Jesus was not referring to what you are getting at. Jesus was referring to those who have been told the Gospel. Those who don't believe do so because they are already condemned. How is that so?
The Father draws all men. Those who accept His drawing? These ones will be handed over by the Father and given to the Son. All the Father gives Him will come to Him.
But, why are those who don't believe it says are condemned already? Not condemned because they reject Jesus. But, condemned before they rejected Jesus. Because?
They rejected the Father's drawing of them. Therefore the Father condemned them. They can not come to Christ because the Father will not hand them to the Son. For they were condemned before hearing the Gospel! Its why they will not believe. Preach sin all you want. Salvation is really a matter of our relationship with the Father before we became saved knowingly.
“No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them,
and I will raise them up at the last day. It is written in the Prophets:
‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father
and learned from him comes to me. John 6:44-45
All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me
I will never drive away. For I have come down from heaven not to do my
will but to do the will of him who sent me. And this is the will of him who
sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise
them up at the last day. For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to
the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up
at the last day.” John 6:37-40
Its the Father's will that Jesus will lose none of all that come to Him. So? If we could lose our salvation? That would mean the Son failed to do the Father's will.
In the King James Bible:
John 6:37-40 says,
37 "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day."
First, what does Jesus mean by,
“All that the Father giveth me come to me?”
Well, we have to understand that the Father elects those based on His future foreknowledge of our free will choice concerning Him (
1 Peter 1:2) (
Deuteronomy 30:19). Also, we also have to understand that not everyone is going to be saved; However, it is God's will that all people should be saved, though (
1 Timothy 2:4) (
2 Peter 3:9) (
Revelation 22:17). This is why we read in Scripture about how many are called, but few are chosen (
Matthew 20:16).
Same meanings since all are given the chance to have life through Jesus. But those who are His have come so willingly in faith, repenting and turning with a sincere heart; forever to the submission of God’s commandments and desires.
Verse 39 implies that it is possible for Jesus to lose some of the flock. If it were not so, He would have said so. But if what you say is true, then Jesus would have said,
"I WILL lose nothing."
However, that is not what Jesus said. Jesus says,
"I SHOULD lose nothing."
John 6:39 (KJV) says,
"And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me
I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day."
Second, eternal life here is not a guarantee. Jesus says in verse 40
"MAY have everlasting life".
John 6:40
"And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son,
and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day."
In other words, Jesus should lose none and all who are His should be raised, because they should all continue in the righteousness God gave them through the sacrifice of Jesus. It’s not that Jesus isn’t capable of keeping up with His sheep; it’s that He never keeps His sheep against their wills. How so?
Well, we see in Scripture that the Father gave all of the disciples to Jesus; However, Jesus kept them all except Judas, though.
John 17:12 says:
"While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled."
Now, allow me to rephrase this in modern-terminology:
While I was with the marbles in the world, I kept them. Those marbles that you gave me I kept, and none are lost, but the green marble.
And OSAS terminology:
While I was with the marbles in the world, I kept them. Those marbles that you gave me I kept, and none are lost, except for the green marble that you never gave me.
Do you see now how OSAS doesn't make any sense?
