Now time for you to answer and not avoid....

How much do you need to backslide to keep your salvation?
I do not even understand the question? I do not need to backslide one bit to keep my salvation. So I guess my answer to you would be: None.
My salvation rests on the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross when He shed His blood for my sins, not on me backsliding or not

You are correct.. those not under law are not condemned by it because they believed the New Covenant... and shall be therefore judged by the Lord according to the law of liberty.
no they will not be judged by the lord at all, except faith For rewards, he law of liberty will never condemn anyone, the law of Moses is the only law god gen that god said you will be judged if you do not obey every word.

Those under Grace are set free to serve GOD.

Those under Grace are to believe unto the saving of their souls... and recieve Everlasting life if they are Faithful. Now we know He is Faithful who promised... so we hold fast.
Those under grace do serve God, amen, and they have eternal life and can never lose it (again see john 6) BECAUSE of Gods grace,

why are are you trying to earn Grace and preaching it can be earned.

Now you can not ask me to say keep the Sabbath and be saved.. because if you do it not in Faith of the Messiah you would break it because you would be under the law.. if you are set free and under Grace you would be at Liberty to serve and Love GOD in your newness.
Again, avoiding the question, third strike.
I rest my case here :D God bless you, enjoy the thread.

Hi Meggido...We can back slide many times can`t we as long as we are trusting, leaning and relying on our Lord...As long as we believe and are growing, we will always have Salvation...But those who go back sliding because they like it, and have no godly sorrow for their sin, then have they not turned away:confused:...Only replying to see if i understand, not something i know for sure...xox...

The prodigal son backslid slid as far as one can backslide, yet he was still called the son, he never lost his sonship.

yu can not backslide your way out of losing your sonship, blessing? Yes, sonship. No.

well you did not have to earn it to get it, just to keep it. At least that is what they say,

how one can can not see they are the same is something I can not comprehend.

Grace Evangelical Society has a video on their Free Grace Theology. Yes, one could gather from that license to sin. I've put the video up before, but people flip out on it because some very famous preachers teach this stuff, and they get offended by it.

One could search for adherents to this teaching, it will surprise many. Then, listen to what they actually are teaching after this, and you will see the errors in what they say. It surprised me as well.

I guess I missed your previous post on it.

Do you remind posting it? Just give a warning that some might not like what they hear and may be hazardous to their doctrinal well being. :)

Thanks so much for being a caring brother and wanting to protect the flock of God.

Yes because he repented, He asked God for forgiveness, he had godly sorrow, he knew he had been foolish...xox...

Remember, he was forgiven before he had a chance to repent, he thought he had to come back as a slave, his father gave him the greatest meal, that's grace 101

A lost son is still lost.

What is your point?

im not guilty of preaching the earning of Grace.


Faith is judged for what reward?


2 Corinthians 5

6Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 7(For we walk by faith, not by sight 8We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 9Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. 10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
