Ya can't even expect to run with the big dogs, if ya never leave the porch!

Keep chuckin' rocks!

It makes you look good to yer OSAS'er "buddies." :)

Matthew 7
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Acts 28
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:

I'm sorry!
I didn't see your answer!

You deem yourself "knowledgeable" enough concerning the Kingdom of God, and Kingdom of Light, to "reign WITH Christ", upon His return?

Yes?
Or?
No?

Yes that change would be regeneration ... born again from above.

Just wondering what exactly do you plan to contribute to you salvation?

Contribute to our salvation?

Jesus gave the parable of the Talents.

Matthew 25:16
The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more.

Salvation is a gift from God, which I cannot add to, but the talents I have I can invest.
There is a warning, at the end of the parable for those who ignore the privilege of the gifts of God.

Matt 25:30
And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

I listen to Jesus and His calling. Is this what you mean?
Knowing what we are puts an obligation to sow to the Spirit and not the flesh, our very hearts makes us a slave to righteousness.

Rom 6:18
You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.

I care more about the Gospel and defending it on this thread than conversing with you... I am not ready to be banned, you have shown you like to bait and agitate.

I am saved ....it is not about knowledge.
Done

I have to say you are probably right. But the question really is only God knows who is sealed and who is not.
Clearly people come to faith and later leave. One answer to this is as follows

2 John 1:7-9
Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.
Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.

Clearly those who do not have the Holy Spirit will not know the right way to go and believe and express error.
