If Jesus is the same yesterday, today & forever(heb 13:8),He never cease to be our Savior after dying on the cross for our justification & to destroy the devil’s work(1 john 3:8, 1cor 15:56). By saying that salvation is through faith alone, we deny that Jesus is the Word of God (rev 19:13, john 1:1-3 & 14), His Gospel/word of truth, the Holy Spirit, the hope, the full knowledge of God, His love & mercy, His faithfulness, His kindness, justice, righteousness, power & more,He who is coming again to bring salvation(heb 9:28), have no power to save man.
Can’t God save the mentally sick from birth, the little children who died young for whatever reason, the people who died before the flood & before the giving of the law and anybody else who did not have the chance to hear the Gospel of salvation? God said:/I will have mercy on whom I have mercy and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion. Therefore by claiming that faith alone saves and once saved,always saved, you deny the Father & the Son & we know who does these things & how they are called in the scriptures.
1 John 2:2-6,10-11,17 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and NOT ONLY FOR OUR SINS BUT ALSO FOR THE SINS OF THE WHOLE WORLD,. We know that we have come to know him if we OBEY his commands. The man who says, “I know him,” but DOES NOT DO what he commands is a LIAR, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone obeys his word, GOD’S LOVE is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him MUST WALK AS JESUS DID... The world and its desires pass away, but the man who DOES THE WILL OF GOD lives forever.
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. As for you, the anointing you received from him REMAINS in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, REMAIN IN HIM. And now, dear children, CONTINUE IN HIM, so that when he appears we may be confident and unashamed BEFORE HIM AT HIS COMING.
Matthew 10:22 All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.
Luke 8:12-15 Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.
1 Corinthians 15:2 By this GOSPEL you are saved, if you HOLD FIRMLY to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have BELIEVED IN VAIN.
2 Thessalonians 2:13 Stand Firm But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God chose you TO BE SAVED THROUGH THE SANCTIFYING WORK OF THE SPIRIT AND THROUGH BELIEF IN THE TRUTH.
Titus 3:7-11 so that, having been JUSTIFIED BY HIS GRACE, we might become heirs HAVING THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE. This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to DEVOTE themselves TO DOING what is GOOD. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone. But AVOID FOOLISH CONTROVERSIES and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless. Warn a divisive person once, and then warn him a second time. After that, have nothing to do with him. You may be sure that such a man is warped and sinful; HE IS SELF-CONDEMNED.
Hebrews 10:23-24,29-31 Let us hold unswervingly to the HOPE we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that SANCTIFIED HIM, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE.” It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Hebrews 10:36,38-39 You need to PERSEVERE so that when you have DONE THE WILL OF GOD, you WILL RECEIVE what he has promised. But my righteous one will live by faith. And iIF HE SHRINKS BACK, I will not be pleased with him.” But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved.
Hebrews 6:4-6 It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace.
2 Peter 2:20-22 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are AGAIN ENTANGLED IN IT AND OVERCOME, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud.”
