- Can you lose your Salvation? Is it possible for a person’s name to be erased from the Book of Life? When questioning eternal security \ once saved always saved, and whether or not a name can be erased from the Book of Life, the Bible has the answer. In this video Pastor Nelson with Bible Munch looks at Revelation 22:19, concerning the Book of Life / Tree of Life mentioned, and explains why losing your salvation, or having your name erased from the Book of Life in the Bible, is not possible.

Thank you! I have struggled with this because it is not what I was taught when I first got saved. This has the potential to cause anxiety to the believer.
Revelation 22:18-19 ESV - *"I warn EVERYONE who hears the words of the prophecy of this book:* IF ANYONE *adds to them,* God *will ADD to him* the plagues described in this book,
AND if ANYONE *takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy,* God *will take away* HIS SHARE IN *the tree of life and in the holy city,* which are described in this book."
This says God will add plagues described in this book TO people, *OR* take away their SHARE described in this book FROM people, *FOR THEIR DISOBEDIENCE.*
God taking away the eternal REWARDS still seems very detrimental to me.
This was NOT the ONLY time blotting out names was mentioned.
Exodus 32:33 NKJV - "And the LORD said to Moses, 'Whoever has sinned against Me, *I will blot him out of My book.'* "
Psalm 69:28 NKJV - "Let them *be blotted out of the book of the living, And not be written with the righteous."*
Revelation 3:4-5 NKJV - “You have *a FEW names* even in Sardis who have NOT defiled their garments; and *they* shall walk with Me in white, for *they* are worthy.
*He who overcomes* shall be clothed in white garments, and *I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life;* but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels."
It said *a FEW names have NOT defile their garments (vs. 4).*
They'd be who overcame (vs. 5).
If the *FEW* are who *overcome,* what happens to the rest of the church?
Scripture relays much more than what folks like @@jasonreed2116 philosophize. We should rather trust Christ's work *AND His WORDS.*
*Christ* described *what we have DONE* and *what we DID NOT DO, when we get judged.*
Matthew 25:41-46 NKJV - “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, *you cursed, into the everlasting fire* prepared for the devil and his angels:
*for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink;*
*I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’*
Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and *DID NOT minister to You?’*
Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, *inasmuch as you DID NOT do it* to one of the least of these, *you DID NOT do it to Me.’*
And *these will go away into everlasting punishment,* but the righteous into eternal life.”
Matthew 25:1-2 NKJV - “Then *the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to TEN VIRGINS* who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
Now *FIVE of them were WISE, and FIVE were FOOLISH."*
Christ described that *the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to TEN VIRGINS; FIVE of them were WISE, and FIVE were FOOLISH.*
What does Christ say about the *unprofitable servant?*
Matthew 25:30 NKJV - " ‘And *cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'* "
Galatians 6:2 NKJV - "Bear one another’s burdens, and so *fulfill the law of Christ."*
Faith believers are instructed to *fulfill the law of Christ.* We seem to have our *own WORK to DO, & examine.*
Gal. 6:4 NKJV - "But *let each one examine his own WORK,* and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another."
Gal. 6:9-10 NKJV - "And let us NOT grow weary *while DOING GOOD,* for in due season *we shall reap IF we do not lose heart.*
Therefore, as we have opportunity, *let us DO GOOD to all,* especially to those who are of the household of faith."
1Timothy 4:10 NKJV - "For to this end *we both LABOR and SUFFER reproach, BECAUSE we trust in the living God,* who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe."
The Apostle Paul said we *LABOR and SUFFER BECAUSE we trust in God,* right?
Matthew 7:24 NKJV - “Therefore *whoever HEARS* these sayings of Mine, *AND DOES THEM, I will liken him to a WISE man* who built his house on the rock:"
Matthew 7:26-27 NKJV - “But *everyone who HEARS* these sayings of Mine, *AND DOES NOT DO them,* will be like a *FOOLISH man* who built his house on the sand:
and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; *and it fell. And great was its fall."*
Luke 13:24 KJV - *"Strive to enter in at the strait gate:* for *MANY,* I say unto you, *will seek to enter in, and shall not be able."*
Galatians 2:17 KJV - "But *IF, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves ALSO are found sinners,* is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid."
Regardless of what we believe & confess, IF we practice lawlessness, He'll say depart from Me (Matt. 7:21-23).
IF we do NOT FORGIVE from our hearts, neither will He FORGIVE US (Matt. 6:15; Mark 11:26).
Abide in Him & bring forth fruit that the Father is glorified (John 15:1-8), or get cast out, withered & burnt.
Love Him (John 14:15), and you will keep (obey) His commandments; His WORDS.
John 14:23 NKJV - "Jesus answered and said to him, *'IF anyone loves Me, he will keep My WORD;* and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.
*He who does NOT love Me does NOT keep My WORDS;* and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me.' "
See. Rev. 2 & 3.
Matt. 7:13-27; 13:47-50; 24:44-51; 25:1-46 & Luke 12:35-48; all talk about the kingdom of heaven. Please examine w/John 15:1-17.
1Peter 4:17-18 NKJV - "For the time has come for *judgment to begin at the house of God;* and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?
Now if the righteous one is SCARCELY saved, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?”
Don't grieve the Holy Spirit. He that hath an ear, let him hear *what the Spirit says to the churches (Rev. 2-3).*
These scriptures encourage faith believers to *humble themselves, REPENT, watch, pray, and be ready...or else.* They present the reality of punishment for believers that practice sin; they ought NOT do so.
Luke 12:45-48 talks about servants of the Lord. Isn't *getting beaten with MANY stripes punishment?*
Aren't the *disobedient servants* that KNEW their Lord's will, *made distinct FROM unbelievers* who didn't know, and also did things worthy of stripes?
MANY stripes denotes punishment is *worse on them* than on those who *did not know His will,* but did things worthy of stripes. They got FEW stripes.
Matt. 24:45-51 mirrors Luke 12:42-48. In Luke 12:48 the wicked *servants who did NOT their Lord's will* share in portion w/unbelievers (hypocrites).
Matt. 25:40 has unprofitable servants cast away in sadness, pain and/or suffering.
Luke 12:40 NKJV - “Therefore *you also be ready,* for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”
Revelation 19:7 NKJV - “Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and *His wife has made herself ready.”*
Luke 6:46 NKJV - “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ *and NOT DO the things which I say?"*
Luke 12:42-44 NKJV - "And the Lord said, *'Who then is that FAITHFUL and WISE steward,* whom his master will make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of food in due season?
