me?
