Persevere in the state of grace unto the end!

Ask and you shall receive


Matt 24:13 endures to the end.

Mark 13:13
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Rev 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:

Heb 3:14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

Heb 6:11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:

1. Romans 11:22 – God’s kindness, if you continue in His kindness

2. Colossians 1:21-23 – holy and blameless, if you continue in the faith"

3. The race of faith: the example of Paul

4. Hebrews 12:22-25: "we shall not escape if we turn away from Him"

5. Hebrews 4:1-3, 9-12: "strive to enter the rest of God"

6.Hebrews 6:4-9 – those who became partakers of the holy spirit and fell away

7. Hebrews 10:23-29, 35-39: "if we sin willfully", "if anyone draws back".

8. Matthew 24:13: He that endures to the end, the same shall be saved

9. Hebrews 3:4-6: Holding fast our confidence firm until the end

10. Matthew 24:13: "But the one who endures to the end will be saved"

11. 1 John 2:24-25 – "if what you heard from the beginning abides in you"

12. 2 John 8-9 : to "everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ

13. 2 Peter 1:5-11 : "Make every effort to supplement your faith"

14. Philippians 2:12-16: "work out your salvation with fear and trembling"

15. 1 Timothy 6:10-16: the love of money

16. Galatians 5:2-4 "Severed from Christ"

17. 2 Timothy 2:11-13: "if we deny him, he will also deny us"

18. James 5:19-20: the wandered brother

19. Some will abandon the faith

20. 1 Timothy 5:8: "he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever"

22. The real family of Jesus: "Those who hear the Word of God and do it"

23. 1 Corinthians 5:5: "so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord"

24. Peter 2: "It would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness"

25. Jude: "Turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness" - a much relevant warning

26. 1 Cor. 9:27 ....Lest I myself might become a castaway

Romans 13:11
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

So salvation by “faith alone” is completely false and impossible!

The stark lack of humility is what I find truly stunning on this forum.
"If you don't agree with exactly what I say, you are wrong, stupid, evil, wicked, and are most likely an agent of Satan."
Now that's brotherly love for you!

According to the armenians doctrines, i am saved. Apparently sin dont mean a thing to yall. One of your cohorts even said “sin isnt the reason for a loss of salvation.” Yall got that easy believism thing going on.
Actually that's just the opposite... I've found the Calvinists and OSAS tend to think that way. And it's true, sin doesn't cause loss of salvation, unless it's unbelief. Of course in Calvinism, nothing can cause loss of salvation.

tell me, i just heard of an elder, who is married, got caught sleeping with prostitutes and lying about it for 10 yrs. He’s in a sex addiction rehab now, He claims he’s saved. What do you think?
I think only God knows where one's soul is. But there are clues. Is he repentant?
If you are going to be a Calvinist, you need to read what Luther said about that sort of thing.
Arminians, ( not Armenians) do believe you can toss your salvation by falling away.