*Blessed is that servant* whom his master will find *so DOING when HE comes.*
Truly, I say to you that *HE will make him ruler over all that he has."*
1Timothy 6:12 KJV - *"Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called,* and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses."
Romans 2:9 KJV - "Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man *that doeth evil,* of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;"
Romans 2:10 KJV - *"But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that WORKETH GOOD,* to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:"
Galatians 6:7 NKJV - *"Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap."*
Romans 11:20-22 NKJV - "Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and *you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but FEAR.*
For if God did not spare the natural branches, *He may not spare YOU either.*
Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but *toward you, goodness, IF you continue* in His goodness. OTHERWISE *YOU also WILL BE CUT OFF."*
Hebrews 12:14-15 KJV - "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
Looking *diligently LEST* ANY man *FAIL of the grace of God;* LEST any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, *and thereby MANY BE DEFILED;"*
@@jasonreed2116 Christ's WORDS *are NOT* the law of Moses, also known as the old Covenant.
You really had to dismiss *ALL of the New Testament SCRIPTURE* to think I was referring to keeping the works of the law.
Galatians 3:10 NKJV - "For *as many as are of the WORKS of the law are UNDER the CURSE;* for it is written, 'Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.”
Galatians 3:13 NKJV - *"Christ has redeemed us FROM the CURSE of the law,* having become a curse for us (for it is written, 'Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree'),"
Romans 8:2 NKJV - "For *the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me FREE FROM the law of sin and death."*
*None of those scriptures had ANYTHING with keeping the law of Moses.*
This is *New Testament doctrine found IN SCRIPTURE.*
Verses were either quoted or referenced that communicated what was pointed out.
It's not my righteousness. This is about trusting *& obeying God in faith.*
Ephesians 2:8-10 NKJV - "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
*not OF WORKS, lest anyone should boast.*
For we are His workmanship, *created in Christ Jesus FOR GOOD WORKS,* which *God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them."*
Were YOU created in Christ *FOR GOOD WORKS?*
*God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them [GOOD WORKS], right?*
Titus 2:1 NKJV - "But as for you, *speak the things which are proper for SOUND doctrine:"*
2Timothy 4:3 NKJV - "For the time will come when *they will NOT endure SOUND doctrine,* but according to their own desires, *because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;"*
Let us believe and speak *truth from SCRIPTURE,* not what people think.
Luke 14:26 NKJV - "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, *he CANNOT BE My disciple."*
Luke 14:27 NKJV - "And *whoever does NOT bear his cross AND come after Me CANNOT BE My DISCIPLE."*
Luke 14:33 NKJV - “So likewise, *whoever of you does NOT forsake all that he has CANNOT BE My DISCIPLE."*
These truths are not from me. These are WORDS *from Jesus Christ* FOR His disciples.
Matthew 16:24-25 NKJV - "Then Jesus said to His disciples, *'If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me."*
For *whoever desires to save his life will lose it,* BUT *whoever loses his life for My sake will find it."*
Philippians 2:12 NKJV - "Therefore, my beloved, *as you have always obeyed,* not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, *work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;"*
@@jasonreed2116 Indeed, Isaiah's words are true, but did NOT apply to what I was saying.
I had asked you a couple of questions that you never answered.
Ephesians 2:10 NKJV - "For we are His workmanship, *created in Christ Jesus FOR GOOD WORKS,* which *God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them."*
Were YOU created in Christ *FOR GOOD WORKS?*
*God prepared [GOOD WORKS] beforehand that we should walk in them, right?*
When we accept what the scripture says, we can *speak the same, in the same mind and in the same judgment,* as the SCRIPTURE instructs us to.
1Corinthians 1:10 KJV - "Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, *that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you;* but that ye be perfectly joined together *in the same mind and in the same judgment."*
I think if you clicked on this video for the main reason most of us did, and didnt get the reply you expected, its because you have to understand how your free will and faith(either to this world and the evil spirts that inhibit and stain the Lord's creation and glory) (Or to God, trusting in Him full heartedly), works. Its definitely always a choice to abandon God, but someone who is born again, has sworn allegiance to God, not just in words, but spirit too, will always choose God. It's hard to deny someone who is so persistent and kind. Its hard to explain with just words, but this is what it means to be a true Christian, from what I can understand.
Sir, I want to confess that I have been deceived by people who claim to be Christians and use the Bible to back themselves up for their own esteem. I thank God and you for helping me to open my eyes clearly. Also, please forgive me. I wanted more knowledge of God. I'll make sure to stick with everything that the Bible has written, and I will never do anything to change it.
The world is broken. Sin rules the earth. Being a born again Christian - the fruit of The Spirit is: Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Self-Control, Gentleness. Not everyone who says “Lord Lord we cast out demons in Your Name” is His. You will know a tree by its fruit. Being deceived is the strategy of satan. Is it right to blame other Christians for you being deceived? Or is it your responsibility to look in The Word of God & Pray to God (rely on God - not people) for the answers you seek. Remember there is a lot of false pastors, church goers, prophets, because an angel of light can also deceive them - always Test the spirits - by making them repeat - “Jesus Chris came in the flesh” . Even Christian’s are at various locations of their growth in God. Be patient & remember all of us fail at one time or another, pray 🙏 for them, & for yourself. ❤️

It is said, that in Jesus' day, every citizen had their name written on their city's scroll. When they died, their name was blotted out of that scroll. Jesus is telling us, He will never blot out the name of those who follow Him from the Heavenly city scroll, even after their body dies.

Brother I am sure you will get a lot of feedback from those who disagree with you. But you are 100% right on!!! God bless you

@@sharonalexander6383, you are calling God a liar!!
That's blasphemy.
Thank you for this very clear answer. I'd never noticed that verse before though I've read Revelation many times. As a young Christian, I had been taught that I could not lose my salvation by excellent Bible teachers in England, but later on, I attended in France a Free Will Baptist mission, and was very confused by their teaching that salvation could be lost based on Hebrews 6 and 10. Especially as I went on afterwards to marry a non Christian and stayed away from the Lord for a long time: I remember thinking if my first teachers were right, one day I will return to God, but if the Free Will Baptists are right, I have now lost my salvation. As it turned out, I did return to the Lord, but, though the Bible clearly teaches eternal security, verse such as Rev 22.19 and the Hebrews chapters are challenging.
True, we are sealed for the day of redemption, but that does not mean that we can’t walk away of our own accord. Yes, no one can pluck you from the hand of God, but then again…, you can jump out of His hand by your own volition.
Salvation is a daily walk. People can’t be saved and act like the Devil and expect to make it into Heaven.
We must be careful with what we tell people. Blessings, Pastor Nelson.
