Ever read Matthew 7 or Matthew 24?
I had ALL the "lose your salvation" verses memorized. I KNOW THEM from when I couldn't see His blood was sufficient. I preached the same thing you are preaching now! And I was miserable and spent more time preaching his cross wasn't enough than I did preaching A GRACE THAT WAS SUFFICIENT for EVERYTHING.

Remember, they have been bought with a price (the precious blood of the lamb), they belong to God. One of the things that helped me with those tough salvation verses, that appeared to proclaim I could be "unsaved" from the "penalty of sin", was the revelation that God's salvation is past, present, and future tense. We should never mix the ETERNAL PENALTY of sin with the ongoing salvation from sin in our walk. Because if we turn away from his Grace we will no longer be saved from the POWER of sin in our walk, and if we do so.. sin and death will surely follow! But our spirits will still be saved on the day of the Lord. Paul shows this in this verse...

1 Corinthians 5:5
deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

This wonderful salvation is not dead but ALIVE… Risen from the tomb, and not “one dimensional” but past, present, and future tense.

When we first come to Christ we are saved from the PENALTY of sin by Jesus Christ and Him Crucified, and everyday as we reckon His wonderful forgiveness we are saved from the POWER of sin by Jesus Christ and Him Crucified, and when our Lord finally comes to take us home we will be saved from the PRESENCE of sin by Jesus Christ and Him Crucified!! For the power of His Cross extends from YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND FOREVER!! A message with a hope that is ALIVE!!

When we believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, through the greatest love story ever told, we die with Christ, are washed in His blood, and are raised and seated with Christ in the heavenlies.

This is the message that saves, this is a HUMBLE KING on a LONELY HILL, this is an EMPTY TOMB, this is THE POWER OF GOD… THIS IS THE GOSPEL!!!

And that is why I believe Paul told the Church Corinth after SEVERAL SHARP REBUKES, all he wanted from them was JESUS CHRIST AND HIM CRUCIFIED. He knew if they were clinging to the simple message that saved them from their sins the rest of the house would be in order. Salvation from the POWER of sin in our walk does not come from us trying to hold on to our salvation, but through the JOY AND POWER of knowing IT IS FINISHED!! The Spirit will manifest a life that is not of human effort when we walk in GRACE THAT IS SUFFICIENT!!

1 Corinthians 2:2
For I determined not to know ANYTHING among you except JESUS CHRIST AND HIM CRUCIFIED.

2 Corinthians 12:9
And He said to me, “MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR YOU, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that THE POWER OF CHRIST MAY REST UPON ME.

Grace and Peace....

Or pathetic attempt at more shenanigans ?
The lifeguard is a paid hireling (usually). Also, he cannot ever save anyone's soul.
Also, he cannot save someone who is swimming in a pool across town from where he is.

Such shenanigans , misrepresenting the Almighty in a thwarted attempt to support a false gospel teaching is disingenuous and a deceitful ploy by the enemy of Christ to pervert the truth and to destroy people's souls - instead of helping anyone to be saved !

Dear Zoidar: The Lord Jesus Christ is not a potential Saviour. He requires no help from any of us. He takes full responsibility for the souls for whom He is the Mercy-Seat. I believe He loses nothing, not remnant bread and fish, and most assuredly not any of us. NONE!

Hi FineLinen,

The image you posted I found quite provoking, since it gives a disturbed image of God. Christ is the lifeguard who swims out through stormy water to save every marooned sailor, everyone! But when people hate him and refuses follow him back to the safe land, he can't help them. He is swimming back to them many times during their lifetime, calling on them, waiting for them. One day it will be too late, the marooned sailors will starve to death on the shipwreck, not God's intention for them, but He allows their choice.

Christ love,
P

Correct, it is not the topic, I will post another thread addressing all these questions.

I LOVE the picture, but not your message. The whole matter is settled by Jesus the Christ stating in the Revelation that He has made ALL things new. He mentioned no exceptions to this, such as the "unsaved."

