    Blotted out???

    Hello M.O.G. A response you gave a few posts ago was reference to Matt 24:13. I understand Jesus was speaking of the tribulation. All the more reason to endure to the end in faith. Maybe your Bible says Jesus was talking to the Israelites, but mine says He was answering His disciples two...

    To Hervey: BINGO!! :D

    Can you lose your salvation??

    I believe the beginning poster was concerned about his losing his salvation. Confession of sin and true heartfelt repentance to the best of your ability not to repeat the sin I believe is the answer. Paul said in Rom 7:19-25, 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would...

    Blotted out???

    Man do I love you RKBO as one Christian brother to another. God Bless your heart, you are as convinced of your salvation and the maintenance of it as probably anyone I've ever seen. That is a blessing and refreshing. I pray to God you never lose that because you need that assurance in your...

    Blotted out???

    Hello M.O.G. This is to you and RKBO. See if this makes any sense? Matthew 24:13 Jesus said, "But he that endures to the end shall be saved." What did He mean by "but He that endures to the end shall be saved.", if it doesn't imply that if you don't endure to the end you won't be...

    Can you lose your salvation??

    RKBO, :) Please, you don't need to be "magnanamous", I like your debate abilities. If this thread is to end I would like to ask a couple of things before we depart. BTW I have read the thread from the beginning. Also, I prescribe to the believe that "nothing, nothing, nothing" can keep me...

    Should Bin Laden be executed or allowed to live?

    Hi Droobie, Hope the fires down under are soon out. I understand your position. I would ask the question, does imprisonment deter crime? Apparently not, because we continue to run out of jail space. In either case, life imprisonment or capital punishment both can have innocent people...

    Blotted out???

    Open post: Rev 13:8, "All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast-all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world."NIV Rev 17:8, "The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and will come up out of...

    Can you lose your salvation??

    Very Good Hervey! Hello RKBO: :) Said, "The "work out " part is the fact that we indeed are working out our salvation in that Jesus is working us toward the ultimate goal of final salvation. The goal being our imortal bodies and heavinly home. We are assured of it as if we were already...

    Can you lose your salvation??

    RKBO, Please forgive me for butting in, but wasn't the Pharisees speaking of Jesus in Matt 12:24 and not the Holy Spirit?:confused:

    Should Bin Laden be executed or allowed to live?

    Hi Droobie, That question begs another. What about the innocence of Jesus? We live in an imperfect world. Not everytime will justice be meted out by man justly do you think? The one who was innocent would he be offered special consideration when arriving for judgement day maybe? Based on...

    Can you lose your salvation??

    An open question to anyone. I'm curious? It has been posted: "All true Christians that are adopted into the family of God are save and in the process of being saved and shall be saved. We overcome because Christ gives us that strenghth to do so." Does that mean there are different stages to...

    Can you lose your salvation??

    Yes, God's word is unlike any other. We sometimes read it, but not read it if you know what I mean. Three words to scripture in my estimation, context, context, context. Also, we need to know more of the Old Testament to better understand the New Testament. After all approx. 80% of the Bible is...

    Can you lose your salvation??

    I'm new to the forum and didn't know about the changes that were about to happen. I made a post early this A.M. and I guess it was lost in the shuffle. It was rather too long anyway so, I will try this shorter version. In regard to the Once Saved Always Saved question I submit the following...
