keep that eternal perspective, it's never easy to keep that eternal perspective
It is when you know and believe the truth.......eternal life does not mean temporary or conditional....

I could care less if every man on the planet preached against eternal security.....it would not change my mind, stance or belief...as a matter of fact most of so called Christianity embellishes faith with some sort of works based I keep myself saved drivel.....and or teaches it can be lost...<---Both false!

Philippians 3:12-16 Pressing on Toward the Goal Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. Only let us live up to what we have already attained.
1 Peter 1:9 for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
2 Corinthians 4:18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Romans 8:24-25 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.
Romans 15:4 For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

God can work in mysterious ways
what if, God can use the idea that "OSAS is true", and work in mysterious ways that the idea actually saves a person, that person is obedient to Christ, etc.

Agreed mailmandan. Proper Hermeneutics will keep you on solid ground and provide you with a proper interpretation. Anything less will guarantee a misinterpretation.
Let the bible "speak to you" and God will reveal His Truth to you. If you go searching for a verse to support your bias with an unsound argument, you will end up with a false interpretation. Learn the basic skills of proper interpretation, google it.
Biblical definition of Exegeses vs Eisegesis
Eisegesis. ... While exegesis is the process of "drawing out the meaning" from a text in accordance with the context and discoverable meaning of its author, eisegesis occurs when "a reader imposes his or her interpretation" into and onto the text.

if you are a work salvationist, and Romans 3:23 is true,"Oh no Mr. Bill! How do we make sure we're going to Heaven?"
mind as well don't believe in heaven in the first place
wait heaven exist, and salvation is possible? *insert sarcasm here*
d...,
You are right ...pay no attention to man's commentary.
But, best you follow The Bible and based on that comment you are not.
Amen! Salvation is not probation.It is when you know and believe the truth.......eternal life does not mean temporary or conditional....
Eternal life is not temporary life.
Jesus is the door. He is not a revolving door.
Amen! Salvation is not probation.
Eternal life is not temporary life.
Jesus is the door. He is not a revolving door.
Absolutely.
Amen! Salvation is not probation.
You are correct.
Eternal life is not temporary life.
You are correct again.
Jesus is the door. He is not a revolving door.
Correct again....three for three...

....Salvation...when received... after G-d's judgement.
Have you been judged by your Savior...yet? I suggest not if you are still alive on earth.
We need no special ability to communicate salvation. The process of salvation is in God's Word. Salvation is explained simply in the scriptures: John 3:16. God has spoken His plan of salvation and mankind should not add unto it nor detract from it.
So when God judges us with regards to salvation what will he judge us on in order to spend eternity with him?