1 Corinthians 5:5 Paul said so that his spirit MAY be saved. He did not say his spirit WILL be saved. In 2 Corinthians 2:5-7 Paul tells the church to go to this man and forgive him and comfort him. The whole point of this was to bring him back to repentance so that he would be saved.

Of course Christ’s sacrifice is sufficient, but what good will it do if you are cut off from Christ by The Father? John 15:2 What good will Christ’s sacrifice be to you if you don’t abide in Christ? John 15:6 What good will Christ’s sacrifice be to you if by your denying Him He denies you before The Father? 1 Timothy 2:12.

He is NOT a potential Saviour, He saves to the uttermost the sheep in His fold and the wandering one who has trotted off. He loses NOTHING, not sheep, not goats, not broken and bruised vessels of any of Adam1. There is no such animal as "too late", He searches until He finds!

The steadfast love of the Lord NEVER ceases: EVER

Dear Skidder: As an old man I am beginning to be patient. You still have not produced one single individual who is a flaw on Father as a result of the proclamation of the Restitution of all things. While we continue to wait let's add another rascal to "the list'.

Dear Skidder: "The list" includes one of the most remarkable vessels of God's grace. His name is George MacDonald. You will find his unspoken sermons below>>>

Christ is the sacrifice therefore He is the payment for all sins. Those who reject the Christ reject the payment because Christ is the sacrifice. IN NO WAY is Christ separate from the payment. "IN HIM we have redemption through His blood the forgiveness of sins" It says IN HIM not outside of Christ in any way. There is no "sin free zone" outside of Christ. If a persons is IN CHRIST they are forgiven through His blood, if they are OUTSIDE of Christ because they reject HIM... They will surely DIE IN THEIR SINS.

I believe the best way to explain why those who reject Christ are still under God’s wrath is by explaining the two covenants. The letter (old) and the Spirit (new). Only those who are born of the Spirit are IN CHRIST and freed from the law (letter).

Romans 2:29
but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in THE SPIRIT, not in THE LETTER; whose praise is not from men but from God.

Romans 7:6
But now we have been delivered from the LAW, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of THE SPIRIT and not in the oldness of the LETTER.

2 Corinthians 3:6
who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the LETTER but of the SPIRIT; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

In these verses we clearly see that the two covenants are of the Law and the Spirit. So which one of these covenants is by grace?

Romans 6:14
For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are NOT UNDER LAW but UNDER GRACE.

Matthew 26:28
For this is MY BLOOD of the NEW COVENANT, which is shed for many for the REMISSION OF SINS.

Ephesians 1:7
IN WHOM we have redemption THROUGH HIS BLOOD, the forgiveness of sins, according to the RICHES OF HIS GRACE;

Now let's take a look at why those who reject Christ are under god’s wrath and not under grace….

John 3:36
He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the WRATH OF GOD abides on him.”

Romans 4:15
because THE LAW brings about WRATH; for where there is NO LAW there is NO TRANSGRESSION.

Romans 5:13
For until the law sin was in the world: but SIN IS NOT IMPUTED when there is NO LAW.

There is only one way to die to the old (law) and be born of the Spirit (new) and that is by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. To die to the law is to die to sin, and those who are free from the law are no longer under God’s wrath.

Romans 7:1-2
Or do you not know, brethren (for I speak to those who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives? 2 For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the HUSBAND DIES, she is RELEASED FROM THE LAW of her husband.

Romans 7:4
Therefore, my brethren, you also have become DEAD TO THE LAW through the BODY OF CHRIST, that you may be MARRIED TO ANOTHER—to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God

Romans 10:4
For CHRIST IS THE END OF THE LAW for righteousness to EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES.

Romans 6:5-11
For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, 6 knowing this, that our old man was CRUCIFIED WITH HIM, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. 7 For HE WHO HAS DIED has been FREED FROM SIN. 8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. 11 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be DEAD INDEED TO SIN, but ALIVE TO GOD IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.

