But why???
This is what I cannot wrap my head around ....who wants to be unsure?
How can anyone serve God freely unless we know that we are not earning or able to loose our salvation?
I will admit I tire of this same ol'nonsense
The question itself is an insult to Christ Jesus

Baggage of our past is carried over.
The past haunts us and plagues us.
A child who was constantly told, your school report was bad, you must do better.
A child who was never told by their parents they are loved, never hearing from mom or dad "I love you"
Nobody wants to be unsure but the fact is many are.

No, but the OSAS people there strongly disagree with "a Christian can sin as much as they want."
I believe we are kept by the power of God through faith. That even when we fall, God picks us up again.
I do not believe in "a Christian can sin as much as they want"
and I do not believe in Christianity where the life of the Believer is unaffected by the New Nature, which is what it means when you say "the New man is sinless while the flesh sins as much as it wants. That smacks of Gnostic antinomianism

@Macabeus
Does OSAS mean that we can sin all we want and even stop believing in Jesus and still be saved? Because I ran into some who support and or defend this view
God took all my sins..... past, present and future upon His Son
Our salvation is based on a singular belief event that places us in Christ....What God's Son did for me was sufficient to absolve me of my sin debt once I believed forever and eternally
End of story!
Your question really is a poor attempt of putting salvation in human hands ....this whole "still be saved" what is that??
We are placed in Christ and Christ is placed in us by His Holy Spirit when we are regenerated
This question is like asking why does.......... zero minus three = ten
Why do people always try to argue this, so nonsensical, illogical and sad

16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Romans 8:12- Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
