Sure. But do you even understand what this means?And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, Hebrews 5:9 eternal salvation to all who obey Him,
John 14:6 - Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
This isn't referring to a lifestyle or behavior. It's speaking about faith in Christ alone for salvation.
John 3:15,16
15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Where do you see anything about obedience here?
John 5:24 - “Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.
John 6:47 - Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life.
where do you see anything about obedience here?
John 10:28 - I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.
Nothing about works here either. And v.27 isn't any kind of conditional clause as is being falsely claimed by Arminians.
John 11:25,26
25Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;
26and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
What is very clear from Scripture is that salvation and eternal life are based on faith in Christ. Not works, not lifestyle, not behavior. Those do not save anyone.
