TRUE BELIEVERS

LOSING YOUR SALVATION

I saw where someone asked, "Can you lose your Salvation?"
I will show Scriptures that will back up the fact that Yes you can lose your Salvation. I will also show you Scriptures that will say No you cannot. Stay with me, and they all will be explained. This is a quite lengthy study, it is a lot of Scriptures, but I like to let The Word explain The Word.

First, we will start with yes, yes you can lose your Salvation.

Hebrews 10:23 Let Us Hold Fast The Profession Of Our Faith Without Wavering; (For He Is Faithful That Promised;)

Hebrews 10:22-23,26-32,35-39 Let Us Draw Near With A True Heart In Full Assurance Of Faith, Having Our Hearts Sprinkled From An Evil Conscience, And Our Bodies Washed With Pure Water. Let Us Hold Fast The Profession Of Our Faith Without Wavering; (For He Is Faithful That Promised;) [26] For If We SIN Wilfully After That We Have Received The Knowledge Of The Truth, There Remaineth No More Sacrifice For SINS, But A Certain Fearful Looking For Of Judgment And Fiery Indignation, Which Shall Devour The Adversaries. He That Despised Moses' Law Died Without Mercy Under Two Or Three Witnesses: Of How Much Sorer Punishment, Suppose Ye, Shall He Be Thought Worthy, Who Hath Trodden Under Foot The Son Of God, And Hath Counted The Blood Of The Covenant, Wherewith He Was Sanctified, An Unholy Thing, And Hath Done Despite Unto The Spirit Of Grace? For We Know Him That Hath Said, Vengeance Belongeth Unto Me, I Will Recompense, Saith The Lord. And Again, The Lord Shall Judge His People. It Is A Fearful Thing To Fall Into The Hands Of The Living God. But Call To Remembrance The Former Days, In Which, After Ye Were Illuminated, Ye Endured A Great Fight Of Afflictions; [35] Cast Not Away Therefore Your Confidence, Which Hath Great Recompence Of Reward. For Ye Have Need Of Patience, That, After Ye Have Done The Will Of God, Ye Might Receive The Promise. For Yet A Little While, And He That Shall Come Will Come, And Will Not Tarry. Now The Just Shall Live By Faith: But If Any Man Draw Back, My Soul Shall Have No Pleasure In Him. But We Are Not Of Them Who Draw Back Unto Perdition; But Of Them, That Believe To The Saving Of The Soul.
SIN: 1 John 3:4 Whosoever Committeth Sin Transgresseth Also The Law: FOR SIN IS THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW.
Romans 14:23 And He That DOUBTETH Is Damned If He Eat, Because He Eateth Not Of Faith: FOR WHATSOEVER IS NOT OF FAITH IS SIN.
Those Scriptures Define "SIN" and "FAITH"
SIN is where you break The LAW.
FAITH is where you Doubt.
SO SINNING WILFULLY, IS WHERE YOU DOUBT JESUS CHRIST, YOU LOSE YOUR FAITH IN HIM AS YOUR SAVIOR. WHEN THAT HAPPENS YOU ARE BACK UNDER THE LAW. YOU HAVE DONE DESPITE TO THE SPIRIT OF GRACE.
DESPITE: a contemptuous act; insult; injury

malice; spite, contempt; scorn.
You Have Thrown The Grace Of GOD, The Sacrifice That He Provided Back At Him, You Have Blasphemed The Holy Spirit.
Remember you are not under The LAW but under Grace. All of our Salvation is Faith In Christ Jesus as Savior.

Romans 6:14 For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The LAW, But Under GRACE.

Ephesians 2:8 For By Grace Are Ye Saved Through FAITH; And THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD:
FAITH ALSO IS THE GIFT OF GOD.

I WILL TELL YOU THOUGH, SALVATION IS A ONE-TIME OCCURRENCE, IF YOU TURN AWAY FROM CHRIST, LOSE FAITH, THEN YOU HAVE NO OTHER WAY TO BE SAVED. WHEN YOU LOSE YOUR FAITH YOU ARE SAYING, THAT YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD. YOU HAVE TRODDEN UNDER YOUR FEET THE BLOOD OF JESUS.