Colossians 1:21-22
And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled 22 IN THE BODY OF HIS FLESH THROUGH DEATH, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight—

Summary:
A person is either under the law (letter) or under grace. There is no in-between. When a person believes in the Lord Jesus Christ they die to the law through the body of Christ and are married to another. They must first die to the old to be born of the Spirit. The Spirit is of the New Covenant and the letter is of the Old. The law (letter) brings wrath because NO ONE can fulfill its righteous requirements. But we have a blessed hope in all this hopelessness. We have the Lamb of God who is the end of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes. He was the only one who could fulfill these requirements, and those requirements were met when this righteous lamb of God was crucified on a lonely hill called Calvary. So those who reject Christ are under God’s wrath because they are still under the law, therefore still under the condemnation of sin. Their sins are still counted against them because they have rejected the end of the law.. Who is CHRIST JESUS… the PAYMENT for ALL SINS!!

He is the RESURRECTION and the LIFE because HE IS THE PAYMENT FOR OUR SINS... THE SACRIFICE! Remember ONLY IN CHRIST do we have redemption through His blood the forgiveness of sins. And if anyone is IN CHRIST, OLD THINGS have PASSED AWAY, ALL THINGS HAVE BECOME NEW!! They have to be IN CHRIST to be REDEEMED. There is no “sin free zone” outside of Christ because HE IS THE ATONING SACRIFICE... HE IS THE PROPITIATION… HE IS REDEMPTION… HE IS OUR SANCTIFICATION… HE IS OUR RECONCILIATION… HE IS OUR JUSTIFICATION… HE IS OUR FORGIVENESS… HE IS OUR REDEEMER!! HE IS THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE!! Therefore HE IS OUR ALL IN ALL!!

Grace and Peace….

Death no longer has dominion over Him. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. 11 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be DEAD INDEED TO SIN, but ALIVE TO GOD IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.

Colossians 1:21-22

I will repeat this again, only IN CHRIST is there redemption through His blood the forgiveness of sins. Not outside of Christ in any way. You have to be IN CHRIST to have forgiveness of sins. There is not "sin free zone" outside of Christ, HE IS our all in all....

Ephesians 1:7
IN HIM we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace

Colossians 1:14
IN WHOM we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is IN CHRIST, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

If we defend IN CHRIST than we defend all that is IN HIM, if we stray from IN CHRIST than we SET ASIDE THE GRACE that has been poured out for us through HIS BODY AND BLOOD!! But we are not of those who take things from IN CHRIST and hand them to the flesh! ABSOLUTELY NOT!! We are the REDEEMED OF THE LORD, WASHED IN THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF THE LAMB!! A PEOPLE OF GOD’S OWN POSSESSION, A HOLY NATION, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD who still carry around with us that OLD TREE, and who still preach that simple old old love story to a lonely heart in need of RESCUE! That PRECIOUS STORY of an UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND MERCY demonstrated by a KING WHO TOOK IT ALL AND GAVE IT ALL on a LONELY HILL CALLED CALVARY!!

Dear Zoidar: I find any statement that limits the scope of the salvation of Jesus Christ beyond provoking. He is NOT a potential Saviour, He saves to the uttermost the sheep in His fold and the wandering one who has trotted off. He loses NOTHING, not sheep, not goats, not broken and bruised vessels of any of Adam1. There is no such animal as "too late", He searches until He finds!

The steadfast love of the Lord NEVER ceases: EVER

Sorry, but then you are beyond provoked by Jesus. We all want everyone to be saved, it's just not a biblical teaching.

Dear Skidder: Is the same many "made sinners" in Adam "made righteous" in Christ Jesus the Last Adam?

"Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Wherein he has abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: In whom also we have obtained an "inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will."

Just like all men under Adam were made sinners, all men under Christ are made righteous.

Sorry, but then you are beyond provoked by Jesus. We all want everyone to be saved, it's just not a biblical teaching.

Dear Zoidar: What I desire, my friend, is perfect rectitude. Not everyone simply saved, every last broken wreck of Adam "made righteous".

People would love to have everyone saved. But it never is going to happen, according to God's Instructions - so if people go along with their errors, with the false gospel giving them false hope, they just continue in deceit/ deception/ and error more and more and more.

Dear Zoidar the exact number "made sinners" = the exact number "made righteous".

Polus= polus: many= many: all=all
