IF we can lose our Salvation by sinning, then does this mean we need to be Re-baptized every time we lose our Salvation?

Notice i said IF.

Can you provide scripture that says you can lose your salvation by sinning?

LOL. I think you do not understand either the concept of baptism or the nature of apostasy.

If I lose my salvation, it will be because my Savior is not strong enough to keep me and lied to me.
When He said eternal, I placed my total trust in Him, not in me.

*sigh* you cannot lose your salvation.. if you can you would have lost it many times. Its God who keeps you until the very end not your faithfulness but Gods faithfulness

No, this is like the prodigal son returning to the father before he dies.

Then why does the bible say "...IF YOU remain faithful onto death."?

:) because the person who IS TRULY SAVED will continue and persevere until the end.

Why?? hmm because God through his spirit continues to gove you the needed strength to be able to perservere.

It is God who begins a good work and God who is faithful to complete it.

So your salvation is based on YOU remaining faithful?
My is based on Jesus.
Grace is the gift of God, BUT He only gives that gift to those who obey Him.

This doesn't mean they were saved in the first place.

Great verse concerning the kingdom of heaven, but that verse is about the literal kingdom of Christ on earth, but the believer today is in the kingdom of God where we are sealed by the Holy Spirit. The KOH is the physical aspect of the kingdom promised to God's physical people Israel, and the Kingdom of God is the spiritual aspect of the kingdom in which the believer lives after the resurrection. Since the nation of Israel rejected their Messiah, the KOH has been postponed till the fullness of the Gentiles be come in.

You teach sins are washed in the waters of baptism. That is damnable heresy!

LOL.. you quoted a scripture which says "Lord, Lord did we not cast out devils in your name, etc"

but you missed out what jesus reply was. "depart from me you workers of lawlessness, for I NEVER KNEW YOU"

notice Jesus didn't say I once knew you.. as if somehow that had salvation then lost it... No

Jesus says I NEVER KNEW YOU.. meaning they never had a relationship with God at ALL there whole lives

Thats not what the bible says. It says there are those who have tasted and known that God is good. They understood truth, but left that truth, and that they cannot come back- they WERE saved and lost their salvation.

So the other question would be is someone truly saved or is it a false conversion.