Hebrews 6:4-6,9,11-12,15 For It Is Impossible For Those Who Were Once Enlightened, And Have Tasted Of The Heavenly Gift, And Were Made Partakers Of The Holy Ghost, And Have Tasted The Good Word Of God, And The Powers Of The World To Come, If They Shall Fall Away, To Renew Them Again Unto Repentance; Seeing They Crucify To Themselves The Son Of God Afresh, And Put Him To An Open Shame. [9] But, Beloved, We Are Persuaded Better Things Of You, And Things That Accompany Salvation, Though We Thus Speak. [11] And We Desire That Every One Of You Do Shew The Same Diligence To The Full Assurance Of Hope Unto The End: That Ye Be Not Slothful, But Followers Of Them Who Through Faith And Patience Inherit The Promises. [15] And So, After He Had Patiently Endured, He Obtained The Promise.

Revelation 3:10-12,15-16,18,21 Because Thou Hast Kept The Word Of My Patience, I Also Will Keep Thee From The Hour Of Temptation, Which Shall Come Upon All The World, To Try Them That Dwell Upon The Earth. Behold, I Come Quickly: Hold That Fast Which Thou Hast, That No Man Take Thy Crown. Him That Overcometh Will I Make A Pillar In The Temple Of My God, And He Shall Go No More Out: And I Will Write Upon Him The Name Of My God, And The Name Of The City Of My God, Which Is New Jerusalem, Which Cometh Down Out Of Heaven From My God: And I Will Write Upon Him My New Name. [15] I Know Thy Works, That Thou Art Neither Cold Nor Hot: I Would Thou Wert Cold Or Hot. So Then Because Thou Art Lukewarm, And Neither Cold Nor Hot, I Will Spue Thee Out Of My Mouth. [18] I Counsel Thee To Buy Of Me Gold Tried In The Fire, That Thou Mayest Be Rich; And White Raiment, That Thou Mayest Be Clothed, And That The Shame Of Thy Nakedness Do Not Appear; And Anoint Thine Eyes With Eyesalve, That Thou Mayest See. [21] To Him That Overcometh Will, I Grant To Sit With Me In My Throne, Even As I Also Overcame, And Am Set Down With My Father In His Throne.
*WARNING* BEING LUKEWARM, LITERALLY MAKE JESUS SICK. AFTER ALL, HE HAS DONE FOR US, TO BE LUKEWARM IS AN INSULT TO HIM. HE WILL SPEW YOU OUT OF HIS MOUTH!

Luke 8:5-8,11-15 A Sower Went Out To Sow His Seed: And As He Sowed, Some Fell By The Way Side; And It Was Trodden Down, And The Fowls Of The Air Devoured It. And Some Fell Upon A Rock; And As Soon As It Was Sprung Up, It Withered Away, Because It Lacked Moisture. And Some Fell Among Thorns; And The Thorns Sprang Up With It, And Choked It. And Other Fell On Good Ground, And Sprang Up, And Bare Fruit An Hundredfold. And When He Had Said These Things, He Cried, He That Hath Ears To Hear, Let Him Hear.
[11] Now The Parable Is This: The Seed Is The Word Of God. Those By The Way Side Are They That Hear; Then Cometh The Devil, And Taketh Away The Word Out Of Their Hearts, Lest They Should Believe And Be Saved.  They On The Rock Are They, Which, When They Hear, Receive The Word With Joy; And These Have No Root, Which For A While Believe, And In Time Of Temptation Fall Away. And That Which Fell Among Thorns Are They, Which, When They Have Heard, Go Forth, And Are Choked With Cares And Riches And Pleasures Of This Life, And Bring No Fruit To Perfection. But That On The Good Ground Are They, Which In An Honest And Good Heart, Having Heard The Word, Keep It, And Bring Forth Fruit With Patience.
1, The Word is stolen from some and they don't believe unto Salvation.
2, So many people receive The Word with joy and believe for a while, but temptation comes and they go the way of the world.
3, Some believe and then over time become so bogged down with the cares and riches of this world that they don't Grow Fruit Unto Perfection.
4, Then you have people that take The Word Of Salvation To Heart, and endure until the end.