THANK YOU! God bless!
If someone only "Supposed" their name to be in the Lambs book of life then it was never really there. Therefore it could not be removed. As for no one snatching us out of the Father's hand, that is true. But, by choice, free will, someone can leave the Father's hand and return to the world. No one needs to look any further than the life of Demus in the Bible and how Paul said he had gone back out into the world. In short, in order to go to heaven you have to want to go to heaven.
Romans 11:6
But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace
The works referred in the text is the works of the Law. Living by the grace of God requires you to obey the gospel. Obeying the gospel means doing and living a righteous and sanctified life; in that sense you will have to do works (works not under the Law).
@@paeng46
Obeying the Gospel means that you accept that you are guilty in front of God, because all of the works we have done means nothing in front of Him because of our sins. There was nothing we could do in order to be saved neither to keep the salvation .
We are doing good works because we are saved, not to be saved. That faith that saved us will eventually be confirmed by good works.
Noone is saying here that we shouldn't do good at all because that cant be true faith.
@@stefan00017
That’s how you got it wrong. Can you show me one passage in the whole Bible that says we don’t have to obey God in his word in the gospel because we are saved by the grace of God? You cannot find that. On the contrary, because of the grace of God, we ought to live a righteous, sober and godly life before God because we justified by his grace (read Titus 2:11-12). But because you confused justification with salvation then you think that we don’t have to obey the gospel because of his grace. No, you’re wrong. Grace is God's providence of his will that is freely given to men to allow and enable them to live by the gospel (Titus 2:11-12). Because of the grace of God, men will no longer subject themselves to the Jewish Law in order to be justified before God (Galatians 5:4). In the dispensation of the grace of God, anyone who believes in the Lord Jesus Christ is justified of his faith without doing the deeds of Law (Acts 13:39).
Justification requires you to do no work (Romans 5;4-5; Ephesians 2:8-9). You only have to believe in the Lord and you will be justified of your faith. That is justification because of the grace of God. But justification is not salvation in the context of its entirety. It's where you begin your Christian life as a believer. Salvation requires you to *OBEY* the gospel. In that sense, you have to do works to obtain it (John 15:2,6). But because you don't know the difference between justification and salvation; hence, you think and believe that you don't have to obey God and to do works to be saved. In conclusion, you don't have to do works to be justified by God. You only have to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. That's justification and it is exactly what Ephesians 2:8-9 & Romans 4:1-5 are saying. Salvation requires you to live by the gospel (1 Corinthians 15:1-2). In that sense you will have to do works when you obey the gospel. It is the fruit of your faith (2 Timothy 2:21). You are lost to believe that you don't have to obey God of his commandments to be saved. Jesus himself said "but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments"(Matthew 19:17). He even said that "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me" (John 26:21). Your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ must produce the fruits of his commandments. That’s what you do be saved- obeying God in his word.
@@paeng46 read what i wrote, don't just copy, paste the text. Dont waste my time
@@stefan00017
And you said that *_”we are doing good works because we are saved, not to be saved.”_* and you added that *_”that faith that saved us will eventually be confirmed by good works.”_* That’s how wrong you are. We do good works because of the commandments of the Lord, and the good works that we are doing is the result of the faith that we have in him (John 15:5-6). Good works do not confirm our salvation. It confirm our faith. If we have no good works that means we don’t have faith in the savior. We are not doing and following his teachings and commandments. And you keep saying that you are saved. You believe that you are saved. No, you are not. There is no salvation given at this time yet, not until the day of the redemption of purchased possession comes (Eph. 1:14 which is the resurrection).
Eternal salvation (or eternal life) is a
promise to all obedient believers (although spoken of as a present possession due to the certainty of it), but the actual possession of everlasting life is reserved in heaven. Peter said we are begotten again unto a lively hope to "an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, *RESERVED* in heaven for you" (1 Pet. 1:3-4).
There is no salvation in the fulness of its essence given yet at this present time to any believers. What we have now is the *hope of salvation* (see Titus 1:3 & 3:21), not the promised salvation. Complete salvation is only given at the redemption of the purchased possession- which is the resurrection (see Ephesians 1:24).
Paul said that if we already possessed this promised salvation, then what is there more to hope for? Thus, if we already have attained our salvation in this present time, then what is there left to hope about? He said that "we are *SAVED BY HOPE:* but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for"(Romans 8:25)? He added, "But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it"(v.26). If complete salvation, which Paul said that believers will only receive when the day of redemption of the purchased possession --or the resurrection comes (Ephesians 1:14) has already been obtained and completed in the believers; does that mean that the resurrection has already taken place? And were the dead in Christ had already been risen to life? Think about that
First pray, then ask the Holy Spirit for discernment, then read Romans 11:20-22, 1 John 5:16,17, 2 Peter 2:20, James 5:20, Hebrews 3:14, Jude 5, 1 Timothy 4:1,2, and Matthew 24:13. It most certainly is possible for a Christian to 'walk/fall away' from their faith. Apostacy (break apart/turn away), on the part of the believer, is definitely present in God's Word.

Thanks for the video but I need further explanation regarding “Revelation 3:5. He who overcomes… I will never blot out his name from the book of life.”
What then will He do for those who dont overcome?
they will go thru the tribulation instead of being raptured away into heaven. so the deliberately disobedient will go thru the tribulation horror era in which 1/3 of all mankind will perish in war, famine, pestilence, etc. as the bk of revelation states. if they continue to be disobedient during the tribulation, they will b sent to hell when Christ comes to earth to destroy the disobedient unbelievers and redeem the pple who become obedient christians DURING the tribulation, to join the previously obedient christians already in Heaven.
those are apostates, in the book of Hebrews, they are the ones who continued sinning after being saved by grace, they never truly repented of their sins. in the book of 1 John, those who never overcame went out since they weren't for us, if they were ours they would be with us. This verse is an encouragement for true walk with Christ in the face of tribulations. Those who didn't overcome it means they went away and hence they didn't belong to the fold from the start. Compare this with the parables of the fisher, when threw his net in the sea he caught many fish but when he removed the net many fish went back to the sea remaining with little. The fish that went back to the sea represents the group that never overcame, since they never entered into fishermans boat. Their names weren't in the the book of life from the start. We don't win by our struggles, we do it by the power of God working within us, the Lord knows who are His.
