Do you have the keys to what are you talking about?
I was talking about the keys to the gates of hell. And you claimed that you have them too because Jesus shares them with you. I might assume you are talking about the keys to the kingdom, if it weren't for outlandish claims being common enough in these forums that making logical assumptions aren't also as accurate as you might think they should be.Are you a Christian?

How do you know YOU aren't the one that God is going to spank on judgement day?
I read in the bible where I'm joint heirs with Christ Jesus.
He's certainly got the keys and He lets me use them.

Like I read one guy says when reading some of the posts here, it's a good thing your opinion doesn't matter since you aren't Jesus!
So what kind of sinful things are you deciding to do?
The only thing some have questioned in my life is whether me and my girlfriend are married or not in God's eyes since we never got a marriage license from our state
Several people has responded saying we are not actually in sin since we are in a committed relationship so it sounds like I'm not actually in sin after all.
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. -- Gal 2:20 ESVAre you a Christian?

I'm hearing numerous preachers teach that all our futures sins are already forgiven
Is this why is doesn't matter if a christian lives in sin or not and once saved always saved in true?
My pastor tells me that the bible teaches there is nothing a christian can possibly do that would cause them to not go to heaven
And this seems to be the general consensus of many here after reading quite a few posts from others.
a born again Christian's sins are forgiven, past, present & future. Jesus did it all on the cross by dying for the forgiveness of our sins. it never means that a Christian will stop sinning. Christians do not want to sin but they may, possibly because of a current bad time however they will be convicted by the Holy Spirit, will recognize that & use it as an opportunity to grow in grace by removing such sins. it's a constant growth period for Christians. & know that Romans 8:28- 'and we know all things work together for good......"is a lesson on this.I'm hearing numerous preachers teach that all our futures sins are already forgiven

your co-worker is incorrect. read verses John 10:28-, ETERNAL life, NEVER perish, John 3:36- hath EVERLASTING life, hebrews 5:9- author of ETERNAL salvation & 1st John 5:13, the best verse explaining eternal salvation- that you may KNOW you have ETERNAL life. it is NEVER okay to live in sin. bon again Christians will not desire to sin, have the Holy Spirit living inside of them for life, leading teaching, counseling & guiding the believer to a Godly life. we can never stop sinning but the reduction in a sinful life decreases immensely. know that it isn't only acting out a sin that is sin, you can also sin by thinking about sin like being vengeful to someone, or thinking lustfully & your speech can be sin laden. cuss words, lying, gossip, etc. nompoinh to be sin. the Bible says for he to doeth right & doeth it not, it is sin. a born again Christian's life is regenerated in Jesus. he or she will know not to sin, will not continually sin & will always be growingMy coworker who is telling me once saved always saved in not true told me to ask you if it's OK for christians to go ahead and live in sin since all future sins are already forgiven
I can see his point. If it's true that all future sins are forgiven then it doesn't matter if a christian lives in sin or not since all future sins are forgiven
Is this is why some many christians are living in sin now because they think all future sins are forgiven?
Are all these people here that say it's not possible to do anything that would cause us to not go to heaven wrong?

You should probably read the "Hyper-Grace" thread under the Bible Discussion Forum. I'd say you're treading on dangerous ground.My coworker who is telling me once saved always saved in not true told me to ask you if it's OK for christians to go ahead and live in sin since all future sins are already forgiven

it is NEVER okay to live in sin
we can never stop sinning
They will say, people who claim to christians but continue to sin were never really Christians in the first place. They'll say you won't want to sin if you're a true Christian. Ask any Christian if they still sin. What what happens.
I'd say you're treading on dangerous ground.
Did you read what I suggested, or are you just going to keep trolling?I'm on dangerous ground for asking questions?
Are they going to send snipers out to wipe me out or something?

Grace and Peace.If you don't want to answer any questions in this thread you are free to not participate are you not?
I think I saw the thread you speak of and it's nothing but a bunch of fighting back and forth.
I'm not going to waste time wading thru all that mess.
But if you did live in sin it's all good because all our future sins are already forgiven.
That's the message I'm hearing.
Yes, I can tell something is messed about about all this.
Some people seem to be playing on both sides of the fence

Yes, playing both sides of the fence is exactly right.
Well the bible references my pastor has shown me do appear to confirm that once a person is saved they cannot possibly do anything that would cause them to not be saved.
I'm just telling you people what my pastor says and he seems to have bible references to back up his claim that once saved always saved is true and correct and that there is nothing a christian can do to cause himself to not go to heaven after getting born again
