Yes. Hebrews 10:26. We can not be sinless but we can strive to sin less. We do not repent to and grow in faith to get saved but because we are saved. We do not produce works to get saved but to show we r saved by faith. Faith produces works and fruit. Repent and trust in Jesus
This is very true! Jesus has established a Kingdom that is upside down from the way the world thinks! Here we don't do good because we want to be saved but because we have already been saved!
Hebrews 10:26 "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins" you can claim to know God and sin. again the payment is only done once Jesus won't come back to die again, once he comes back again there's no more time for any repentance and it will be too late. Don't merely think you can't be sinless the the Holy spirit is greater than this he is infinite and personal he will bear fruit. and will not leave his work abandoned and unfinished. some made it to the promised land yes but there are some who don't even moses who only caught a glimpse but if you faithly walk with the spirit I know for certain God will deliever you to that promised land. so don't merely think being a sinner is your end destination.
Hebrews 10:26 is taken out of context, it’s about Jews who have heard about Jesus’ sacrifice, but are going back to the old ways of the law, relying on sacrifices of animals, that’s why if they reject what Jesus did, and continue those animals sacrifices, it won’t save them, there sins won’t be forgiven, Which is why it says For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins. If they keep on sinning after knowing what Jesus did p, those sacrifices of animals no longer remains.
yes you can be sinless all through the holy spirit! he bears many more gifts aswell! people limit him by believing that he only does certain things!@@user-qb9pf5jo6l
Hello, just wanted to comment here, if no-one sees this, but I am going through a journey of sorts and got lost. I think my Father wanted me to see this video, as I felt earlier today that I had been lost. Please, if anyone sees this, please pray for me. It is a bit of a selfish request, but I am afraid, and wish my heart to not be filled with fear. Thank you kindly, and God be with you all.
Here is a verse/prayer for you to study: “The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. O LORD, Your loving devotion endures forever--do not abandon the works of Your hands.”-Psalm 138:8
yes, i will pray for you after this comment, my friend, Go to God, seek him, and you will find him, James 4:7-10 "submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will Come near to you. wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up."
I’ve been on my walk with Jesus for a while now and the enemy has been trying to use intrusive thoughts to throw me off course. I am glad I can rest in knowing that I am saved!
You’re not alone on that one. Ever since I’ve been getting better at life my mind has gone off the rails with insanity. Weird twisted thoughts but I don’t let it get in the way because I know the lord has plans for me
@@Pepperoni-and-cringe Amen! One verse that has helped me tremendously is James 1:2-3. It reads: “Consider it a great joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you experience various trials, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.” The fact that the Holy Spirit continues to bring us to God in prayer and in the word daily, tells me that we’re on the right path. I pray that you continue to endure in your walk with Jesus just as I am, and many others! ✝️
If the thoughts seek to divide you from God; they are surely from unclean spirits. Those truly born again walk in grace of God (and God helps us stay there). Jesus said those who love him will keep his commandments. If you find yourself not doing sins you lived in before that is surely a good sign. If you thirst for God and closer relationship it is surely a good sign :) None of the followers of God were perfect. All fell short. We must not react as one such as Cain who fled God when he sinned, rather we should be like David who threw himself at God's feet when he sinned in true repentance.
Jesus saw every sin u were ever gonna commit, saved or unsaved, and still chose to save u. It’s not about us, it’s entirely about him and what he did on the cross. Edit: a lot of people are misinterpreting what I’m saying. We must believe and trust what he did on the cross, and not our works. I was in no way meaning that this is a gift passed to those who don’t believe. We must accept the gift to receive it.
yes but we gotta accept his gift, if we reject him and don't want him then he isn't gonna force us to go to heaven, we gotta repent and truly trust in Christ
@@Holden-uf7 it’s not at all about obedience. Saying u need to do something as well is saying that what Christ did isn’t good enough. Ur stuck in the gospels in Jesus’ ministry where he was focused on his people to bring his kingdom. His kingdom has been postponed because they rejected him, and now we’re under a dispensation of grace. If u read Acts 9-13, you’ll see that transition happen.
Thank you I'm coming back to Jesus now I'm crying because I can't believe I tried to become a Muslim I love Jesus thank you for showing me this video this is just what I needed
Almost did the same during high school I thought something along the lines of 'what's the difference?' Oh what I would learn... Thankfully, we have Christ instead
@@aarizshaikh9724 I'm quite aware of the tale that 'Allah' was a deceiver of billions of people for around two thousand years about who was on that cross. Fortunately, the actual Lord is not such a liar but the judge who stepped down to pay the fine of sin, that being death, out of love on that very cross. Likewise, Jesus was no mere prophet (nor did he speak from the crib) but the Word; who was with and *is* God.
