This sums up your whole theology!
Simply telling everyone who doesn’t agree with your man made theology, that they don’t know what the scripture means.
What is simple is the clarity of your own errors. When faced with clear Scripture that totally refutes your opinions, you just dodge.
You deny the truth, twisting it to conform to your narrow doctrine of OSAS
I keep giving you clear Scripture that TEACHES eternal security, but you simply deny the truth. Again, you are just projecting.
Got it.
Those who obey Him, receive eternal salvation.
To believe the gospel is how people are saved, which I've PROVEN with many verses.
Those who live in disobedience to Him, receive His wrath and indignation.
Yes, God will discipline His rebellious children.
And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him, Hebrews 5:9
Explain how Jesus was "perfected". Do you believe that He wasn't perfect before He went to the cross?
Your doctrine promotes disobedience, teaching God’s people the lie.
Nonsense. I promote what the Word of God teaches; that God will discipline and punish His children who disobey.
And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12
Great verse. Teaches the same thing that John 3:18 teaches.
"Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already
because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son."
Just look at the red words "did not believe" and "have not believed". It means NEVER believed.
That condemnation (lake of fire) is for those who "have not believed". So much for your erroneous theory about the Greek present tense.
To "have not believed" means to have NEVER believed, since no time frame is mentioned in context. In either verse.
Jesus Christ our Lord, solemnly warned us to remain in Him, or be cast out and thrown into the fire and burned.
This demonstrates a total lack of understanding of parables and figures of speech. The subject in Johh 15:1-7 is about bearing fruit, not getting saved. Branches that don't bear fruit are discarded from use. Duh.
Believers who don't bear fruit are discarded from use or service, and will suffer the consequences of God's discipline, not condemnation, as you presume.
\If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. John 15:6
It is just amazing how little regard for understanding Scripture that Arminians show.
Abiding is about fellowship. But Arminians deny the whole thing. There is no fellowship in their theology. It's either saved or lost. Nothing in between.
In a marriage, that's a RELATIONSHIP, which in God's plan, is PERMANENT. Yet, in that PERMANENT marriage, there may be fellowship, or a break in fellowship, all dependent upon whether one spouse offends the other.
In the Christian life, when believers sin, they OFFEND the Lord. That breaks fellowship.
This is why Scripture says this:
Psa 66:18 - If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;
This verse describes what LOSS of fellowship looks like.
When you offend your wife, does she listen to you? Only when you repent and confess your offenses. Not until then. And that's when fellowship is restored.
Here is how we are instructed to remain “in Christ”:
Wrong. We are NOT instructed how to "remain in Christ". The sealing with the Holy Spirit is a GUARANTEE of our inheritance until the day of redemption, according to Eph 1:13,14.
Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us. 1 John 3:24
This verse is about how to remain IN FELLOWSHIP with the Lord; by keeping His commandments. This avoids offending Him and LOSING fellowship.
Do you teach people they must keep His commandments in order to remain “in Christ” ?
No, I teach the truth, that keeping the Lord's commandments is HOW to REMAIN IN FELLOWSHIP with Christ. And it's the ONLY WAY to bear fruit.
But you have indicated that you know nothing about that.
I find it typical, and interesting, that you failed to address Rom 6:8. Why would that be?
And you failed to answer any question about that verse.
When you believed in Christ, did you die with Him, or not? Or do you not understand what I'm asking?