According to Galatians 3:26 to 29, it talks about those who were baptised into Christ and being one in Christ Jesus. So someone who has faith in Jesus, has repented and then been baptised is IN Christ. Romans chapter 6 tells us that those who were baptised into Christ Jesus were baptised into his death, the old self was crucified with Christ and therefore (verse 7) has been freed from sin. In verse 11 we are to count ourselves dead to sin. This doesn't mean we will never sin again but that we lose the desire to sin - in 1 John 2:1 it says 'But if anybody does sin...' and John uses the word IF instead of the word WHEN because we shouldn't expect or want to sin. In John chapter 15 and verse 2 it tells us that Father God cuts off every branch in Christ that bears no fruit - this is someone who is born again but through disobedience does not bear fruit. And in verse 6 we must remain in Christ otherwise we will be thrown away and burned. So if someone continues in sin then maybe their baptism wasn't a burial, so they're not born again. Matthew chapters 24 and 25 give further passages relating to believers going to hell. The false doctrine of once saved always saved is leading many people to believe their salvation is eternally secure when they may be in danger of the fire of hell.
No it says IF they sin they have an advocate. Try again.
The Bible can literally be an iq test because of how much people like you twist things. Shows how they can’t analyze information correctly.
@@alil6547 didn’t I use the word IF? Anyone who is born again should not continue in wilful sin
@@YOBBOJOBBO66 what do you mean by willfully sin. Because born again people willfully sin. It’s not the same thing as when Hebrews uses the words “willfully sin” which applies to unsaved people rejecting the Gospel. They don’t lose their salvation, John 15 doesn’t say that, and you twisted 1 John too. It’s impossible to not sin while still having the sinful nature. There has been no Christian after being saved that was perfect. Just because John used the word if, or whatever he used was translated to if, doesn’t mean that it is possible to be perfect on this side of life.
@@alil6547 The NIV says of Hebrews 10:26 ‘If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth…’. Hebrews was written to believers, so the context of ‘we’ in v26 relates to believers not unbelievers. In Galatians 2:11-12 it talks about a circumcision that is done in us by Christ at baptism, putting off the body of the flesh. Believers who have repented, and been baptised as a burial of the old life should have no desire to sin, let alone sin wilfully. That doesn’t mean we can’t trip up, which is what 1 John talks about. We should consider ourselves dead to sin (Romans 6). Both of these passages (Colossians and Romans) talk about the mighty work done at baptism in breaking the desire for sin.
John 15 is talking about people that are IN the vine, the vine is Christ, so it is people who are born again. Perhaps you could let go of any preconceived ideas / theology and read and believe what the bible actually says, rather than twisting scripture? OSAS is so destructive because it allows people to live how they want because they have their ‘ticket to heaven’. Jesus came to save us from our sins.
Yes, a Christian can give up their salvation. The Bible warns many times over about the dangers of apostasy. Those who ignore this, do so at their own peril, those who teach that you cannot give up your salvation are just assisting the devil in filling hell.
Nop apostasy comes when you openly reject Christ after having deep experience of Him and of Heavenly gifts. it's an unforgivable sin just like Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, according to the book of Hebrews, but very few can get to commit this sin of apostasy, since from the start very few know Him well. This is what Jesus condemned Pharisees in John 9, that since they were not blind(i. e they they were well versed in spiritual matters and knew that Jesus was the Son of God but rejected Him) they have no excuse for sin.
Even Apostle Paul himself considered himself as an apostle born out of time, since he had no direct contact with Jesus. So not many can get to this point.
Remember we are not the one's who sustain salvation, Its God Himself through His power. The Bible says that "I'm confident that he who started the good work in me shall bring it to completion". Hallelujah.
@@SaintNjuguna If only what you say were Biblical. The Holy Spirit tells us that apostasy can and does happen to believers. You don't have to believe that it does, but I prefer to believe what the actual Word of God says, not your interpretation of it.
Those who give up were never saved to begin with. The pastor is absolutely right what he said in the video, you really need to study your Bible.
@@timjones6209 No, he's not correct. Sorry to have to tell you that but saying so just denies free will and also contradicts the Holy Spirit.
@@pipkinrahl7264 All I can tell you is once you are saved you are sealed! God doesn't save someone then un save them, come on hi is God he knows what he is doing! If one walks away, he was never saved to begin with!
Brother i am normally with you but are you saying that a name can be written or blotted out of the tree of life?
Hm...there is no way on our own effort and works be able to get our name in the book of life. It is given as a free gift the moment we accepted Jesus as our savior. Since we did not earn it, we also do not have the power to throw it away.
but we can throw it away by being deliberately disobedient in a consistent manner even after we get saved initially. its called backslidden.
@@Lauren-vd4qe When Adam sinned and caused everyone to be born a sinner, no one is able to throw the sinner status away by behaving and doing good. So in the same way when we are born again in the spirit and made righteous, we are also unable to throw our righteous status away by sinning. Do you know why Christian sin even after being born again? It is because our spirit is righteous and sinless but we are still in our old sinful body. But God does not count all of our sins against us because Jesus has already paid for the sins of our entire life (past, present and future).
Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.
Moses asked God to remove him from The Book of Life, with: "Yet now, if You will forgive their sin-but if not, I pray, blot me out of Your book which You have written.” Exodus 32v32 . This is where we see Moses reflecting the Agape he learned from God. "God is Agape" 1st John 4v8. "But God demonstrates His own love (Agape) toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8.
So does this mean non-believers are also attached to the tree of life (or perhaps meaning )the book of life?
1. How many number of versions of Bibles have been created till date ??
2. Can someone post reference Link about different versions of Bibles.
3. Can someone list combos of
Christian denomination - Bible version
Jesus says that our name can be blotted out. The Baptist denomination says it cant. I'll take Jesus' teaching on this.
What is the meaning of Hebrews 6:4-6?
My name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life and the ink that God used is the blood of Jesus
"...no one can snatch them out of my hand..." Does not mean you cannot have the free will to leave His hand. Thoughts?
How does the book of Enoch align with no modification of the Bible? Taken from the word? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
The book of Enoch is not part of the Bible
But if one denies Christ after they were "saved"?
I have sinned and backslidden so much. I need help and still don't understand. Please help me
Hebrews chapter 6 talks about Jewish converts that that chose to reject what Jesus did on the cross in favor of going back under the law . They chose to depart from the faith and could not be saved twice . It's clear . You can choose to leave the faith and be lost because you still have free moral agency .
I don’t agree. Jesus said the way to heaven is a small and narrow gate, he told us to ‘strive’ to enter through the narrow gate, and that few find it. STRIVE Meaning it is not so easy. he also said not everyone who says Lord Lord will enter the kingdom. He also said he that endures to the end shall be saved..