When I was about 12 years old, my dad had taken a very active role in mentoring me in my faith and walk with God. We had long and frequent discussions and were very open and honest with each other, even talking about our deepest and most secret sins, fears, regrets, etc. One Sunday, as church was starting, dad scooted past me in my seat to get to his and he whispered to me "are you sorry?" I quickly said yes. He asked "are you sure?" That one question, so simple but it hit me like a truck. That made me question EVERYTHING in life, made me question everything about myself. It forced me to be brutally honest with myself and deal with some very hard and scary truths. Sometimes, we Christians aren't as remorseful as we should be. We don't always repent as often or earnestly as we should. Sometimes, we lie to ourselves, and if we can't be honest with ourselves, we can't be honest with God. That one question from my dad is probably the most powerful question anyone has ever asked me and it has helped me grow as a person and as a child of God.
BLOT OUT The bible warns that some will depart from the faith in the latter days ( you can’t fall away/de[art unless you were a part of it to begin with). The Bible warns about Backsliding (you can’t back slide if you didn’t slide forward to begin with). Also, there is reference to people’s name being blot of the book of life (your name can’t be blot out unless it was written first).
@@the.seagull.35 No need to be sorry. He had been teaching me a lot about sin and forgiveness, so when he asked if I was sorry, he was referring to sin. He was asking if I truly regret my mistakes and my sins and if I was truly repentant. When I said yes too fast, he asked if I was sure. He wanted me to be completely open and honest with myself. Hope that helps explain it better. :)
The worst thing that can ever happen to anyone is hearing Jesus say, “ I never knew you “! I don’t want to think once I’m saved I’m always saved for the fact that I don’t want to get comfortable in any way when I sin. I repent, ask for forgiveness and ask Holy Spirit to help me never to do that again. I know I’m forgiven. That’s my thoughts. That’s how I feel. We are all different. So whether you believe or not that’s between you and Jesus. Don’t get comfortable in your sin. ❤ Thank you everyone for your comments but I hate sin. I know that Jesus’s Blood washed away every sin when I was born again, I know this but I love Him too much to sin and not apologize for it! Please, I get what you’re saying and try to hear me too.
Peace be with you Friend ❤️ Indeed, if we get comfortable in our sin, then we are Not Saved. 2 Timothy 2:19 KJV [19] Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, *Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.* 1 John 1:6-7 KJV [6] If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: [7] but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Salvation is by the blood Jesus shed and rising on the 3rd day. It's not by anything we did or do. Yea we are to strive not to sin but God doesn't take away our salvation. God says he will never forsake us and no one can pluck us from his hand. The people that God will tell them he never knew them were never Christians to begin with. If you truly believe in your heart about God you have nothing to worry about as far as salvation. People still sin after being saved because the flesh is still sinful. It's a constant struggle. Satan wants people to doubt their salvation. Do you really think God wants you to feel doubt about him and his power to save? Scripture says when you are saved he forgives past, present and future sins. God has feelings. It probably hurts his feelings when people doubt their salvation. God wants his children to feel secure. Satan is who creates doubt.
This statement is something I’m so scared for! Working towards being righteous everyday, but everyday I always do something to make me one step father from him. My friend told me that the closer I try to get to know God and get close to him the more Satan attacks and it’s real!
@@Ellie46706 did you not read any of my comments concerning this? If you are scared you are either listening to the devil or else you don't believe in God. If you don't believe in God you would have reason to worry. If you really believe in God why are you scared? The bible says if God is for you, then who can be against you. Satan doesn't have the power to take anyone's salvation away. And God doesn't go back on His word and take away his promises. You need to go read John 3:16. Do you really believe what it says? If you really believe in your heart what it says why are you doubting your salvation. I would think it hurts God's feelings for those that say they doubt their salvation. Stop listening to these false preachers trying to mess with your mind. The devil is using them to try and mess with believers. If you are truly a believer, then BELIEVE. Put your trust and confidence in Him. Don't doubt God. Satan wants people to live in fear
@@Daniel_Godismyjudge--Isah33.22 that's not true for a born again Christian. Once a person believes as it says in John 3 16 all sins are forgiven past present and future. The only ones unsaved are unbelievers. When a believer sins they are still believers. They haven't lost salvation..saying a person can lose salvation in not scriptural. Trying to create doubt about one's salvation is the work of the devil.
For anyone, praying this all helps. If there’s any “ammo” here that’s either wanted or needed, go for it. As Scripture implies, “Freely you have received, freely give”: One is either in Jesus (100% forgiven - “Sheep”) or in Adam (0% forgiven - “Goats”). There is no such thing as a “Geep” - No one is ever “50% forgiven” (John 5:24, Colossians 2:13-15, Hebrews 10:14, 2 Peter 1:3-4, 1 John 2:12, etc.). Both testaments are blood economies but this new one is permanent. There will never again be another Calvary or Resurrection. No need. They were effective the first time. (Lest anyone forget that everything, including all of the laws in the Old Testament point to the message of the cross in the New Testament. When Jesus fulfilled all 613 rules of that Mosaic Law (or “Torah”) thing, He rendered it obsolete. That “Mosaic Law” includes the Ten Commandments brought down from Mount Sinai by Moses as well as everything mentioned by the O.T. prophets (Matthew 5:17-20 -- He didn’t ABOLISH any of it but rather FULFILLED all of it.) That "Mosaic Law" stuff is all but a type and shadow of what Christianity is all about here in the A.D. Era through Jesus.
I had saving faith but still succumbed to temptation and bathed in the tub of sin. I paid a high penalty but received God's grace to not be struck down in my sin. That was a decade or so ago. I've since repented and turned 100% to the Lord. Praise God for His mercy!

