Show me a scripture that I have contradicted.
Mind you, not a OSAS doctrine; I’ll gladly contradict OSAS teaching with scripture as often as the Spirit leads me to do it.
I know she is QUITE capable of DEFENDING her OSAS DOCTRINAL BELIEFS. But I have it saved on my computer. THERE ARE LOTS MORE VERSES THAT SUPPORT ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED than I have here, AS TRUTH, SO THIS SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT:
2 Timothy 1:9 (HCSB)
9
He has saved us and called us with a holy calling,
not according to our works,
but according to His own purpose and grace,
which was given to us in Christ Jesus
before time began.
Titus 3:5-7 (HCSB)
5
He saved us—
not by works of righteousness that we had done, but
according to His mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
6 He poured out this ⌊Spirit⌋ on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
7 so that
having been justified by His grace, we may become heirs with the hope of eternal life.
Romans 4:3-5 (NET)
3 For what does the scripture say? "
Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness."
4 Now to the one who works,
his pay is not credited due to grace but due to obligation.
5
But to the one who does not work, but believes in the one who declares the ungodly righteous, his faith is credited as righteousness.
Ephesians 4:30 (NKJV)
30
And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God,
by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
Ephesians 1:13-14 (HCSB)
13
When you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and when you believed in Him, you were also sealed with the promised Holy Spirit.
14
He is the down payment of our inheritance, for the redemption of the possession, to the praise of His glory.

Romans 11:29 (HCSB)
29
since God’s gracious gifts and calling are irrevocable.
Ephesians 2:4-5 (HCSB)
4
But God, who is rich in mercy, because
of His great love that He had for us,
5
made us alive with the Messiah even though we were dead in trespasses.
You are saved by grace!
Ephesians 2:8-9 (NJB)
8 Because
it is by grace that you have been saved,
through faith; not by anything of your own, but by a gift from God;
9
not by anything that you have done, so that nobody can claim the credit.
Romans 5:8-11 (HCSB)
8 But
God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us!
9 Much more then,
since we have now been declared righteous by His blood,
we will be saved through Him from wrath.
10 For if,
while we were enemies,
we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, ⌊then how⌋ much more, having been reconciled, will we be saved by His life!
11 And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
We have now received this reconciliation through Him.
1 Corinthians 15:10 (HCSB)
10 But by God’s grace I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not ineffective. However,
I worked more than any of them, yet not I, but God’s grace that was with me.
1 Peter 1:3-5 (HCSB)
3 Praise the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
According to His great mercy, He has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead
4 and into
an inheritance that is imperishable, uncorrupted, and unfading, kept in heaven for you.
5
You are being protected by God’s power through faith for a salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.
Romans 11:6 (NASB)
6 But if it is
by grace,
it is no longer on the basis of works,
otherwise grace is no longer grace.
Philippians 1:6 (HCSB)
6 I am sure of this, that
He who started a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
2 Corinthians 3:5 (HCSB)
5 ⌊It is⌋
not that we are competent in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves, but our competence is from God.
Philippians 2:13 (HCSB)
13
For it is God who is working in you, ⌊enabling you⌋ both to desire and to work out His good purpose.
Ephesians 1:11-14 (HCSB)
11
We have also received an inheritance in Him, predestined according to the purpose of the One who works out everything in agreement with the decision of His will,
12
so that we who had already put our hope in the Messiah might bring praise to His glory.
13
When you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and when you believed in Him [Long before you can do your first work, so Obedience is Part of your Agape Love, that you do after you are SAVED.], you were also sealed with the promised Holy Spirit.
14
He is the down payment of our inheritance, for the redemption of the possession, to the praise of His glory.
2 Timothy 2:19 (ESV)
19
But God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.”

27
My sheep hear My voice, I know them, and they follow Me.
28
I give them eternal life, and they will never perish—ever! No one will snatch them out of My hand.
2 John 1:2 (HCSB)
2
because of the truth that remains in us and will be with us forever.
><>
We teach that Obedience has NEVER been part of Salvation, HOWEVER, Obedience is part of Our AGAPE LOVE, Rom. 5:5.
John 14:15 (HCSB)
15
“If you love Me [Born Again], you will keep [After You Have Been Saved] My commands.
1 John 5:3 (HCSB)
3 For this is what love for God is: to keep His commands. Now His commands are not a burden, [when done out of Agape Love.]
Ephesians 6:24 (HCSB)
24
Grace be with all who have undying love for our Lord Jesus Christ.
Only Obedience that is done out of Agape LOVE, is accepted by GOD. It has NOTHING to do with SALVATION or maintaining it.
The Deeds have to be solely because we LOVE HIM, OR they are Wood, Hay, and Stubble at best, OR they are FILTHY RAGS at Worst.