The reason why the way to heaven is small and narrow is because many people don't make Jesus there foundation. Many people think there works saved them. (Matthew 7:22)(Ephesians 2:8-9). So they fall away. Many people also have hardened hearts and worldly desires they don't get rid of.(Matthew 13:1-9) and some think they can come into the faith live worldy (revalations 3:16). But for us in Christ we cannot live in sin anymore because we have the seed of god and are slaves to rightousness. (1 John 3:9) (Roman 6:15-18). But for those who have fallen "they went out from us but they were never of us" (1 John 2:19). "These people honor me with there lips but there hearts are far from me" (Matthew 15:8). But what about scriptures saying enduring till the end?. These scriptures brings condemnation to the wicked and brings decipline and the fear of the lord to the rightous. But always remember. "He who begins a good work in you will finish till the day of Jesus Christ" (Philippians 1:6).
@@mr.boboman5701 Mr boboman ........... Question ---- "Is following Jesus Christ by the keeping of His commands "Works" in your opinion? Is loving God with all your heart and having the passion and the desire to live in His will by the keeping of His commands ---- trying to earn one's way to Heaven???
@@areyoumarrieddotwordpressd3631 its great to try to keep his commands, but if you think thats what saves you and not faith alone in Christ and his work on the cross, if you think you
keeping his commands makes you deserving of heaven then you believe in works salvation and not by grace through faith alone in Christ. dont mix the two.
that because most ppl believe that their works makes them deserving of heaven. not just most christians but all false religions teach salvation by works. but not the bible. thats wy the way is narrow.
@@r.a1278 but faith without works is what?… you can have all the faith in the world but have works of unrighteousness and unholiness and that will be a problem..
Sir, quick point: “…sow…” in the Bible where you cited it is pronounced like the letters, “s-o-u” in the direction, “South.” You pronounced it as “s-e-w” like in the song from “The Sound of Music: “Do - a deer (doe), a female deer; Re (ray), a drop of golden sun, …. So (sew), a needle pulling thread…”. Just my two cents. 😏
no eternal security
To me when it comes about questions like this and about losing salvation just trust in Jesus no matter what trust in Jesus no matter what the situation looks like no matter what the circumstances remember Jesus is God he lives outside of time he has seen the ending from the beginning and he is also faithful trust him when I miss it when I sin I trust what he did on the cross with sufficient to wash my sins away all the past all the present and all the future I know when the devil attacks me he's going to come at me two main ways he's going to come at me against my relationship with God and my identity in God when I miss it he's going to make me feel that God doesn't love me anymore or at least he's going to try to then he's going to try to tell me you think you're a child of God by doing what you do I would much rather listen to God because what he did what Jesus did on the cross was sufficient to save me and all of mankind that trusted him
Shouldn't the text read for those who were never a part of me rather than those who do not remain in me?
The text in the parable of the sower also reads this way (ie: those who immediately "receive" the word of God with joy, but fall away due to persecution or tribulation.).
What osas does is it does away with freewill, and the fear of the Lord! The parable of the sower shows that some received the word of God with joy, and because of other things they fell away. The scripture you used in 2 Peter, before it talks about a dog returning to its vomit, it says they were once in Christ.
2 Peter 2:20 For if (after they have escaped the pollutions of the world) through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, (they are again entangled therein, and overcome), the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
21 For it had been better for them (not to have known the way of righteousness), than, after (they have known it), (to turn from)the holy commandment delivered unto them.
22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
The apostle Paul himself said that if he does not keep his body under subjection, that after preaching to others, he himself could be rejected! Was Paul not a true born again believer? He understood the fear of the Lord, and the fact he had freewill, and that faith was not a one time prayer of confession in Christ, but a daily overcoming of the will of the flesh, and submission to the will of the Spirit of God! Choosing to carry your cross daily, and daily follow Christ! OSAS deceives young believers and those who follow teachers without seeking in the scriptures day and night Gods truth of his word, into thinking they have been forgivin for sins past, present, and future at the time they first believed and ask Jesus into their lives. When the Bible declares that we are only forgiven of sins past, when we come to believe the gospel.(Romans 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins (that are past), through the forbearance of God). Not understanding that Jesus has now become our HighPriest that we now, if we mess up, because of the fact we are still in a flesh and blood body, that we can go to Jesus our High Priest and if we sin, we can confess our sin, and receive forgiveness. Grace is not a license to continue sinning! If we continue to willfully sin, we will reap death! In Proverbs says, that those who confess, and forsake their sin, will have mercy! OSAS doctrine says as long as you ment it when you ask Jesus into your heart. You are forgivin no matter what you choose to do! If you murder, rape, do drugs, anything, it’s all under the blood of Christ! This a damnable heresy! John said, Do not be deceived brethren, those who do righteousness are righteous. Those who commit sin are of the devil! That is why wisdom is the fear of the Lord! For by the fear of the Lord, men depart from evil! Jesus told us over and over we must endure unto the end! We must not turn back! And he told us by his anointed Apostles warning after warning (talking to believers) that we have to finish the race, we have to continue in the doctrine and grace of God, we have to forsake the world, and loose our lives to find our lives! We have to overcome! Lots wife while being saved out of Sodom, turned back, and she lost her salvation! King Saul who was anointed by God, and had the Holy Spirit, because of disobedience was then rejected by God, who took the Holy Spirit from him, and replaced the Spirit of God with an evil spirit! His end was death! Ananias,and Sapphira l who were born again believers, lied to Peter ( lied to the Holy Spirit) because they gave into temptation, and was not walking in the fear of the Lord, and they dropped dead at Peters feet! And what happened afterwards? All the people feared! God knows the beginning to the end, and all things in between. He knows who will endure unto the end, but that does not mean, he has taking away our freewill, and we don’t need to fear, and be careful to continue and obey his word! He chastises us, so we will turn away from doing evil, and do that which is right in his sight, And fear his name! We we’re graphed into the vine. We are told to not be puffed, but to fear! Because if we do not produce fruit, we will be cut off and thrown in the fire. You might be producing now, but that don’t mean the fruit can’t wither and die, if you do not continue in the faith! Romans 11:22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, (if thou continue)in his goodness: (otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.) Your salvation is secure only if you continue in the faith unto the end! Only if you finish your coarse! Does that mean a person who just comes to believe the gospel, isn’t saved and will enter the kingdom if he dies a short time after, like the thief on the cross? No! Nothing is required of a baby! But for those of us who live out our days, as we are taught by Gods Spirit, we are required to walk it the truth that God has revealed to us faith to faith, glory to glory! For it declares in James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. Therefore, do not just think you have no part in your salvation, because you have freewill, and that is the reason, we are told, how will we escape if we neglect such a great salvation! Gods covenant is a contract between two parties. Between God and mankind. God will not break his side of that contract, but we have freewill, and can choose to walk away from it. When God gives the free gift of grace, once excepted, that gift now belongs to whom it was given, to cherish and use as it was given to use, or to waste and throw away! God knows who will endure and obey Jesus word unto the end. But we do not know what trials we will be tested in tomorrow,next week, or next year! Therefore fear God! And don’t think you can’t fall away! 1 Cor. 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. Please read the whole chapter of 1 Cor. 10. Because it warns us that very much if we do not take heed to be doers of what we confess, and continue in the faith, if we turn back to Egypt, we can be overthrown in the wilderness and can be rejected to enter in! In Christ’s Love, I warn you all! Fear the Lord! And obey his word from the heart! Endure unto the end! Because OSAS is a last days damnable heresy!
