Would you say a saved person could temporarily be deceived by false prophets, even about the Gospel?
When i first heard the Gospel i happily received it. I just thought its too good of an offer to say no to, even though i obviously had some doubts from a whole lifetime of the world telling me otherwise creeping in. I suppose i believed enough to bow my head and pray afterwards.
After that i sometimes thought that its too good to be true and kinda sought out "other versions" (i understand there is only one) and in that process heard a whole bunch of false doctrine.
Yesterday, and sometimes before that, i realized that some of this false doctrine did stick to me.
For example, i used to say "believing means trusting in the finished work of Christ on the cross alone to save you".
Yesterday however i heard a pastor (Steven Anderson) and saw my error corrected. The "finished work of Christ on the cross" is his sinless life. He obviously still had to pay for our sin in hell and rise again. I left those parts out with my saying.
Clearly i spread false doctrine about the Gospel, even though i firmly believed myself to be saved.
My question: Could a saved person temporarily be saved about even the Gospel or was i saved just now?
Please help me understand. Thank you so much.
