Featured What Do These Passages Teach?

These are tares growing among the wheat in the same good earth, under the same sun and rain; that is, growing up in the company of the church, receiving the ordinances and teachings and even partaking in the operations. Judas cast out devils in Jesus's name. But they never were wheat. They eventually depart, despising the grace that planted them there with every advantage, like the Jews, who, if salvation were by the virtue of flesh and blood, should be pouring through heaven's gates. But few find the Way.

Hebrews was written to a Jewish audience, and so the specific circumstances to which the Apostle was responding, judging by the topics expounded upon in Hebrews, was most likely Jews, who for a time received the preaching of the Gospel, but returned to Judaism, despising the preaching of the Cross.

No one can lose his salvation. 1 John 3:9

 

And?

 

Again, and...?

What's written is written to every man, Christian or not. Anyway. No one can lose his salvation.

 

No, you just don't understand them. They're not about losing salvation.

 

Born anew Christians will not fall away, out of the hand of God. Nothing can separate us. We did not put us into Christ, and we are powerless to put ourselves out of Christ.

Here the fallacy is to think "he was sanctified" refers to be placed in (within) Christ. But instead, all humankind was set apart (sanctified) under the New Covenant in His blood.

 

Not if sanctification precedes the faith. 1 Peter 1:2, 2 Thessalonians 2:13.

 

1 Corinthians 7:14

 

Yet another "taint so" post. This is all they have folks,

Born anew Christians will not fall away, out of the hand of God. Nothing can separate us. We did not put us into Christ, and we are powerless to put ourselves out of Christ.

Here the fallacy is to think "he was sanctified" refers to be placed in (within) Christ. But instead, all humankind was set apart (sanctified) under the New Covenant in His blood. When Christ laid down His life as a ransom for all, He both purchased (bought) all humankind with His blood, He also placed all humankind under the New Covenant in His blood.

Romans 8:38-39
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1Timothy 2:6
who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time.

2Peter 2:1
But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves.

 

Here SBG pretends I did not address Hebrews 10:26-31 but I did in post #9.

The sin that results in death is to reject Christ, to fail to go "all in" for Christ, and not love God will all our heart, mind and soul.
But if we do go all in (in God's view) then God places us into Christ, and we cannot by sinning, cause ourselves to be separated from God.

 

I explained the meaning of "sanctified" and your "made holy by the blood" is precluded. Once saved, always saved.