I'm feeling the explanation. Seems sound.
I still wonder at all the things Jesus said about the vine and branches... and branch that doesn't bear fruit get's chopped and burned. Or the virgins with the oil...
I guess it all comes down to being a true believer. That verse that James wrote about leading someone (among your Christian peoples) back from sin, who "wanders from the truth," though. That gives me pause. Seems like we need to be found keeping in repentance and walking a narrow path if we believe... I wouldn't feel safe living in willful sin.
James 5:19-20 NET
[19] My brothers and sisters, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back, [20] he should know that the one who turns a sinner back from his wandering path will save that person's soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
I'm Greek Orthodox,
I'm in agreement on the tree of life!
We can still be removed from the whatever of life
If they thought they were true believers, then their names were never entered into the book of life, so how was it that “their” names could be blotted out, if it was never in the book of life? Honest question here.
Thank you for that great message. I just thank God that burning or martyring the saints for a belief that doesn't agree with theirs no longer happens. Satan is 100% active causing dissent & separation in the Church just because of doctrine that have nothing to do with the gospel of salvation. Must be pride
nobody can snach them from his hand ✋. but they can loose themselves away. otherwise, why pray and be in constant prayer. you are already saved? he that overcomes. many like you will not overcome. you are so depended on the false doctrine of once saved always saved. you are leading many in this false doctrine.
Praying & being constant in prayer are a part of the relationship with God. It's a bit like asking, after you get married, why do loving things for your spouse? Because you are one with this person, not because you fear they will divorce you.
No
That is interesting, because I thought you need to be born again for your name to be written in the book of life, and that would mean true believers, correct?
Brother I kept failing God again and again 😭
Why then two different preachers say yes you can be blot out of the book of life and the other say no so what is the truth❓❓ I love Jesus but sin keeps coming in and I feel defeated! Vwey confused🥺🥺🥺
Would it stand to reason then, using the book of life understanding, if they were not true believers their names would not even be in said book? Clearly we understyand and believe God knows everyone's heart and therefor would not eroneously enter someone's name into the book.
I believe once saved always saved and that my name is oermanently etched wherever (book, tree) and that nobody who is not saved can have their name there. Just my opinion.
You would be 100% correct and one of the few people who aren’t dumb.
Jesus hinted that our name can be blotted out of the Book of Life.
Those people who twist God's word are your very selves. They don't mention the scriptures that warn believers about willful sin and apostasy. We as believers trust in Christ's finished work, but we're told also to Follow and continue in the faith. Take up your cross daily. Apostasy is possible to any believer, there is no sinless perfection by faith only so you must be vigilant and not fall into temptation, the wages of sin is death; that still applies to believers. Don't think you can just "believe" and go to heaven if you continue in sin. God will forgive you if you ask, but unrepentant habitual sin, God will blot you out of the book yes.
The more I hear opinions on scripture - especially regarding the secret and separate "rapture" of believers, which those who believe in this say Christ can come at any time (completely disregarding 2 Thess 2:1-4 regarding WHAT must take place first BEFORE Christ can return or 2 Thess 1:6-8 stating He will come to give us rest WHEN Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God {in other words He comes to get those that are His at the same time He unleashes His Wrath and at the LAST TRUMPET}) makes me realize that the narrow path and wide path to destruction is glaringly obvious.
God gave satan a lot of power and knows he's able to mix some truth with lies (appears as an angel of light). People are being caressed into believing things that will give them false hope.
@@ConcernedONETOO Well said ❤️
What sin can ONLY Christians commit?
Isnt there the unforgiveable sin.....the rejection and condemnation of the Holy Spirit?
That is to go to one's grave denying that Jesus is the Holy and Righteous One, to say that Jesus performed miracles by the power of satan.
No true born again Christian believes that.
Why such old videos that ask so many questions.
Did Erasmus translate from the corrupted Alexandrian texts?
My understanding is that everyone is written in The Book if Life initially, for it is God's Will that "none should perish..." Their names are blotted out only when they have rejected Christ as their Savior...
That would match historians, who say that in Jesus' day, every citizen had their name written on their city's scroll. When they died, their name was blotted out of that scroll. Jesus is saying, He will never blot out the name of those who follow Him from the Heavenly city scroll, even after their body dies.
That statement about everyone is written in the Book of Life is garbage!!
Revelation 13:8 refers to everyone whose names have not been written before the foundation of the world in The Book of Life. Are you looking up revelation 13:8
Heres a question i have. If i accept Jesus As my Lord and Savior and sin again after that what will happend?
The truth of the matter is that everyone will go and sin again after this. The sin is not truly the problem. It is where you put your faith. Most people can understand it this way, IF you put your faith in Christ, THEN you receive salvation, if you then put your faith somewhere else, you walk away from that salvation. It's not that you might sin, because you WILL sin. It's where you choose to put your faith. The Bible talks in 1 Timothy 4:1 about those who depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils. It is talking about those who walk away from their salvation. This is a concept that most Christians do not want to acknowledge at all, not even in the slightest. They cling to the false doctrine of "Once Saved, Always Saved". The only thing this doctrine does is give people license to sin. God knows your heart, he knows that you will sin, he also knows if you are putting your faith in him or something else. The danger of the "OSAS" doctrine is that it allows Christians to inch away from God with each sin, and before long, we see that they have moved their faith from Christ, to whatever, be it the sin of the occults or of pride or so on. So what happens if you sin after being saved, nothing, you repent and move on, trying not to commit that sin again. What happens if you continue to sin after being saved and live in unrepentant sin, that is the folly of "OSAS" to which those who have been deceived into believing that doctrine will say "you were never 'truly' saved to begin with. Salvation is a life long process, which is why we are told to keep the faith, endure until the end.

