Thank you, when I really understood the "completed work of Christ" even though I had been a born again believer for a while, it was a game changer.
Words cannot express my joy at having gained this deeper understanding ... it did come at a cost but well worth it.
and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God on the basis of faith.…
Phil 3:9

Dear, dear friend of God, your dream has already been interpreted, others have already had your dream and interpretted it for you. The Titanic was considered unsincable; this world's sistem and its so called supper powers, considered insinkable. Some say the economic colapse will happen at the end of this year. I did not believe it, but with your dream of the ship already begining to fill with water... I am aware that the economic colapse already began, as America is already bankrupt and its just a matter of time, but i was still thinking: not this year. Though righ now I see your dream relates to the Church filling up with watter as being filling up with and conformed to the world, and I had a deam of us becoming like the world this morning. First to explain, in revelation there is a whore standing on many waters, "These are the nations she has power over." We know the True Church will not sink or at least those who overcome the world will make it in the life boats. Did you know that many of the Churches in america believe and are thought that they are powerless and believe it; remaining babes in Christ quareling among one another. I warned Dcontroversial of his judgmental attitude yesterday and for a moment there was unresolved anger in me, tho i did let it go and as I went to bed the Holy Spirit warned me to watch that it dosent hapoen to me. Then i dreampt that i was being attacked in my dream by two such quarelsome babes, I was afraid and angry and as I repeated: why are you doing this, I cut of the fingers of my left hand, somehow they calmed down and one with blond hair told me: you can put your fingers back on now. I told Him: I dont know how, I gues I will have to go to the doctor. Interestingly in the dream, I had cut the fingers of my left hand off, having the sword in my right hand but when i looked it was my right hand holding the sword missing the fingers: what we think we are doing to others we are doing to ourselves. I knew this and its why I only had the unresolved anger for a moment and let it go, but the Lord still warned me and showed me the consequences. That would be why babes are powerless: as we quarel we unable to walk in thevHoly Spirit and unable to rightly hold the Sword of the Spirit...
Yes, to "sin willfully" in the Greek carries the idea of deliberate intention which stems from rejecting Christ deliberately. Now we don't walk along our daily life and "accidentally" fall into a pit called sin. We exercise our will but, the use of the participle in the context of Hebrews 10 shows a continuous rejection of the full work of Christ and no sacrifice remains/no further offering in which to look forward.

Perhaps you have not read the following...
John 10:27-28
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.
Or perhaps, your prejudice has blinded you to think only a few believers will be saved.
Revelation 7:9-14
After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” 11And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”
13Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?” 14I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

Thank you for the response.... I really like it when people engage me in discussion
Yes I would agree, but there is more.....we have to be careful because we know salvation cannot be forsaken or taken away.
Would you agree that these are Jews who have been converted, accepted Jesus as Savior but are now returning to the works of the law....probably because of tremendous pressure?

Exactly.....such are the ways of salvation losers, workers for and Cainologists......all about them...very little, if anything to do with Jesus and his work. One reason I rarely engage him and a handful of others on this site! They constantly devalue Jesus and drag him through the hyper religious mud pit by their fraudulent gospels!

You know, I perceive there is Love in you, that means you have the Holy Spirit and that your not a quarelsome babe. First of all Salvation being a one time event is when Jesus died and rose. "Salvation belongs to our God," and that's why it cant be lost, and He will reward everyone according to His work. "Behold I come quickly and My reward is with me to reward every one acccding to His work." Now tel me, what is the reward Jesus is brigning with Him, but the Resurrection. There are verses from the appostles that confirm this: That we will receive according to our labour. "Not by works, lest any man should boast," was only ment to say: we should not think we are better than others, since it's all by the Grace of God; the influence of the Holy Spirit enabling us to Love as Jesus Loves. The New comandment was only posible by the Holy Spirit; following Jesus in His sufferings, to cease from sin and Love our enemies.
but before I get too carried away, the link? A yes it began with me looking up:
my-visitations-part-3-jesus-appeared-in-life-changing-dream
You should read this first, its one hour of reading. I read it 3 times: was most blessed the second time, and the third time realised I had to discipline miself to do the work of walking in the Holy Spirit, to receive mre: to walk in Love, that is mentioned by her ad well, or if you prefer, be disciplined by the Lord to walk in His Love: possible by the Holy Spirit. But can you see that saying the same thing diferently causes quarels until we walk in Love. God confused our languages so that we dont attain unity of the spirit without the Holy Spirit.
The link your looking for, you just had to copy the title in brouser even tho I left the word eternal out of peril, as it sais people will be released from death and hell to be judged according to their works, these, "The rest of the dead, are not raised until the thousand years is fulfilled" "The sea will give up the dead that are in them, death and hell will give up the dead that are in them, and everyone will be judged according to his works. Its the people in the lake of fire that dont apear to be released, as I undetstand, thete is no Love in their heart for them to be released, no final judgment necesary. But ignore this, lets not fight over my view even tho I believeve its corect and dont try tonteach this to others you agree lol, babes will be babes and we cant help God and His help constantly.
So your looking for:
Scriptures warning Christians of eternal peril.
Shortened the page in half to fit here. Dont forget to read her dream, your a godly you will benefit.
By the way, the Way I benefited reading 3 times coresponds to,
Little children who are forgiven: receiving the former rain of the Holy Spirit moderatly.
Father: those who know the Love of the Father and nurture children; receiving "The former and laiter rain together in the same Mont." Then: "Young men who are strong and the Word of God abides in you and have overcome the evil one." This woman receives the crown of life in her dream. I am not there, just entering in at the second level of entering in at the Straiight Gate, still working out putting away my divided spirit. We always have the Grace we need, but the last level of maturity is aboult learning obedience through suffering.
My study journal and her dream are about the same thing. This is her third experience of visitation. I asked the Lord for this earlier this year (before I knew her experience) and he told me: Your not ready, but told me to: Go, this is a time of prayer, its the only way you'l succed... and many other words of confirmation. I faced my unpreparedness and shallow prayer life in the wilderness last spring and its all good, no regrets with no visitation, as He is always with us.
