Preserving Grace - Can We Lose Our Salvation?: The Doctrines of Grace in John with Steven Lawson

What good is it to be redeemed if in the end you could fall away? In this message, Steven Lawson encourages us that our perseverance in the faith is not dependent upon our holding on to Christ, but rather His promise to hold onto us.

If Christ's work on the cross is not strong enough to hold me and my salvation, then nothing matters and I'm staying in tomorrow. But he is enough, his work on the cross covers all, and I thank God for his blood shed for me and his power to hold our salvation!

Once save always save is the doctrine of the devil because it does not result in repentance. Once we accept Christ through faith then repentance from our sins follows and there is only true repentance if we stop in doing habitual sins.

[@jimcovell1067]

If we loose our salvation than obviously heaven will be empty. Depending on ourselves will get us nowhere but eternal damnation.

[@RichardM1366]

Losing what you did nothing to earn is ridiculous. Salvation was given to us thru the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ who secured us forever in his Grace! Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved and your house. Jesus said whoever believes in me will NEVER perish. Saying you can lose salvation is saying the sacrifice is invalid.

Who knows what to believe from these so called preachers anymore. What is truth? Reading the Bible is the only way i know that i have the truth. God please help us with the true word. GOD bless everyone. AMEN

Obviously not. A person can't lose something that God Himself decided to give that individual. Salvation is based 100% on the grace of God.

I love this Truth this man is preaching. You can’t ever lose your salvation that was gifted freely to us by the the shed 🩸of Jesus Christ. There is one quick observation I heard him say which is probably a slip of words. He said for John 3:16 the verse says you shall not perish. Actually, it says you should not perish which should and shall have different meanings.

[@aussierob7177]

Of course we can lose our salvation. Is anybody immune to sin ?

I love the truth of this amazing doctrine

[@graylad]

I got saved in a Pentecostal church (Arminian), but I knew as a newborn believer that I was going to fall away because I knew that I was fickle. Having come to this conclusion, the most important prayers I prayed was Lord Jesus, I cannot keep my self saved so I relinquish all rights to free will and ask you to do what ever You need to do to keep me saved. May your will keep me as I surrender my will to yours. Amen.

The way Charles H. Spurgeon was baited and couldn't resist the calling despite his humanely depraving feeling, was John
