Many Christians declare: "once saved, always saved" by this they mean that once a person confesses faith in Jesus Christ, he is "saved" form all God's punishment for sin, including hell. Whatever he may do for the rest of his life, he is guaranteed a place in heaven.

Catholics and many other Christians as well--reject this teaching as unbiblical. For example, there is a warning in the Book of Sirach:
"Of forgiveness be not overconfident, adding sin upon sin. Say not: "Great is his mercy; my many sins he will forgive. For mercy and anger alike are with Him. Upon the wicked alights his wrath. (Sirach 5: 5-7)

Some might object that this passage doesn't apply to Christians; after all, Sirach is an Old Testament book that does not even appear in Protestant Bibles. Nevertheless, the New Testament echoes this warning to Christians:
"For it is impossible in the case of those who have once been enlightened and tasted the heavenly gift and shared in the holy spirit and tasted the good word of God and the powers of age to come, and then have fallen away, to bring them to repentance again, since they are recrucifying the Son of God for themselves and holding him up to contempt
(Hebrews 6:4-6)

At the same time, in speaking of severe trials ahead for his followers, Jesus predicts that "the love of many will grow cold. But the on who perseveres to the end will be saved."
(Matthew 24: 12-13)
Not the one who makes a one-time confession of faith, but the one who perseveres to the very end.

To clarify further, we should note that "salvation" means much more than an initial experience of faith. Its a lifelong process, in this world and the nexnt, which culminates--if we faithfully persevere--in perfect holiness and the vision of GOD.

So don't obtain our salvation one day and then 'lose' it another. Instead, for a lifetime, we must "work out (our) salvation with fear and trembling"
(Philippians 2:12)

May the Peace, Love, and Mercy of Our Lord Jesus Christ be with you All.

SALVATION AND
ETERNAL SECURITY

â€œCan I be saved from my sins? And if I do get saved, what happens if I sin again? Will I lose my salvation?â€ Have you ever had these questions, or similar ones on your mind? Did you know that it is possible for any person to know how to be saved, and then to have the assurance of that salvation and eternal security (eternal salvation)? Thatâ€™s right! You can know right now how to be saved for all eternity. Want to know? Good! Hereâ€™s how.

The Bible says that we are all sinners by birth and in deed, and that we need to be saved. (Ro. 5:12) We stand in need of salvation. But thereâ€™s just one problem - we cannot do anything to save ourselves. No one else can save us since they, like us, are sinners standing in need of salvation. (Ro. 3:10) Theyâ€™re in the same predicament as you and I! But salvation is possible and available because God provided a means whereby a sinner can be saved. How is this possible? Jesus Christ who is not only the Son of God, but is also God of very God, (Jn. 20:28) has paid our sin debt when He shed His blood and died on the Cross of Calvary. (Jn. 19:1-30) You see, Jesus Christ left heavenâ€™s glory and took to Himself a human body in order that He might be able to die on Calvary for sinful man. He remained God, but became the God-man. Even though Jesus Christ had taken on a human body, He was not a sinner, and He never committed any sins. He was in every sense a sinless person, and as such He was qualified to pay our sin debt. (1 Pe. 2:21-24) Therefore, when He was crucified on the cross, our sin debt was laid to His account, even though He was not a sinner. When Jesus Christ shed His innocent blood and died, He in every sense paid in full the sin debt that we owed. (1 Jn. 2:2) He bodily rose from the grave three days later and, today, He is in Heaven (He. 10:14) interceding on our behalf. (Ro. 8:34; He. 7:25) When an individual comes to that place in his life where he recognizes the fact that he is a sinner on his way to a Christless eternity in a devilâ€™s hell, and he repents of his sins and asks for Godâ€™s forgiveness, and for Jesus Christ to come into his heart and save him, then he is forgiven and saved. He is at that moment born-again - a spiritual rebirth. And, this salvation from God is eternal - it never ends - for any reason. Consider these verses from Godâ€™s Word. Ro. 10:9,13; Jn. 6:37; 1 Jn. 5:11-13. These verses, as well as all other verses on salvation, when taken in their Biblical and theological concept and context, do not teach that a person can lose salvation or that a person must do, or avoid doing anything to remain saved. When God saves a person it is for eternity. Period!

