Mar 23, 2020 · Many believers have held that yes, true Christians can lose their salvation because there are several New Testament texts that seem to indicate that this can happen. I’m thinking, for example, of Paul’s words in 1 Timothy 1:18–20:
May 17, 2022 · Nothing can remove a Christian from God’s hand (John 10:28–29). God guarantees eternal life and maintains the salvation He has given us. The Good Shepherd searches for the lost sheep, and, “when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home” (Luke 15:5–6). The lamb is found, and the Shepherd gladly bears the burden ...
Jan 4, 2022 · True believers have counted the cost and made the commitment; apostates fail to do so. Apostates had a profession of faith at one time but not the possession of faith. Their mouths spoke something other than what their hearts believed. Apostasy is not loss of salvation but evidence of past pretension.
Oct 8, 2024 · Hebrews 6:4–6 states, “It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance.”. This is one of the Bible’s most difficult ...

Jesus emphasizes the importance of the new (spiritual) birth for every believer (John 3:3), which is evidenced by the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” (John 3:5). Moreover, Jesus has also promised that God will not disown His follo...
Paul declares that God’s gifts, including salvation, are “irrevocable” (Romans 11:29) and God does not lie concerning His promise of eternal life (Titus 1:2). This means that God is able to complete the good work He has started in every believer (Philippians 1:6). Further, Paul also boldly proclaims this greatest promise in the Bible on this subjec...
The Bible reveals that: A true Christian will not continue to live in a sinful, unrepentant lifestyle (1 John 3:6), those who depart from the faith had never really been true Christ-followers from the start (1 John 2:19). The free gift of salvation is not a license to sin, but it is a license to serve one another humbly in love (Galatians 5:13). Sa...
The full assurance of our salvation is the evidence of God’s goodness and faithfulness. God is good in that His redemptive plan has been made clear (salvation by grace through faith in Christ alone). God is faithful in that His promise of salvation has been made secure(nothing can revoke the gift of eternal life in Christ Jesus). From start to end,...

May 14, 2022 · Hebrews gives us a clue, telling us the “world” in 2:5 is that one “of which we are speaking.”. But the author also interrupts his argument with an exhortation — his first warning (2:1–4) — causing us, if we’re not careful, to lose the trail. Other examples like this could be easily given (see the mentions of Melchizedek in 5:1 ...

Apr 30, 2019 · For such a person there is no prospect of salvation: “but the one who endures to the end will be saved.” (Matthew 24:13 ESV) The analogy of Scripture would lead us to the conclusion that one of the ways we can tell true believers from false believers is that true believers persevere under pressure and over time.