You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! Most people say “Trusting and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 Yeah, that reasoning is hard to argue with and it's the big problem with once saved always saved ideas. It has no way to explain passages that talk about people being blotted out.
@@dman7668 I would think they were never truly saved or born again of the Spirit to begin with (such as Judas). Had some discussions with friends about it and we all have varying opinions. How can you lose the Spirit once He indwells you? He doesn't leave just because you sin again. So that is why I believe that once He comes to you, you are saved and sealed forever. Goes along with election and predestination also, which a lot of people do not like. Guess we will all find out one day but I do trust my Lord.
God bless everyone amen I love you Jesus and believe in you and i trust you. Thank you for everything God. If anybody hasnt told you. You are loved by Jesus You are great You are not useless You are awesome Dont worry your wishes will come true Have a great day.
Make sure as a you are a repentant Christian. Read the Bible daily and pray often throughout the day, the devil is trying to make lukewarm Christians everywhere.

I believe that Jesus saved me, because since I got closer to Him, I feel more peace and happiness than before. God gave me His Holy Spirit and I won't turn away from Him again! I will always need Jesus in my life and without Him I feel worthless.

The Holy Spirit shines a light on us. That need you feel for God is a very good sign. "Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven". Trust in Jesus and keep your eyes on him always. You will struggle. You will walk through times of not feeling close to God. You will be tempted. Even so; Jesus said "Take heart for I have overcome the world" Do as another said; read the word daily even if only a paragraph. Pray at least daily, I prefer heart to heart as honest as possible and personal to God. Stay humble before God. Strive to get to know him better and your love and trust will grow. You never truly walk alone in Christ.

@mr.seapig2811, You are wrong my friend, salvation is instant, once you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, you are already saved..

The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me. Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul? Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 That's not what that verse means friend. Did you even watch this video? It's clear that salvation is by Faith alone in Christ alone and if someone is truly saved they can not then be unsaved

When I hear people say you can lose your salvation, their saying Jesus shed his blood for nothing. Jesus paid the ultimate price for each of us. Its a gift you can accept or deny.
If you are christ worthy then take up your cross and follow him only confessing with your mouth is not what Jesus ment many christians will be left behind through itchy ears whatt they want to hear Jesus made away through his blood but your Free willl decide which way his gospel he explains to live a holy life 10:04
Where people get the idea that salvation is something automatic when following men's commandments is beyond the limit of proper understanding. When Yeshua died on the cross it was as the Passover Lamb of God for His people, Israel. Upon His resurrection He opened the door so all could be grafted to Israel if they follow the house rules. Many believe that after His sacrifice the Jews have now been replaced and now all you need to do is follow a self proclaimed Christian denomination and do all they say and you are saved. That is extremely far away from the Truth. One good example is people believing they can decide to make changes to His laws and commandments. Sunday is not God's Shabbat, the reality is saturday is and not any other day of the week. The Catholics have eleminated the 2nd commandment and split the 10th into two to compensate; that is not GOD's law that is men's idea of it. No one can force God to give him, or her something. He decides who is worthy and will render His decision on Judgement Day and not before.
Surely, God heard your prayer and showed you the way to be a child of God. May Jesus always be the light that guides you, and may you respond to the love of Jesus Christ, in the powerful name of Jesus son of God I pray, amen!
Romans 6:1-2 KJV What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? [2] God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

A tip that might work "How do i exercise my faith?" Try to write down everything that God did for you, even the smallest things (i took this tip from a video) and then when you feel discourage or feel like giving up (to sin or your christian life) read everything you writed, and worship God even if you feel like the world is going to fall down your head, pray and fast too, exercise your faith feeling confident in something like the video says, for example: you studied really hard for a exam, but you feel like you're not going to pass it, pray there and know that God is with you and you can pass the exam with God's help (this only applies if you REALLY studied). Another example is that you are going home and it's dark(night) and you know that someone can attack you in the middle of the night, pray and remember that God is with you, there's a bible verse about that but i didn't memorize it (put the verse in the comments if you can please 😢) then nobody can hurt you when you know you're with God, this is just a tip, i didn't try it, however i want to practice it, so you can do diferent simulations in your mind were they feel imposible for you to pass, and then remember God is with you. Jesus loves you ❤
If you tell everyone that you are a carpenter but day in and out, you do the work of an accountant are you truly a carpenter? No, you are an accountant.

No ministry, nor church can dictate your relationship on God. Nobody knows how your relationship is, nobody knows who you truly are, but God does. God is always with you, even until the end of the age. God is with us, through every sin, every trial, he is our Abba. In his sons name we pray! AMEN!

