Do you REALLY BELIEVE one can be UNSTEADFAST/FAITHLESS but still SAVED??? Then please tell me what salvation IS to you? How does "BORN-AGAIN" (especially Gal2:20) allow faithlessness?A fall from "Stedfastness" is not loss of Salvation. A fall from steadfastness is nothing but a loss of confidence.
NEVER BE BLAMELESS/HOLY? Not true; in Christ we have become the righteousness of God. 2Cor5:21 See1Jn3:6-10; children of God are righteous, children of the devil are unrighteous---he states that is how we tell them apart...First, we should all easily recognize that man will never be holy, blameless, spotless, without blemish, and without sin. Any of these qualities would have to be IMPUTED to man ONLY through the Blood of Jesus. However, man is commanded to be holy and without sin, so how can this be? The Christian's walk or walk In The Spirit is described many times as a fight or a run. Colossians 1:23 could easily say "Keep Looking Up" in this fight. The believer's foundation is not his own righteousness, rather the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
Nope, 1Tim1:1 says Jesus HIMSELF is our hope. Do you think Paul was uttering hyperbole in col1:23? If it wasn't a real warning, why did he waste words?The "Hope of the Gospel" spoken of in Colossians 1:23 is eternal life and happiness in and through Jesus Christ. The "Hope of the Gospel" spoken of in Colossians 1:23 is eternal life and happiness in and through Jesus Christ.
Just so!! But it's through our BELIEF!It should be obvious by now that Jesus Christ and HIS Blood are Holiness and Righteousness IMPUTED to his flock.
