Nobody said they are believers....they WERE believers once hence the warning to believers against falling away into unbelief.And they are right on that point.
And if you bother to look at the context you will see that those who fall away in every passage are designated as unbelievers. The error is yours.
The most nonsensical claim of OSAS heretics is that an apostate was NEVER a believer, those who depart from the truth were NEVER in it.
Holy Spirit is clear on this,buthow would you know!No-one teaches that except the L.O.S.T.
'Depart from me you workers of iniquity, for I never knew you'The only insecurity belongs to those who do not actually trust in Christ's death as much as they profess to. It is ironic, no?
Www.google.comCalvinists do not teach this. This is a construct of your own mind, a false argument to support your view.
I trust you know this is not a planet but a search engine?
Do they offer comprehension classes here?No idea what you are talking about. But this is what happens when someone creates false arguments not even endorsed by those of opposing view.
They should @Darrell C, they should
Sanctification to you is being made holy, and Jesus blood made him holy.Just as you believe the Word of God denies sanctification in regards to the Person of Christ.
That perfectly describes OSAS. Try in between your rants to confront what I said with scriptures.Your doctrine is not derived from Scripture, but simply reflects what you want to believe. You try to conform Scripture to your own beliefs. You are not alone in this Vooks.
Did you talk of spiritual blindness? That's irony incarnate!Where is the examination? There is no examination here.
Not as much as you, you claim the blameless lamb of God was filthy and in dire need of his own blood to make him holyYou scoff at the very statement of the Writer, thus...you scoff at God.
Because he is not an idiot to warn against an improbable outcomeHow hard is it to understand that the Writer, after giving grave warning about rejecting Christ, states we are not like them?
Why is he encouraging them not to cast away their faith if this is impossible seeing they are 'perfected forever'? Was he smoking weed @Darrell C?Who are those that do draw back unto perdition? And if there is a drawing back unto perdition and a definite "believing to the saving of the soul," when would we expect that this believing to the saving of the soul takes place?
You know man made traditions are idols, it's about time you discarded them and turned to the living God @Darrell C.So, I exhort you to learn how to examine Scripture, rather than broadcasting your opinions in a public forum which, hopefully, you will one day look back on and regret.
Yes He does. So, why did the author encourage them not to cast away their faith? We're the subjects 'saved eternally'?But, being ignorant of a very simple truth, that Christ does indeed save eternally, is not something that demands lack of relationship with Him.
It's no work based but faith based. Without faith it is impossible to please God. You need your faith throughout, cast it away and you are a castaway. There are millions like you deluded that sin don't matter nothing because all their probable sins were forgiven. They will sleepwalk to hell @Darrell CYou are not alone in having a works-based mentality, many, if not most do.
One day scales you will esteem the Word of God above your pet doctrines and light will break throughOne day you might get to the place where you acknowledge that Christ actually saved you, but it may not sink in until you stand before Him.
I have fed you with the Truth, can't force you to,take it. Take some time off and think through what you just wrote; Jesus so badly needed his own blood to cleanse him...But the choice is yours. It is just a matter of being obedient to the command to study.
God bless.