I cannot control my sisters heart but God upholds us. I hope she would return to God like the prodigal son.
She needs deliverance, pray to break any bondage's and fast if you can, seek out some who will help you in prayer and talk to a pastor if you can, it will take some time but don't give up, she doesn't have to know just keep lifting her up in prayer and God will bring things together at the right time but you have to understand she does have a free will, just don't give up.
she is still saved because our relationship to JESUS is unbreakable no matter what sin we commit but if she continue to backsliding more chasteneth comes into her life Hebrews 12:6 and if be possible she will be like to ananias and saphira.. and worst of the worst if she continues to backsliding many will terrible thing will happen to her life like what GOD said on proverbs because he did not choose the fear of the LORD and if she kill herself yes she is still saved but no reward in heaven. i am not endorsing suiciding but what im just saying is that is the amazing love of GOD to their sons no matter what sin we committed still we are saved unto the day of redemption Eph.4:30 bUT SADLY TO SAY MANY sons of GOD abusing the grace of JESUS that GOD gave to us. but do not be afraid there is no impossible in prayer. Jer,33:3 and add prayer and fasting too so that great miracle happen in your sister for sure, sorry for my english.
Hello just an update. with a help of our believer friend, she's continuously coming to sunday services now since last month. It started when she opened up the pain she experience after our mom died and the struggles she experienced in life then leading us to a topic about faith and Jesus. I realized that she was just hurt and felt unfavored and forgotten by God. after that, it was the first time in years that she asked me to lead a prayer. Within a week, just a few days after that, she was hired in a job she wanted after being unemployed for more than a year. the great thing is its a Christian company where all staff are co believers with a nontoxic work environment. My sister told me she felt like God was reaching out to her. She began going to church and attending some activities. we see that shes slowly trying to go back. many of our christian friends are still praying for her and I am so grateful to God for not giving up on her and the good things He has done. Thank you for your kind words🙂
I am in the same boat as your sister. I knew I was in the faith and had the word in my heart, and I myself backslid grieved God and now I have suicidal tendencys and I no what I did.
In one of my visitations to hell, Jesus showed me a person who was a Christian (Jesus said “he was a Christian like you”). But the guy unfortunately started sleeping around (1 cor 6:9). He died middle aged and went to hell forever it was dark but Jesus lit up the area, he asked Jesus for another chance but unfortunately it was too late for him, Pretty said, Repent and ask Jesus to help you with your struggles (James 4:7)
You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ YOUR BIBLE! Most people say “Trusting and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
Ezekiel 18:24 is the perfect answer for this question! ‘However, if righteous people turn from their righteous behavior and start doing sinful things and act like other sinners, should they be allowed to live? No, of course not! All their righteous acts will be forgotten, and they will die for their sins.’ NLT
The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me. Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul? Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
Yes 👍 You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived folks! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS. Most people say “Trust and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
HEARERS VS DOERS Romans 2: 13 (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; Do you simply hear the right path or are you walking in the right path the narrow gate. If I attend every college lecture does that mean I will do well n all assignments and exams? No. I have greater odds of doing well but I might not. There are people who know very little in comparison to you yet do well. Attending Church is good but living life as a Christian passes the test.
@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363Bro use your brain and stop reading the bible like a atheist. The ppl who hear but not do are the pharisees ment in romans. The people who hear the law also believe in the messiah to save them, and the moment they believe him and accept it, they are doing the will of God and are doers. Not just passive hearers who listens but dont accept. How can you read the whole bible which states by faith alone? what the law could not do for us because of the weakness of the flesh, God did by sending his own son to save us. You just cant grasp that Jesus actually forgives us and pardons us no matter our fleshly condition. Do you know what forgiveness means? or a Gift, or a sacrifice? You call God a liar and dont believe him. Thats why you cause division and insist Jesus not to save us alone, you want to prove yourself by good works to be saved. You might aswell be a muslim. Because they believe good works to get to heaven, you shouldnt speak a word of Jesus because you are not in grace. You are a stumbling block with your damning yapping and false doctrine. Let go and let Christ. I tell you the truth.
No Timothy, your good works are not merely "qualifying your faith" they are a means of your justification. That is why James says a man is justified by his works (notice the word justified by his works) and not by faith alone. Do your works justify you? they do according to James. Faith working in love does indeed justify us. It is not by faith alone,
@@dman7668 James is not talking about salvation. He is clearing out faith that does not serve others here on earth is dead, thats why he said after, "what good is it to bless a man and not give him what he needs. When he says justified you have to ask yourself, justified by what? And if you read in context in turns out that james is talking about being justified in mens sight. He uses abraham as a example. Later on james clarifies that abraham was in the end also justified by faith alone. Dude are you crazy in the head? The bible crystal clearly says its not about works! And logically. The burdens of the law was never there to justify us because of our weakness. The law was there as a schoolmaster to show us how badly we need christ. You think he died for you to prove yourself with works? Now before you say it. No im not taking a reason to sin. Doing good works is great! But when it comes doing to for salvation, you go into the red zone. You also disrespect Jesus and call is work unsufficient or a "unholy thing" Here are some verse that clearly state that its not by having a good lifestyle here in the flesh to be saved. Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Titus 3:5 He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to his mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the holy spirit. Ephesians 1:13-14 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation-having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view to the redemption of God's own possession, to the praise of His glory. Romans 8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh. Acts 16:30 and brought them out, and said, sirs, what must i do yo be saved? And they said, BELIEVE on thr Lord Jesus Christ, and though shalt be saved, and thy house Jesus said,"most certainly i tell yoy, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesent come into judgement, but has passed out of death inti life (John 5:24) Jesus said to them "i am the bread of life. Whoever come to me will not be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty" (John 6:35) Were does it say the sheep have to have works to prove your faith for salavtion? your desperate! pulling calvanistics things out of the blue. Where does it say we have to prove our self if we are saved? And Dont you start to make up different types of works to try to tell me some saves you. Mans only part is to believe. If you want to know the will of God just read john 6.40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. Dude let go, and let christ rule. Jesus knows your heart and if you think bribing God with good works is going to cut it. Think twice and thrice. If you love earning salvation so much, why not be a muslim, they have that system. Better then you coming here and beatinf the sheep and commenting damning doctrine. You are causing division and confusing new believers and putting burdens on them. You let them wonder if they are truly saved or not, because you put tasks on them, and they start to walk in the flesh and old law, Instead of the spirit and grace. You better stop what you are doing and repent from your pharisee type thinking. I say this with Reverence and love.
