Why I now believe that salvation can be lost.

The dumbest statement is in the bible. Shows how you consider the bible.

Yes but love is not stupid. Yet if you had a genuine need for 10000$ and i'm in a position to give without hurting myself, i would.

And, don't give so that you go to heaven or giving because you think you are going to heaven. Giving is out of the heart, based on compassion, it has nothing to do with the thought of ascending to heaven and some descending to hell. This is what we call faith.

Rom 10: 6But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’b (that is, to bring Christ down) 7or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’c (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).”

Mostly what you are saying is that you were never born again. You had the opportunity. The word was planted in your heart but you allowed the cares of this world to come in and steal the word away.
I can say one thing that I know is for certain IF you have ever had the Holy Spirit speak straight to your heart you will NEVER cease in seeking out that voice in your life. Blessed are those who seek after righteous for they shall be filled. Having tasted the word of God one can NEVER be satisfied with anything less.

The issue with OSOS there is no such thing. The Holy Spirit will not speak to anyone who is merely curious about spiritual things.
Communication with God is most always begun as a result of desperation. Afterward it is always a matter of hunger. You never loose the desire in wanting more.

I have spoken to many people who have wanted this hunger in their lives but just could not confess they have it. God will grant hunger to all who truly desire hunger. If you do not have the hunger stay on your knees until you wear God down with your insistence. It can happen and it will always be rewarding.

I am not saying eternal security comes through works I am talking about salvation and the born again experience ,which by the way are two different things.
Being born again is an event in ones life. Being saved is something that happens each day. There is a reason a person is born again the reason is to be comforted to the image of Christ also called salvation , also called the resurrection unto life.

A child born into this world who becomes troublesome is not cast out on the street.The parents correct them and guide them in the right direction. How do we believe our heavily Father would do any less?

Well look at that, a laughing face after referring to obese people. Your disdainful hypocrisy speaks loud and clear.

Congratulations on posting what may very well be the dumbest sentence in human history.

I didnt mean it like that and it wasnt directed towards obese people.

What I am saying is we cant supply food for peoples pleasures just because they want more.

And I apologize if that message looked that way, it wasnt my intention for it too come across like that...

Well I guess you Never post hypocrisy anyway I apologized for my error, so you need to do the same. For calling another persons sentence dumb. Making out like they are stupid. But I get it- the holy spirit is working in you hey?

No need to apologize, Nat. I’m blessed with great health and work hard at maintaining a nice physique.

I think you have a good heart, in fact I think your heart is pure, but with all due respect and no malice whatsoever, I think your theological beliefs are misguided, and I worry about you.

My arms of friendship are open to you if you like and you have my word I will always be kind and respectful to you.

So if we accepted Jesus as our savior and decide to fall and sin or deny Him and we don't ask for forgiveness and pass away, are we guaranteed salvation or were we predestined from the free will we chose? Doesn't He already have His chosen? We are to be disciples and go out and preach the gospel... those who we preach to and become saved, were they already in His chosen plan?

Yes we have to continue to the end to get saved. We need to remain with Jesus through our tests, sufferings and trials. Enduring to the end to get saved.... and keeping the our faith until the very end😉

Well your definition of faith isn't the definition of faith according to James because it doesnt believe in works (LOVE). So the definition of faith you have is faith alone "demon faith" according to James. This faith doesn't actually save but it's only merely a belief in one God. You believe there is one God good even the demons believe that and shudder. Oh foolish person do you want evidence that faith without works is useless?????

Lol. Thats alot of work,

so much for saved by grace

Out of context. Try again.

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

First commandment is to Love God... when we love and obey Him, we are accepting Him as our savior. Yes, our second commandment is to love one another, however IMO loving our neighbor is not the same thing as loving our God.

So you dont think we need to love so we can go to heaven? Because the reason we love others is to show love to God in keeping his commands. Because doing it simply out of doing it, if its not for God wouldn't really have a benefit in our spiritual walk, because many non Christian's show love to poor people. But when we show love to others its because we love God.

Anyway this is my opinion 😉

Mostly what you are saying is that you were never born again. You had the opportunity. The word was planted in your heart but you allowed the cares of this world to come in and steal the word away.

You said "Christ being a stumbling block for some" is the dumbest statement, the same statement is found in the bible bible.

And you took it out of context. I glorify God by thanking him every day and you said be careful Jesus can be a stumbling block. OK, the sentence is not the dumbest, taking it grossly out of context lacks good discernment.