you will be chastised "punished in this life" just like any father chastises his children, but you can never stop being his son (loose your salvation)
Hebrews 12:6
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
Romans 8:38-39
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
John 10:28
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
100%
So i can live like the devil and never lose the Holy Spirit here on earth and never be erasted from The Book of Life?? The bible says ONE thing and then the spirits of confusion says another, just like the enemy did to Eve. "God said that but He meant this....did God truly say...?"
I think the bible is very clear on this topic! Your name CAN be erasted. It isnt once saved always saved. In Luke 13:5 Jesus tells a man that FEW will make it to heaven. Many will try, but nor make it. Most will be lost for eternity.
If this guy does not repent he will have his name blotted from the LAMB'S book of life.
Yahshua - you know Him as Jesus - was born to a virgin, turned water to wine, taught, healed the sick, raised the dead, casted out demons, walked on water, calmed the storm, and fed a crowd of thousands with a few fish and a few loaves of bread, among many other things. He was killed on the cross as payment for the sins of all mankind, three days later He rose from the dead. Forty days later He ascended into heaven where He sits at the right hand of the Father. He is returning very soon, but before He does, Satan, the devil, is coming to pretend to be Jesus/God. Satan is an angel, and he will have certain supernatural powers with which to try to fool everyone. He will, for example, be able to make fire come down from heaven in the sight of men. He will only be on earth a short time before the real King of Kings, Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, returns. When the real Jesus comes we will all be transformed into our spiritual bodies at the same moment. Jesus came in the flesh to offer forgiveness of sins and eternal life to anyone who believes and calls on His precious name!
if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. - Romans 10:9
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat. But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste? For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor. When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me. For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always. For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial. Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her. - Matthew 26:6-13
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

Ask the Lord to bless your vial of oil in Jesus name. Anoint yourself with the oil by placing a dab of oil on tip of finger and touch it to your forehead, and ask the Lord to bless you/heal you. Place a dab of oil on your finger and anoint the door posts and order all negativity and evil out of the house, and order that nothing negative or evil can enter into your home including piggybacking on a person entering, order it to be so in the name of Jesus. Anoint all potential entrances to your home. To anoint the sick, place oil on tip of finger and touch it to the head of the sick and say a prayer of healing over them in Jesus name. See James Chapter 5:14-15.
In a way this is a hilariously funny question. #1) to ask t implies immediately your looking to see how much you can get away with. (2) God, makes the rules and can change them.
God doesn’t change though
Blotted out as the bible says?
Do you believe the Bible or not?
Forget theology and manmade doctrines for a second.
What does the bible say in context.
Every name is in the book of life until the sin. If they remain in sin is it blotted out. If born again it remains.
No. The elect are in the book of life from the beginning, not those destined for hell. There is no such thing as being erased from the book of life did you watch the video? That’s like saying the unbelievers who will be cut off from Christ (John 15) were in Christ to begin with. They weren’t. They professed to be Christians but weren’t ever saved.
@@alil6547 are you a calvinist?
@@alil6547 are you a calvinist? you have to be in to be blotted out.
@@donhaddix3770 yes I’m a calvinist. So your objection is you have to be in to be blotted out. Just like you have to be in a room to get out of a room. But that logic is not the same when it comes to the text. So the unbelievers who were cut off from Christ in John 15, were they a part of Christ? No. They didn’t lose their salvation, it looked like they were saved, but they weren’t to begin with.
Don Haddix
Obviously you don’t understand Grace
Why is their name in the book of life? Thank you.
@Carpets by Jonah Thank you. I thought about this but not this profound. Do you know specific verses that support this? Thank you so much. God bless!!
I searched, but this is what I found to point somewhere.
... whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world ... Revelation 17:8 AKJV
@Carpets by Jonah Thank you for your time and care. I have yet to read it more carefully etc., but I can answer I'm saved, sealed, justified, etc. I believe 1 Corinthians 15 AKJV. I have repented, believed in God’s work. I have the free gift. I have eternal life all thanks to God Almighty!! Hallelujah, amen!!
I love souls too. God and his word helps. Living Waters and others have been very useful to me. Only God is perfect.
@Carpets by Jonah Amen, I'm eternally saved, since sealed, born again forever.
My answer is yes.
Thank you for caring. I read the other scriptures, and I love them. Thank you so much. His Word doesn't age. I definitely study and try to rightly divide the word of truth. Thank you so much, much love and blessings in Christ Jesus, amen!!
They were obeying God's will , later they disobeyed Him ,this sin made their names to be erased from the book of life.
Excellent! 😉
I can’t even get credit for a tv 🤣 it’s no way my names in there. My luck will be when I die it will change to credit scoring. Angel will say let me just put your name though this computer it’s just a technical thing don’t worry 😊 then it’s oh..😮 🤦🏻♂️🤣
5:54 i sinned after accepting Jesus as my lord and savior what will happend?
The truth of the matter is that everyone will go and sin again after this. The sin is not truly the problem. It is where you put your faith. Most people can understand it this way, IF you put your faith in Christ, THEN you receive salvation, if you then put your faith somewhere else, you walk away from that salvation. It's not that you might sin, because you WILL sin. It's where you choose to put your faith. The Bible talks in 1 Timothy 4:1 about those who depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils. It is talking about those who walk away from their salvation. This is a concept that most Christians do not want to acknowledge at all, not even in the slightest. They cling to the false doctrine of "Once Saved, Always Saved". The only thing this doctrine does is give people license to sin. God knows your heart, he knows that you will sin, he also knows if you are putting your faith in him or something else. The danger of the "OSAS" doctrine is that it allows Christians to inch away from God with each sin, and before long, we see that they have moved their faith from Christ, to whatever, be it the sin of the occults or of pride or so on. So what happens if you sin after being saved, nothing, you repent and move on, trying not to commit that sin again. What happens if you continue to sin after being saved and live in unrepentant sin, that is the folly of "OSAS" to which those who have been deceived into believing that doctrine will say "you were never 'truly' saved to begin with. Salvation is a life long process, which is why we are told to keep the faith, endure until the end. I gave this same reply to someone else, I hope it helps you as well.
If you sin, u repent and move forward. Dont be stuck in guilt and worries if u lost your salvation. U r not saved by your good works and u will not keep that salvation by good works either. Acknowledge always that Jesus is the one to pay your prize and the fact you feel guilty and sad that you sinned against God means you truly repented and you want to follow God. It means you have the Holy Spirit in you which you are bought with. Satan wants to make you feel guilty and ashamed when you sin. Dont forget its not about what we did but what Jesus has done and he has payed all the prize so we gave eternal life.