Whenever I mess up, I remember Jesus lifting Peter out of the water. He asked Jesus to call him out, and Jesus did; however, he sunk because he looked away and got frightened. I often ask God to help me never look at porn again, and He does as I feel His quiet convictions. However, when I fail, it's because of my own doing. He did answer my prayer, as He promised He would, and it's my own looking away that caused it to fail. Peter looked away because of fear, we may look away because of lust or anger or greed, but that doesn't mean Jesus never answered our prayer in the first place. HOWEVER when Peter asked for Him to save him, Jesus again obliged. He will do the same for us. I hope someone who needed this might see it
Oh wow. I was seriously addicted to porn until I was saved. Jesus healed my addiction but there are days when I stumble and look at porn. The worst part is that every time I stumble I could have easily avoided it. I don't get that overwhelming urge to look at porn all day and every day but for some reason I still get myself into those situations like an idiot every once in a blue moon. I feel so bad for doing it. I'm re- igniting an old habit that should have died and for what? All it does is make me feel guilty, doubtful of my salvation and afraid to pray and talk to God which in turn causes me to backslide more. I relate to your comment quite a bit.
I too am suffering with the lust of the flesh... even after I vowed never to do it again, I still gave in. Like another comment said "..We can't be sinless, but we can strive to sin less." I believe that if we put our full faith in God we can let this cruel addiction go. Lust is worse than the worst drug. We cannot be slaves to the calling of the lusting flesh, so let us fulfill our promise to the Lord to never indulge in this horrible sinful act again. Amen my brethren🙏✝️. #NoFap
@@georgiosgiannoukas3319As a female I can't fully relate to this, but I can relate to it somewhat. Lust of the flesh and desire for evil things has always been in my life. I continue to give in and feel guilty every time. I feel like a great Christian and then when I do the sin I feel so evil and awful. It does not feel good but I hope Jesus can save me. I don't have the strongest relationship with Jesus but I want one. :(
I feel what you're going through i really backsliding with a similar addiction. But I think this scripture says it all Romans 7:15 For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Sin is a opportunist it waits for you to get comfortable so it can creep in. But we all must do what Paul told us to do. Fight the Good Fight
I had been sinning willfully and I have been so afraid that my heart may have been hardened and I had lost my chance at salvation....thanks for the video
If you are truly ready to be free from sin, let me know and we can go through some scripture. When I say free, I truly mean free. You will never sin again.
Thank you brother, I was in tears when I was examining myself just before I watched it mu heart was pricking me of the many sins I commited and fear arose and this was encouraging and of great assurance that I can still work upto God by my saving faith I want to love Him too, each week your video is like God directly addressing my problems and I am greatly blessed to have such a Christian teacher and video to watch thank you so much andAll honor and glory to God who reveled this to you, praise be to God
Casey if you are saved just pray to God and confess your sins to him then leave all your sins at the cross.. Don't believe what ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED people say.. Revelation 2:5 Jesus said that he will remove your candle for disobedience.. Start asking God for forgiveness everyday for sins you know that you commit and the ones that you don't know also.. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus teaches the disciples how to pray. He recites the LORD'S PRAYER... In it he says ""forgive our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us... Trespass is Sin... Also says AND lead us not into Temptation..... God tries us. God sends us Temptations to test us... Repentance is very necessary to get to Heaven... God bless you and your family!!!
@charliecopeland390 James 1:13-14 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
@caseyjoses9746 Nobody is perfect except for our Father and Son... A few here on Earth claim perfection but they make me say yeah right, about that..... Take care my Brother God bless you and your family, keep looking up for our redemption draws near...
By his grace, I am saved. And I feel like I sinned so much that I was curious about loss of salvation. So God bless you, and thank you for this wonderful video.
I mean when u are under grace then you are saved and being under grace is accepting Jesus and being obedient too Gods laws and turning away from your sins meaning repent
Lord thank you for this video. I really needed to hear this, I'm 15 and ever since school started back up after the covid-19 pandemic ended I've been scared to repent and so depressed and eventually wasn't repenting for weeks or months or even days. "I just dont want to keep grieving the holy spirit, I'm tired of being a disappointment to the lord, if I serve him then I should continue to be obedient towards him!" That's what I said, but I was trying to do it all on my own and didn't realize it. For 2 years I was in darkness, but I just knew this isn't how a man of God should be living! So once 9th grade ended I used my summer time and continued reading the bible and praying. In that time of darkness for a 2 years I always told myself "a life without God is no life for me at all" and it really isn't! I just cant live without Jesus.😭
You are blessed by making that decision at 15. I'm 68 and was in darkness for over 30 years. I'm paying for all of those years since then. Keep reading and studying the bible and may God Bless You always.
I’ve been having such intense fear over my salvation and whether it’s true. However, I remember the confidence I had at Baptism when asked if I had accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior and it encourages me. I look back at my life before Christ and look at my life now and I’m gradually fighting or putting to bed old sins. I’m proud to say I’m working on getting better from sinful sexual stuff (by the Grace of God!!). I know that the enemy can plant thoughts and doubts and fears in our minds so I don’t know if my anxiety over my salvation is from him or not. Either way, I want to spend eternity with God.
I can relate. I don't do all the "ritualistic" stuff like going to church but I do believe. And correct me if I'm wrong, but what I always come back to is that I shouldn't be so dang stressed about it, because that's like being legalistic and trying to keep the Law. We're not under the Law anymore, and we never COULD live up to the Law. The Law is there to show us that we can't live up to its lofty standards. So whenever I'm in doubt, I always try to remember that if we could do it all, we wouldn't need Jesus, we wouldn't need a savior. We would be able to enter Heaven based on our deeds/works; not by faith. Every time I feel like I'm not living according to a standard that someone else says (including Christians), I think back on this. How we're not under the Law. And I think it's actually very judgmental for Christians to judge other Christians' faith/salvation status based on what they see in that person. We are constantly being sanctified. We are justified once (legally pardoned, by the Blood of Jesus), but are being sanctified (repenting of our sins) throughout our lifetime. Like a marriage. You start the marriage (justification), but are then married for life (continual sanctification). Now of course we shouldn't abuse God's grace. If we WANT to sin and don't want to repent, THEN we are not saved. But we are still imperfect even after being saved. Remember what Paul said: Romans 7:19-25 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do-this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature a slave to the law of sin. Paul was in agony of doing what he does NOT want to do (which is sinning). But he never considered himself unsaved like some are suggesting. And we can't forget about the criminal on the cross to whom Jesus said "I assure you, today you will be with Me in paradise." He couldn't have had works. All he did was called Jesus 'Lord' and asked to remember him when Jesus enters His kingdom. Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. I've heard that many atheists pray to God on their death beds! From what I understand, works don't save us, but they are "evidence" or proof of our salvation. But in the end, only God can truly know our hearts. It's all about our attitude towards sin. We don't just ask God to forgive us of our sins, we acknowledge that it is sin and ask God to change our minds and hearts. When we fall and stumble, the bible says: Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Yes we should feel ashamed for sinning, but we can also BOLDLY come to God seeking mercy. I also want to reiterate this passage, about putting on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18). It speaks about taking up the Shield of Faith, to extinguish the flaming arrows of Satan. Satan will try to convince us that we are fake, phony Christians. He's a liar and deceiver. Satan wants us to doubt our salvation. We do NOT put our faith in ourselves, in our works or even in our own Faith (if that makes sense). Our Faith is in what God's word says, for his word is Truth. We're fully trusting what God says is our salvation. Another armor piece is the Breastplate of Righteousness. This one personally speaks to me. Remember, the bible says: Isaiah 64:6(a) All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags The point is, even if you were like Paul, who says he could boast because as a Pharisee, he kept the law (Phillipians 3:9). Even Paul couldn't boast about keeping the Law. Even the most godly pastor on earth could not earn his way into heaven! Because their "righteous works" are like "filthy rags", which literally translates to a woman's bloody period cloth. Our good works is stained too much by sin to be considered clean. We are saved because Jesus was righteous. Not our own righteousness (works). I'm sorry for the long essay; I guess that was the Holy Spirit leading me to post this.
@@kitten1591 you’re fine! Thank you for the reply. I do also deal with a lot of mental illness, which the enemy certainly used to his advantage. The intrusive thoughts that he plants and tries to trick me into believing they’re my own and that I believe them (these thoughts are vile and then send me into a panic attack). I guess part of my problem is that I’m so self critical to the point that I find it hard to believe God, who is Holy and righteous, would even want to forgive someone like me. But then I have to remember that it’s not about me, it’s never been about me. Its always been about Jesus, and He loved me back when I was doing worse things and saved me, He’ll still save me from myself today when I do believe in Him. Nothing can pluck us from the palm of His hand, He is the good shepherd.
@@Cryptid.Corvid Amen! That is exactly why God is so worthy and deserving of our worship. God, as you said Who is holy and righteous, could have sent us all to hell, could have NOT spared Noah and his family and started a new 'Adam and Eve', but He didn't! He is holy and righteous, but He is also Love (1John 4:8). God made a provision, a way to reconcile us back to Him. God doesn't forgive you or me for any other reason than because of Jesus' blood. Without that, we were doomed. Also, God knew before you were even born, before even the Foundations of the Earth, God knew you. He thought of you. And He knew all the sins you (and I) would commit. Even back then, God knew we would sin but in His mercy and love, made a Way (Jesus is THE Way) to bring us back into Righteous standing and relationship with Him. So even though we don't feel like we should be forgiven, God forgives us because of the Cross. 1Jhon 2:1-2 My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father - Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. Revelation 12:10(b) ...For the accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accuses them before our God day and night... Satan loves to condemn us and make us feel like we cannot (or should not) be forgiven. He even accuses us before God the Father! (The nerve!) But Jesus Himself advocates on our behalf. Jesus said those who are healthy do not need a Doctor, but those are who sick. And Jesus would leave the 99 sheep to go after the one lost sheep that went astray. He even said "anyone who is without sin, can cast the first stone". Jesus is the only one Who qualifies, yet He was not angry or condemned the woman, He was merciful. He did not cast stones. She was guilty. But Jesus was not angry. And God is infinite, maybe that's why it's hard for us to fathom His love for us ❤
@@kitten1591 so true. It’s good to remember He will never leave us nor forsake us. I’ve found that the enemy has started coming after me even worse now that I’m trusting Jesus but I know that since I believe in Him I have victory over the enemy. Just as Jesus says in John 16:33 “These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” And as it is written in 1 John 4:4 “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” How blessed we are to have the Lord on our side fighting for us and protecting us, and loving us at the same time.
@@kitten1591 - no, the Holy Spirit was NOT leading you because he did NOT tell you that Romans 10:9 is for us. Romans 10:1-4 In order to understand Romans 10:9-10, it is better if we begin reading in verse 1: “[1] Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. [2] For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. [3] For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. [4] For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. Romans 10:9-10 was a formula for lost Jews to be saved from Israel’s apostasy during the Acts period. Paul wrote it with Jewish salvation in mind during the transitional period. He did it to provoke lost Israelis to understand and address their spiritual dilemma. Romans 10:9-10 has nothing to do with us Gentiles or members of the Body of Christ. There are religious people who do not like that previous sentence, but that is fine. I would rather believe my Bible than them or their denomination any day! You, friend? Could it be that you are probably not saved yet? 2 Corinthians 13:5 - King James Version - 5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? As ambassadors for Christ we would like to share the gospel of our salvation in the dispensation of God's grace. “Grace can be defined as the undeserved favor of God for people who deserve His condemnation.” God does not hold sins against us because they have already been paid for (every sin for every person.) Christ was made to be everyone's-every-sin (2 Corinthians 5:21). However, full reconciliation is not achieved until an individual "reconciles himself" to God (2 Corinthians 5:20). This happens upon belief of the gospel of our salvation. All humanity is forgiven but not all believe it. Being forgiven does not equal being saved, salvation comes by faith. Salvation is appropriated by faith, forgiveness of sins is NOT. Your sins were forgiven regardless of your belief. God did not need your faith at Calvary, He only needed His Son. SALVATION is only gained by trusting Christ - via belief in the word of truth (the gospel of our salvation.) Salvation IS by works, just not our own. It is not of ourselves, but through the gift of God's grace that we are saved. Upon HEARING the gospel, if we BELIEVE the gospel, we are sealed with the holy Spirit of promise unto the day of redemption (Ephesians 1:13-14). A lost soul can only be saved by trusting Christ to have done everything necessary for our salvation though His finished cross-work. Romans thru Philemon are the only books in the bible that explain salvation for today. In those books we find salvation is by faith alone, in Christ alone, without-any-works-of-any-kind-at-anytime. Christ died for your sins, and has risen for your justification (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) Put your faith in what He did rather than what you have done, are doing, or are going to do. Salvation is not getting-your-sins-forgiven, it's believing they already are. (2 Corinthians 5:19) Have a blessed day with insight, wisdom and discernment! Truth Time Radio, also on youtube and facebook, is here to help you better understand your bible and better articulate your faith to others.
The Bible speaks of how no man will take you away from God (John 10:28) and neither shall He forsake you (Hebrews 13:5) We are the deciding factor of whether or not we choose to follow Him. It's what makes our free will
The bible warns that some will depart from the faith in the latter days ( you can’t fall away/de[art unless you were a part of it to begin with). The Bible warns about Backsliding (you can’t back slide if you didn’t slide forward to begin with). Also, there is reference to people’s name being blot of the book of life (your name can’t be blot out unless it was written first).