But what if you sin again, does it mean that you lose your salvation? The answer is NO! The above verses prove that salvation is eternal, but you do not have a license to live anyway you want. (Ro. 6:1,2) As Christians, we have the responsibility to live in such a manner as to bring honor and glory to our Saviour. (Gal. 2:20) When we sin we disrupt the fellowship that we enjoy with our heavenly Father, but we retain our salvation. The moment we realize that we have sinned we need to confess it to God, and He will forgive it and our fellowship will be restored (1 John 1:9; 1 Jn. 2:1 in speaking to Christians). If you have never been saved, that is, received Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour, then you need to do it today - right now - before it becomes eternally too late. (2 Co. 6:2) Then seek out a good independent, fundamental, Bible believing and Bible preaching, Baptist church. Attend it regularly that you might be spiritually fed from Godâ€™s Word to help you grow spiritually strong. If you have received Jesus Christ as Saviour, are you living for Him? Does your life show it?

Again,

For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
(Hebrews 6:4-6)

For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

Mao na it is important for us, who are enrobed in the teachings of the Church, through God, to hold on to our faith and to the teachings that we have been given.

May we all remember our Baptismal rights, and the Salvation that was promised to us by the Death and Resurrection of Christ Jesus Our Lord.

Jesus never once said that salvation is easy. On the contrary,when a disciple asked The Lord Jesus Christ who would be saved, Jesus Christ, The Word Incarnate answered him in Truth,

Jesus Said, "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."

(Matthew 7:13-14)

Again, Jesus tells us directly and warns us:

"And He went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem. Then one said to Him, â€œLord, are there few who are saved?â€ And He said to them, â€œStrive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, â€˜Lord, Lord, open for us,â€™ and He will answer and say to you, â€˜I do not know you, where you are from,â€™ then you will begin to say, â€˜We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.â€™ But He will say, â€˜I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity."

(Luke 13:22-27)

Read scripture and listen to the teachings of the Church. And stray away from improper personal interpretations of Blessed Scripture, as Scripture was meant to complement Church Teachings. To allow better understanding.

God Bless All Of Us. Peace To You all my Brothers and Sisters.
In Jesus's Name.

kun mawala ang kaluwasan nga imong naangkon sa dihang ikaw midawat sa kamatuoran nga si Ginoong Jesukristo nagpakamatay didto sa krus aron sa pagtubos sa tanan nga motuo Kaniya, dili diay mao nga Jesukristo ang imong gidawat kay wala may kasigurohan ang imong gidawat nga kaluwasan. ang DIYOS hingpit busa ang iyang saad hingpit usab.

sa John 3:16 klaro kaayo ang mensahe sa DIYOS mahitungod sa kaluwasan.

ang tawo walay mabuhat nga makausab sa Plano sa DIYOS. bisan pa ug unsay imong buhaton dili gyod matangtang ang pagpatinga sa ISPIRITO SANTO sa higayon nga ikaw midawat sa kaluwasan nga gitanyag. kini grasya, ang tawo walay bisan unsa nga mabuhat alang sa pagdugang aron mahingpit ang iyang kaluwasan.

kinsa man diay ang nagplano alang sa kaluwasan sa tawo? kinsa man diay ang nagbuhat aron maluwas ang tawo? kinsa man diay ang naglamdag sa alimpatakan sa tawo aron masabtan niya ang kaluwasan?
ang tawo igo lamang sa paggamit sa iyang pagtuo aron madawat niya ang gasa sa kaluwasan tungod sa grasya sa DIYOS.

ngano mas gamhanan pa ba ang imong mabuhat nga sala kaysa pagkamasaligan sa DIYOS ug sa iyang pagkahingpit?
apan wala ni magpasabot nga tungod kay luwas na ang tawo mahimo na siya magpakasala kay dili na man matangtang ang iyang kaluwasan. kun ikaw anak sa DIYOS sa higayon nga ikaw mosupak sa iyang kabubot-on iya gyod ka nga pagapantunon.

