    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    and where in that parable does it say that .. the prodigal son was one who went his own way but turned back to his father aka repented .. some of us are prodigals and return aka repent or do not repent ..

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    the prodigal son was repentant and was willing to be one of the hired help and not the son but his father did welcome him back with much love and joy .. not all prodigals return, including prodigal sons/daughters of God

    thanks for all these passages .. I have some of them, but not all .. they may be removed from the congregation for being accursed but unless they repent, they will be removed from eternal salvation as well

    Taking the mark of the beast ensures spending eternity with him in lake of fire .. not taking the mark of the beast ensures our mortal death but eternity in heaven with God .. so, go with Satan for eternity or go with God for eternity .. I know which one I choose .. do you

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    ohhhhhhhhhhh come on .. accursed means eternity in lake of fire .. Christ Himself said, "IF you love Me, [THEN] keep My Commandments" .. so we don't have to keep His Commandments IF we don't love Him but still we shall be saved and spend eternity with God aka Christ Whom we do not love .. how...

    what could be more significant than losing salvation .. lol .. if one does not love Christ, one will be accursed as in lost to hell as Christ Himself said, "IF you love Me, [THEN] keep my Commandments" .. so, are you saying we don't have to keep His Commandments coz we don't love Him but we...

    lol .. "with no stings attached" .. I know you meant "strings" but "stings" works, too, in that if one believes they are saved simply by believing and do not realise they must love Jesus or be accursed and must obey His two great commandments and must repent when one fails to do so, there will...

    1 Corinthians 16:13-14,22 - 13 Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. 14 Let all you do be done with love. 22 If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. O Lord, come!

    the road and gate to heaven are narrow and only a "few" find them .. the broad road is the road to hell and "many" find that ..

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    sins of believers are committed deliberately via one's free will and must be repented or they will not be forgiven .. Christ died to "pay the punishment debt due Adam's and Eve's sin" .. as for Ananias and Sapphira, they knew and were believers and sinned against the Holy Spirit in their lying...

    I do still sin but repent for doing so and sincerely try to overcome said sins .. I have overcome some through being strengthened by repentance and God's help .. I still need to overcome others and I shall ..

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    "true" believers choose to do God's Will according to God's Word .. Satan believes but is not saved coz he refuses to do God's Will according to God's Word .. how can anyone who merely believes but does not do God's Will but, rather, continues to do his/her will and to succumb to deliberate sin...

    God is husband to Israel but only a remnant will be saved .. the 144 000 are 12 000 from each of the twelve tribes of Judah .. the elect are God's chosen and do not include every being .. as I have said and repeat, we must believe, love or be accursed, obey Christ's two great commandments, and...

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    I am preparing all scriptures to support what I believe and it is not quite finished but I know God's Word and if you know it, you will know what I am saying is backed up by many biblical passages in various books/chapters/verses .. to put it simply, I believe and God's Word amply supports it...

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    how often does one need to be told, the gift of salvation is just that .. God's gift to ALL .. but not ALL accept it and not ALL who do accept it choose to keep it .. some who accept it misuse and abuse it and eventually lose it .. of the latter, some search to find it aka REPENT and retrieve it...

    with God all things are possible .. without God nothing is possible .. if we choose to have Christ in our lives, we have His everlasting love and help .. but Christ will help us attain righteousness but WILL NEVER help us remain in unrepentant unrighteousness .. and one who chooses to remain...

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    no need to repent over and over again IF you stop succumbing to sin over and over again .. but as often as you choose to sin you must choose to repent or not .. repenting stops and is no longer needed when one stops sinning .. repentance is the remedy for sinning .. no further sinning would mean...

    Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

    God CAN do anything and everything He chooses to do .. He CAN stop us from sinning but He chooses to ALLOW us to choose to sin or not to sin and if we choose to sin, to choose to repent or not to repent .. God chose us and desires that we choose Him .. He CAN but WILL NEVER force Himself on...

    murder is a sin and sin ends in death BUT David and Moses REPENTED and that is what saved them .. they "returned" to God and "changed" from doing their Will back to doing God's Will .. we all sin and only repentance can restore the life from death sin brings .. no repentance no forgiveness and...