@@stefan00017 You are correct, as long as we keep our faith in Christ. Salvation comes with an obligation, that condition that follows every mention of salvation in the Bible, faith. If we take our faith, after putting it in Christ, and then put it elsewhere, we walk away from our salvation.
@@pipkinrahl7264
Those who truly understand what Jesus has done for them, it's impossible for them to put faith in something esle. We receive the witness in us that confirms it,and with that witness, no matter what happenes, we cant go away from Him
@@stefan00017 No, it's not impossible, if it was, there would be no reason for the warnings in the Bible about apostasy. You are very mistaken. Like many others, you seek all the benefits of being a Christian, without the responsibility.
Your not written in the book of life when you believe, your written in it from the foundation of the world. Not everyone has been called only a remnant. Those remnant will come to the knowledge of Jesus Christ, Romans 8. When they believe They'll be added to the Church baptized by the spirit as the Lord wills and adds to his church Acts 2:47. And they that are added are saved by grace unto good works Christ ordained Ephesians 2:8-10. And remain saved on the provision they stay faithful 1 Corinthians 15:2 John 14:15. Then enduring unto the end comes salvation.

This man speaks wisdom
Are Jehovah witnesses believers?
This dude got this one wrong. Study to show yourself approved unto GOD a workman rightly dividing the Word of GOD.
Studied ✅
Approved unto God ✅
Rightly dividing the Word of God ✅
Video 100 percent accurate ✅
Some guy in the comments typing baseless lies ✅
I normally like this channel, but this video is full of poor arguments. Now if you hold to eternal security, feel free to do so. We are just to be honest there are passages talking about the security of Christians and passages that say Christians can be lost. We have to deal with both.
The being unable to snatch away is something that happens after this world passes.
So the "Christians" who wrote the "Queen James Bible" are going to heaven? The slave owners who compiled the "Slave Bible" are going to heaven? Make it make sense!
Exodus 32:33 and Jesus replied to Moses, whoever sinned against me I will erase him from my book.
You are lying if you say that a believer is in the book of life. God did not give man the power to see the future.
@@thecringecaretaker8548 Who is the Lord?
Shouldn't one want TO know the Truth about which messiah stands at the center of one(s) beliefs:
...Considering the anointed 'ONE' with all 'power and authority' IS coming TO judge His own,
...IN and OF the Kingdom's 'Justice and Right-ruling', accordingly?
Isn't it important to know and realize what He said regarding His sovereign Father's 'Saving Will' Testimony,
...as well as what His standards of judgment will be for His chosen 'body' of loyal assembly SetApart one(s)?
sWORD Spirit and Truth IS my ministry IN discernment and testing.
Yahu'Ah Yahu'Sha= There IS power and authority IN His proper NAME-sake!!!
Stop the judeo/christian man-made nonsense!!!
Praise TO the Most High Ab Yahu'Ah for another day and night TO meditate and spend with Him IN sWORD Spirit and Truth!!!
Morning by morning womb, baby!!!
Absolutely do you not read the Bible if you take away or add to the word your name will be taken out of the book of life ding ding dong what are we win Johnny
The "Body of Christ" is not in the "Book of Life," they are the saved in the "prophetic program" (see Exodus 32:33). You must "rightly divide" the Word of GOD. in order not mixed the Old and New Testament. GOD bless
.... the Word of God is a consistent Gospel
Here is the answer as long as you truly believe, and Jesus is your lord and savior you have eternal life period.
If you stop or don't believe, then you do not have eternal life.. we are saved by grace through faith, not if ourselves so no one can boast.
God has decided that we must believe, and only then is the blood atonement applied.
Again always read the Bible in context, is it talking about the apostles specifically or everyone.
Only God knows who is saved or not, because he sees the heart, we only see the fruit.
So just because someone falls away from the faith, does not mean they were never saved.
The Bible dies not say God forces us to become saved or stay saved unless you believe in Calvinism where he has already damed people to hell or blessed them to heaven before they were born, before the cross.
Jesus says people will fall away from the faith that's gospel, it is the remaining Christians job to let them know they can be restored if they repent and stop denying Jesus Christ.
Again let the scriptures not theology speak..
Absolutely it’s possible to lose salvation. We must endure to the end(death) to be saved. You can show god you don’t want salvation anymore like Judas Iscariot did.
Salvation is not yet completed because Jesus not yet died on the cross when Judas betray tje Lord
You’re right! YOU can lose your salvation………………..
But I won’t lose mine!
@@jesuschristmyforever3333 eternal security is one of the biggest lies the devil ever told and will be responsible for sending millions to hell.
How do you know judas didn't go to heaven??
Judas was never saved dummy
I guess I'm doomed then. My friends did bad things they burned the Bible when they were younger. We're into black metal evil music. As was I. I don't know why I listen to that crap. I hate it now. I attacked the Bible with an axe.. even after I had been saved years later.. I Repented. I pray seek the word but I fear I've been removed. I wasn't baptised either.. like I was supposed to be a week after I accepted Jesús as my lord and Savior I cried asked for forgiveness. After my incident. Felt a burning in my chest. I even told them about it. One got saved Repented others laughed at religion.. felt so alone cold that day.
I tell other believers what happened they said God forgives but I feel guilty time to time. When I pray I get attacked. Hear hissing in my ear when I'm asleep demons in my dreams. Some nights can't rest.
@@danielrobinson3079 hey, it’s gonna be ok. I know you’ve probably heard that a lot but it will be ok. Don’t you think for a second God doesn’t love you and He forgot you, no. He sees you and is with you wherever you go. I’m not too spiritually mature so I can’t give *good* advice, but I would say to see your pastor about it. I know it’s scary and I’ve had demons in my dreams too, I’m only 14. They scared me to the point where I would be scared in the dark (2-3 weeks). I started to sleep with my Bible and it made me feel calm. Remember God’s promises and even though you might feel like He’s far from you He’s close. He has loved you with an everlasting love and will not let you go. Hold on to Him and keep holding on tight. Again, I would say to see your pastor about it. If you’re doing anything demonic it needs to stop, such as yoga, watching scary movies, etc. Examine what you’ve been doing and see if it is demonic or not.
I’ll be praying for you and for your strength to not fail, keep running the race brother. God will help you, remember that and His promises.
@@danielrobinson3079 to add on, those demons’ mission is to separate you from God, don’t let them do that
Revelation is future, that is the "Tribulation Day". All Christians are in heaven already. Those that are left behind, Their salvation includes works, donot accept the mark of the beast (666) .
they are in the world but not of the world, they have crossed over from death to eternal life. Hallelujah