It's amazing how complicated people will make this subject when it really is as simple as this video makes it out to be. Thanks for making this easy to understand.
A tree is known by its fruit likewise a real Christian produces good fruit. Suppose you have a apple tree and a peach tree both growing, how do I know which is which? The tree that produces peaches is the peach tree and the one that produces apples is the apple tree, likewise a so called Christian who is worldly/sinful is not a real Christian. Matthew 3:10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire
You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived! Most people say “Trusting and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
@wesleynunez3825 So, in scripture, "believing" is "obeying". It's what James dedicated an entire chapter talking about in chapter 2 ("faith" - works=/= saving faith). You're preaching to the choir here, but as far as "losing your salvation", no you can't for the simple reason that you're not responsible for your good works in the first place, God is. Paul wrote "it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure." [Philippians 2:13] It was YHWH Who said "I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules." [Ezekiel 36:27] So when you say that a believer can "lose their salvation", you're essentially saying that for God [Holy Spirit] some believers sin is too great for His power to overcome in their life (even as scripture plainly states that "everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world." [1 John 5:4]). You are not bigger than God's plans for your life. His plans are not contigent on your feeble efforts (mine neither). God fulfills is purpose for our lives, not us [Psalm 138:8]. God's election stands firm and what was decided in heaven before the foundation of the world will remain established here on earth. No mortal man or any other power under heaven has the agency to thwart any purpose of God's (Job 42:2). And it's true, there are a ton of imposters who claim they've been born of God and yet don't walk in His divine will. These people are lairs, and their condemnation does not sleep. Those who "walk away" to never return are they who never "knew" Jesus to begin with [1 John 2:19] this is why Jesus promised on the day of judgment He'd tell them plainly "I NEVER knew you" [Matthew 7:23] (AKA "you were never saved").

