| If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by ebubeson(op): 8:10am On Jul 19 |
You may have heard teachers telling you that once you are saved it is final. Is this true? When you get saved and accept Jesus, you receive salvation but if you later commit any sin without repenting of it, you become a candidate of hell fire. Every sin you commit even after being saved, you must ask God for forgiveness of such a sin. A saved person might sin out of carelessness, but such a person must ask God for forgiveness of such a sin. If you assume that once you are saved, any sin committed does not count, you are or may be heading to hell fire. Hebrew 10: 38 "Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him" If you have committed any sin, please tell Jesus now that you are sorry and that he should forgive all your sins. |

ebubeson:See how you are mixing it up. If you are saved by Jesus, then why do you need to accept Jesus? If the fireman saves you from a burning building do you need to accept him and even know his name? No. For he has already saved you. So, the question is has Jesus Saved? And if He has, then when did He save? And note, there are many scripture that show that the saving has not yet occurred as we are all still in this burning building called earth, so there is almost nothing like a saved person. |

ebubeson:on the condition that person did not deviate from the faith Jesus Christ established when he resurrected Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected forever them that are sanctified. So the perfection is forever, not even your sin can stop it. Otherwise his death and resurrection is meaningless When you get saved and accept Jesus, you receive salvation but if you later commit any sin without repenting of it, you become a candidate of hell fire.there is no place in the bible that says this. It is wrong Every sin you commit even after being saved, you must ask God for forgiveness of such a sin.it is highly recommended to repent and ask God for forgiveness for you not to be judged by the law. But this absolutely unnecessary to maintain the law of Grace. What the law of Grace required is your faith only. Romans 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. A saved person might sin out of carelessness,the truth is, nobody want to sin and be made scape goat the law. Sin is a natural occurence nobody is above it. Everybody are guilty alike irrespective of the level of sin. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; but such a person must ask God for forgiveness of such a sin.very recommended and true. One need to ask God for forgiveness and repent. Everyone including Non Christians need repentence. Such repentance cannot take a non Christian to heaven If you assume that once you are saved, any sin committed does not count, you are or may be heading to hell fire.this is wrong. If someone is sentenced to court for killing your love one, you will never accept hell fire as justice. The person must be jailed or killed too Hebrew 10: 38 "Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him"That is, if a man draw back from the faith, take note. It didn't say if a man commit sin If you have committed any sin, please tell Jesus now that you are sorry and that he should forgive all your sins.There is even no guarantee that when a person continue doing this, he will stop committing sin. So let us sincerely try our best on our own to repent |

Paxonel "it is highly recommended to repent and ask God for forgiveness for you not to be judged by the law" See how God catches you? For you to admit that you have to ask God for forgiveness is proof that are condemned and are not saved as you were saying So, you see can block me but God will always catch you. |

ebubeson:Salvation and maintaining salvation is important |

Saved from what actually? Na you commit wetin dey say dem commit for Bible? |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by MrPresident1: 7:37am On Jul 26 |
Saved from what? Are you born to be saved, why do you need salvation and from what? Salvation from what exactly and for what? So, automatically as we are born we need salvation? Do they also need the salvation in China, Austria, Japan! Moldova, Afghanistan and Mongolia? What is this salvation all about? |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by MaxInDHouse(m): 7:55am On Jul 26 |
MrPresident1:Salvation comes from knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ who was sent by God! John 17:3 No matter where you are born this isn't the life God purposed for humans this system came due to the rebellion of our first human parents that is why there is sickness, suffering, prejudice, crime, mourning, pain and death. God will restore Paradise back as He purposed in the beginning but only the humble and righteous ones will be there. Zephaniah 2:2-3 So if you and your ancestors worship anything before now God won't judge you for that rather He will remember you during the resurrection of faithful people but as an UNRIGHTEOUS person because you don't know His righteous laws nor lived by it instead you have lived by the moral compass He built in all humans which is known as CONSCIENCE. Romans 2:14-15 This means you will have the opportunity to live once again among God's servants in Paradise {Luke 23:43} and they will teach you all the things you need to know about everlasting life which Jesus taught them. But if you have met Jesus' disciples in your lifetime and noticed all the fine qualities that God wants you to know about Him and His people yet you chose to ignore then you may no longer be needed in Paradise! Matthew 10:14-15 |

Nothing the Biblical God gives is forever o! Go and verify! |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by judewrites: 10:10am On Jul 26 |
If Jesus became sin and God the father looked away from Him ....who are you that will enter heaven with any sin?Just one sin can disqualify even the holiest from making heaven! You have to work out your salvation, nothing like forever saved if you live in sin! Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity... — Habakkuk 1:13 |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by motymop: 10:14am On Jul 26 |
one thing i love about christianity is that you can commit all the crime in the world, after killing people and stealing from them...jesus christ will still forgive you on your dying bed ![]() there is literally no repercussion as long as you get saved after committing crimes, God will forgive you that is typical Christian doctrine |