Now The Scriptures that say No, No you can not lose your Salvation.

John 10:14 I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD, AND KNOW MY SHEEP, AND AM KNOWN OF MINE.

John 10:26-30 But Ye Believe Not, Because Ye Are Not Of My Sheep, As I Said Unto You. My Sheep Hear My Voice, And I Know Them, And They Follow Me: And I Give Unto Them Eternal Life, And They Shall Never Perish, Neither Shall Any Man Pluck Them Out Of My Hand. My Father, Which Gave Them Me, Is Greater Than All; And No Man Can Pluck Them Out Of My Father's Hand. I And My Father Are One.
John 8:47 He That Is Of God Heareth God's Words: Ye Therefore Hear Them Not, Because Ye Are Not Of God.

1 John 2:19 They Went Out From Us, But They Were Not Of Us; For If They Had Been Of Us, They Would No Doubt Have Continued With Us: But They Went Out, That They Might Be Made Manifest That They Were Not All Of Us.

Philippians 1:15 Some Indeed Preach Christ Even Of Envy And Strife; And Some Also Of Good Will:
Matthew 7:15 Beware Of False Prophets, Which Come To You In Sheep's Clothing, But Inwardly They Are Ravening Wolves.

Matthew 12:33 Either Make The Tree Good, And His Fruit Good; Or Else Make The Tree Corrupt, And His Fruit Corrupt: For The Tree Is Known By His Fruit.
Luke 6:44 For Every Tree Is Known By His Own Fruit. For Of Thorns Men Do Not Gather Figs, Nor Of A Bramble Bush Gather They Grapes.

Matthew 7:21-23 Not Every One That Saith Unto Me, Lord, Lord, Shall Enter Into The Kingdom Of Heaven; But He That Doeth The Will Of My Father Which Is In Heaven. Many Will Say To Me In That Day, Lord, Lord, Have We Not Prophesied In Thy Name? And In Thy Name Have Cast Out Devils? And In Thy Name Done Many Wonderful Works? And Then Will I Profess Unto Them, I Never Knew You: Depart From Me, Ye That Work Iniquity.

2 Corinthians 1:24 Not For That We Have Dominion Over Your Faith, But Are Helpers Of Your Joy: FOR BY FAITH YE STAND.

1 John 5:13 THESE THINGS HAVE I WRITTEN UNTO YOU THAT BELIEVE ON THE NAME OF THE SON OF GOD; THAT YE MAY KNOW THAT YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE, AND THAT YE MAY BELIEVE ON THE NAME OF THE SON OF GOD.

1 John 3:6-10 Whosoever Abideth In Him Sinneth Not: Whosoever Sinneth Hath Not Seen Him, Neither Known Him. Little Children, Let No Man Deceive You: He That Doeth Righteousness Is Righteous, Even As He Is Righteous. He That Committeth Sin Is Of The Devil; For The Devil Sinneth From The Beginning. For This Purpose, The Son Of God Was Manifested, That He Might Destroy The Works Of The Devil. Whosoever Is Born Of God Doth Not Commit Sin; For His Seed Remaineth In Him: And He Cannot Sin, Because He Is Born Of God. In This The Children Of God Are Manifest, And The Children Of The Devil: Whosoever Doeth Not Righteousness Is Not Of God, Neither He That Loveth Not His Brother.

There are so many people that say they are believers in Christ Jesus but are not.
There are posers that want you to think that they believe in Christ Jesus for their benefit but don't.
Some people are wolves that are planted by the devil just to deceive and confuse the True Believers.
Then there are the True Believers, THE
TRUE BELIEVERS ARE FOREVER SAVED!!!
