Eternal Security
Eternal Security is when someone believes that once saved always saved. Jesus did die our sins but he wants us to live the lifestyle that is a byproduct of our salvation. Jesus said "if you love me keep my commandments" so God gives us the ability to live a life style that is pleasing to Him and that will bring him glory.
- 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..............1 John 3:7,8
- Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience......Eph 5:6
Jesus died so that we change for the better, and live according the the will of God. He wants us to leave our old sinful lifestyles, become new and live a holy one. We must always pray that God's will be carried out in our lives. What ever is not pleasing to Him we pray to have it revealed to us that we can remove it from our life. Always remember Jesus will keep you if you want to be kept.
Ezek 3:24-27
24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die. 25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal? 26 When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die. 27 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.
Gal 5:16-21
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