Greetings Tita Lee,

Absolutely the message that is given to us in John 3:15-17, "That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

This verse in scripture is from a conversation Jesus had with the Jewish official, Nicodemus, and when Nicodemus had a conversation with Him on the basis of Salvation. Christ, prior to this verse, talks about being born again and the latter being a requirement for entry into the Kingdom of Heaven. By this, Christ means baptismal, to be born again.

Remember that the first letter of Peter addresses Christians as those who "have been born anew." (1peter 1: 23). This language echoes the words of Jesus, who tells Nicodemus, "No one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above" (or born again, if you take it). The Greek in this passage--John 3:23--allows for either translation.

Nicodemus is puzzled, "How" he asks, "can a person once grown old be born again? Surely he cannot reenter his mother's womb and be born again, can he?" (John 3:4)

Jesus' reply to Nicodemus is critical for understanding what it means to be "born again":

Christ tells him and us, "I say to you, no one can enter the KINGDOM OF HEAVEN without being born of water and spirit" (John 3:5). The event described here is not, as not merely a profession of faith in Christ. Rather it refers to the Sacrament of Baptism, when the person is washed with water and receives the Spirit. Later preaching in Pentecost, St. Peter confirms that those who are baptized receive the Spirit (ACTS 2:38).

The new birth, which is the beginning of the new life in Christ, must come about after death of the "old self" (ROMANS 6:6)--that is, the unredeemed nature burdened by original sin(Romans 6:7).

How does this death leading to new life, come about? Through the absolution of sins in Baptism. "Are you anware that we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were indeed buried with him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised form the dead by the GLORY of the Father, we too might lieve in newness of life." (ROMANS 6:3-4)

However, salvation that is promised to us is not and will be accountable if one leaves and forgoes his or her promises to Christ Our Lord and the Holy Spirit that works through each and everyone of us.

The verse from Matthew 7: 13-14, ""Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."

--Is a reminder for us that we who take up on the cross and belief and faith in the redemption of Christ through his death and resurrection--and through our baptismal rights. Are expected to live that profession of faith through our lives. Each and every single day. Hebrews 6:4-6 explicity tells us that those who believe, profess faith one time, have felt the presence of the Spirit of God, but have fallen away and head not the greatest commandment that we were given--and fall back to the sin that we were purged of--basically meaning--loosing 'faith' or 'giving up' on faith. Does not guarantee salvation.

It is important, Tita Lee, that we all digest the verse from John 3:16.
Yes, that is true, that is the reason why God sent his son. So that some would be saved and not perish along with the world. However, verses in Luke, as well as in Hebrews tells us we must live responsibly, and live in accordance to the faith that was given. It is about keeping the faith, acting by one's faith and living the faith. It is based on fighting to keep your salvation, believing and not succumbing to your old self. To not forsake the teachings of the Church, through Christ. And keeping and fighting for salvation,Philippians 2:12 :"Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling."

"Afterall, we are told, as good Christians, "What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds."
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do. You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that--and shudder. "
(James 2: 14-18)

God Bless,
Bran Lorenzo

being born again is the baptism of the HOLY SPIRIT to the person who believes in the LORD JESUS CHRIST. regeneration through the ministry of the HOLY SPIRIT.
we accept salvation through faith in the LORD JESUS CHRIST, then as believers in CHRIST we must live by faith.
IICorinthians 5:7 for we walk by faith, not by sight.
keeping the faith does not mean keeping ones religion because religion is man's effort to reach or to attain GOD's approval, christianity is a relationship, your personal relationship with GOD.
Hebrews 11:6 and without faith it is impossible to please GOD
where does your faith come from?
Romans 10:17 faith comes from hearing, hearing by the WORD of CHRIST.
how do you love GOD?
John 14:15 if you love ME, keep MY commandments.
there is no other way to show your love for GOD but to keep HIS commandments.
keeping HIS commandments means having the MIND of CHRIST.
having the MIND OF CHRIST means studying HIS WORD. how can a believer know how to live as a christian when he does not know the plan of GOD in his life, knowing HIS plan is knowing HIS WORD.

That being said,

I reiterate again:

Again,

For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
(Hebrews 6:4-6)

For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.