chatinent:from eternal death and destruction |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by orisa37: 10:17am On Jul 26 |
VERY FUNNY MAN. YOU WANT TO RECLONE ABACHA AND BUHARI FOR NIGERIA AGAIN. GOD DOES NOT OPERATE THAT WAY. YOU MUST BE VERY RIGHTEOUS TO BE SAVED ONCE. |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by gohf: 10:17am On Jul 26 |
motymop:lol that's if the opportunity is even given abi 🤣 I mean waiting till one's death bed like one has an appointment and knows that day. If God grants anyone the opportunity and grace to repent it's probably because He has dealt with them accordingly to his judgement and mercy |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by gohf: 10:22am On Jul 26 |
judewrites:he looked away?! But even that sin couldn't keep Jesus dead, all the sins he carried and he still rose up and ascended and sat down at God's right hand. Think about that. All of humanity sins, billions, trillions of sins or even more couldn't keep him dead yet should we believe that the sins of one man of you alone can overcome God's love and mercy when you commit your self to God. |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by Vifx: 10:22am On Jul 26 |
So salvation now comes with a 'remember to clear your sin history before midnight' policy? Sounds more like software maintenance than grace. Interestingly. So Jesus said 'It is finished,' but apparently the fine print says, Terms and conditions apply ![]() |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by gohf: 10:23am On Jul 26 |
MrPresident1:from death and for eternal life |

1. Believe that Jesus is the Messiah/Son of God. [ Matthew 16:16-17 ] 2. Bear fruits of the spirit. [ Matthew 3:8 ], [ John 15:5], [Galatians 5:22-23] 3. Await judgement based on the fruit of the spirit. [Matthew 25:31-46] |

Vifx:Jesus said that work, that job is finished, but he also told us to pick up our cross and follow him. If person finish road na your job to follow the road |

Dtruthspeaker:true 💯✅ but lol you know that part he mixed up may have been a mistake |

gohf:“And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” — Mark 15:34 Jesus became a sin offering on the cross and a result God temporarily forsook Him. Jesus took the whole punishment for sin which belongs to all us. He was disfigured, tasted death and was in hades. He took away our sinful nature and gave us power over sin. So any Christian who decides to live in sin has deliberately chosen to go to hell. |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by Tjoccmars: 10:27am On Jul 26 |
You have everlasting life when you are saved. You cannot be unsaved again. Everlasting means= No ending. Nothing can take you to hell because you cannot be condemned. Salvation is never by works. |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by gohf: 10:35am On Jul 26 |
judewrites:you missed the point, so what Jesus felt forsaken, so what he cried and wished all that didn't happen. He turned to God who had the power to raise the dead and didn't turn to his own righteous deeds. He believed in God's mercy and promise that His holy one will not see decay and He obeyed. Because even sin cannot stop God from being faithful to His promise. |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by gohf: 10:39am On Jul 26 |
Tjoccmars:work out your salvation with fear and trembling. Yes salvation is never by works, but what works? Works of love? No, works of righteousness? No... Salvation is never by works of the law aka the religious rites of the levitical priests. Even if you have faith it must express it's self through love, for you are nothing without love no matter how great your faith is. For faith without works of love as taught by James, is dead. So therefore, our salvation is based on doing God's will and obeying the commandment to love God, our neighbors and yea to a lesser extent even those enemies. Are we saved yet? No, but all who believe and listen to Jesus SHALL BE SAVED as we endure to the end. Shalom |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by judewrites: 10:40am On Jul 26 |
gohf:You are twisting the scriptures.... How can you say, "so what He cried and wished all that didn't happen?" Do you know the depths of pain Jesus faced on the cross? He that never knew sin, became sin for us all, but what hurt him the most was the intimacy with God lost because of sin. I don't like arguing scriptures online, so I leave you alone to your twisted teaching. |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by expert234: 10:47am On Jul 26 |
There is nothing like hyper grace. If you sin again.and had no opportunity to repent from that sin before you die, na hell fire We Christians should not deceive ourselves |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by gohf: 10:49am On Jul 26 |
judewrites:was him turning to God twisting scriptures or do you feel uncomfortable with my words that you repeatedly neglect the point. The emotions Jesus felt are not understated but they pale in comparison to God's love and mercy to fulfill His word. Why could you not see that? That God doesn't move based on how we feel about Him but based on His promise to us, we may feel forsaken but His word will come to pass. If it did not matter to God that Jesus His beloved son had become sin according to God's will, sin he could not beyond. God showed us what Paul wrote, even if all the sin existed, there will be much more grace available. Even Jesus who felt forsaken said, I commit myself to you. Even Jesus who cried take it away, said Your will God not mine. Sometimes we glorify sin so much we miss the point. That's why John wrote, if you sin turn to God, repent and He is merciful to forgive you, even if your heart condemns you know that GOD is GREATER THAN YOUR HEART. |

Dtruthspeaker:Jesus saving you means you have been saved from sin.and transformed. It means your past sins are washed in his blood and you are now a new person even while you live on earth. You are making the exact mistake committed by the Jews, which prevented them from accepting Jesus as the messiah. Who is preaching all these nornsense to you people?! |
| Re: If A Person Is Saved, Is He Or She Forever Saved? by motymop: 10:59am On Jul 26 |
gohf:there is always opportunity to get saved after committing crimes and i love God, he will always forgive. that is why in this world i dont even believe in sins because at the end of the day, it is a means to an end, we cheat and lie because it is a means to an end and at the end god will always forgive us of our sins, as long as we accept him |
Why Once Saved Always Saved Is Not A License To Sin • "Once Saved, Forever Saved": Wrong And Unscriptural! • If You Were Born Into A Christian Home, You Are Forever Saved, Except • 2 • 3 • 4
What Exactly Is God's Role in Natural Disasters? • Did God Create An Evil Tree? Did God Tempt Man? • Jesus Vs The Devil
....who are you that will enter heaven with any sin?
