    Once saved always saved?

    The thread is about a doctrine rather than how anybody participating in it imagines life with or without some particular view of themselves.

    Once saved always saved?

    It isn't a parable but a simile with an explanation using familiar imagery. But that was not the point of my post nor is my post accusing any in this forum or elsewhere of wickedness of any kind. The purpose of my post is to show how the Lord teaches and what he teaches about the last judgement...

    Once saved always saved?

    In the last judgement (as described in Matthew 25:31-46) it is the nations that are gathered before the Lord to be judged. They are separated like a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. The setting given in the first two verses (vv 31.32) helps the reader understand that humanity is not...

    Saturday, 12th September 2015 MORNING I have seen his ways, and will heal him. Isa. 57:18 I am the LORD that healeth thee. Exo. 15:26 O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path...

    Once saved always saved?

    I am inclined to think that those who proclaim "once saved always saved" really mean that they feel saved and so want to feel assured that they will in fact be saved. Feeling saved is exactly the problem with the wicked in the last judgement passage from the gospel according to saint Matthew...

    What exactly do folk who use the expression "once saved always saved" mean by the expression and when do they think one is saved?

    What must I do to be saved?

    Normally in addition to the paperwork one must also pass a driving test.

    Because I wanted feedback from you and because your brief post was insufficiently explanatory of your views to allow me to know what you believe and teach.

    What must I do to be saved?

    A man asked saints Paul and Silas "Men, what must I do to be saved?" (Acts 16:30) and the saints replied "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.". The story is instructive, but after they gave him that short answer "they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to...

    Once saved always saved?

    Faith that is able to make one just is faith that results in fidelity to Christ and a life marked by obedience (as much as grace permits and resolute actions provides) to Christ's commandments. Hence the Lord's description of the last Judgement in the gospel according to saint Matthew.Mat...

    Once saved always saved?

    Seems to me that since one is saved when God passes judgement and declares one in grace and in Christ that one cannot face that judgement again and hence one is "always saved" having been "saved by grace" but this all takes place in the judgement (personal judgement or last judgement whichever...
