CAN A PERSON LOOSE HIS SALVATION?
A: You cannot lose you salvation. John 10:28-30 are
good verses to look at:
"I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no
one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them
to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my
Father's hand. I and the Father are one."
Someone may say, Well we cant loose our salvation, but we can decide to reject salvation later on.
I don't think even that is possible. I think it's possible to
refuse salvation in the first place. We have free will and like
Joshua said, "...if serving the Lord seems undesirable to
you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will
serve." (Joshua 24:14-15)
But once we've truly accepted Jesus and trust in Him for our
salvation nothing can change that.
Again someone may say, "Well, what about Judas or someone
like that". But 1 John 2:19 says that if someone leaves the
faith they were never a part of the faith to begin with:
"They went out from us, but they did not really belong to
us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with
us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to
us." (1 John 2:19)