@@Finalizor Well, do you still have willful sin in your life? When I got saved, I know I had a problem with porn/masturbation and I felt anxious about my salvation the whole time. The thing is, it wasn't until I got serious about leaving all that behind that I began to enjoy God's peace. It was hard, but the truth is the only thing I really needed to do was pray and ask God for forgiveness when I failed as well as additional strength so I could stop. Eventually, through prayer, God built my spirit up enough that I stopped failing. It's all supernatural bro and it all just comes down to what do you want: God or sin?
Being a Christian is like a friendship with you and God and Jesus. Even though we will fall out a true friendship is always mended. We solve our differences and try not to wrong our friends again- A fake friend will just say “Eh, we’ll make up- I’ll let them come to me first” No! If you wanna have a friendship you gotta put in the effort! It takes two!
BLOT OUT The bible warns that some will depart from the faith in the latter days ( you can’t fall away/de[art unless you were a part of it to begin with).

Also, there is reference to people’s name being blot of the book of life (your name can’t be blot out unless it was written first).

One does not "lose" their salvation by sinning too much or not doing enough good works, but someone can truly be saved and then walk away from the salvation that God has given them.
I think this makes sense with why you have to keep examining yourself, because many people dont walk away in a big grand gesture. They walk away slowly adding more and more sin into their lives until they no longer care to know Jesus

The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me. Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul? Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
We are saved by faith alone not by repenting of sin. Trust in Jesus, not in your works. Jonah 3:10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not. This proves that turning from evil way/turning from sin is works and we are not saved by works, only by faith. In this same verse, we see God repents, which proves that it can't mean turning from sin because if it did how could God repent? You bring up James 2 which says faith without works is dead, but James 2 has nothing to do with salvation and is talking about our faith being profitable to others, why else do you think he repeatedly says "What doth it profit?" Here is a video that explains James 2 in full context: th-cam.com/video/usCuIboBxgI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Nm6t2dFmAt5tCjrn More proof that salvation is by faith alone is that repent doesn't even mean turning from sin it means change your mind. The Bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek, with some Aramaic. Translate the word repent to Greek and Hebrew and it clearly says it means a change of mind, so when Jesus says to repent and believe he is saying to change your mind from unbelief to belief. You may ask, if salvation is by faith alone then what makes us different from demons because they believe too well here is the difference, demons may believe but they certainly do not put their faith in Jesus, faith means trust, we believe in and trust in Jesus Christ as our lord and savior, and in his promise that anyone who believes in him shall be saved. Another thing to consider is, did Jesus promise demons and satan that they would be saved by believing? No, he made that promise to us, so I don't know why you're applying that to demons to try and say that salvation isn't by faith alone. I hope that this message touched your heart because I am telling you this out of love that you will not be deceived by the false gospel of turn from sin to be saved. I pray you come to the truth, God bless you and Jesus loves you.

@@morgancrandon1967 Enjoy reading Heaven: I was taken on an helicopter ride and I was observing building and I was saying wow, wow on repeat. Another time I was near a big building and there was a radio singing worship songs to Jesus (it sounded so good). Once the Holy Spirit told me “do you want me to take you to Heaven” I answered “No” then He said “Just know we are preparing a banquet” Jesus is awesome, do not miss out om being with Him forever.
Please read all these; Psalm 37:27, Romans 2:6-11. Faith WORKS by Love (Gal. 5:6). Love does no ill (sin) to his neighbor (Romans 13:10). Titus 2:11-14 There are two kids of works. Works of the Law and Works of Faith. We are NOT justified by works of the Law. We are most certainly justified by WORKS OF FAITH. This is called abiding in Christ by KEEPING His commandments fulfilled by LOVE. 1 Corinthians 7:19
So many people are going to hell because they don't realize that faith is the beginning but you need to repent and stop the practice of sinning! We all stumble, but there's a difference between practicing sin and stumbling occasionally. There's a difference between using God's love as a license to sin and using God's love as a process of becoming holy as he is Holy. If you harden your heart you are walking a very dangerous line. I remember I was struggling with sexual sin for a year and Jesus was very patient with me, but he showed me encouraging messages, and then he showed me the consequences of hell if I did not truly repent. I stopped committing the sins and today I know that God is still working in my heart to perfect my faith and to help me stop the practice of sinning. I certainly stumble from time to time but I'm not living in sin and I know I'm going to heaven.
*"...but you need to repent and stop the practice of sinning!"* Yes! That is what the Bible repeatedly teaches in plain, straight-forward, unambiguous language.
@@freegraceforum-hg7iw Wrong. Jesus saves by grace, but "faith without works is dead" -James 2:26. You need to acknowledge Jesus AND be a good person to get into Heaven, if you make a mistake, repent and admit you were bad, but, you can't just walk around robbing banks because you're "Saved". You won't get into Heaven if you don't repent. Saying you're "Saved" because you believe in Jesus is a narrow definition of believe, and you won't get into Heaven if you just sit on your hands. A lot of scripture to back me up. You need to read your Bible. I read the Bible, you should try it. *“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."* Matthew 7:21 "Or do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that *God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?"* Romans 2:4 "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. *How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?"* Romans 6:1-2 *"Repent, for the kingdom of Heaven is at hand."* Matthew 3:2 *"What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?* 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, *faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.* 18 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that-and shudder. *20 You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.* 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. 25 In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? *26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead."* James 2:14-26 "So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice, 8 do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness, 9 where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did. 10 That is why I was angry with that generation; I said, *‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.’* 11 So I declared on oath in my anger, *‘They shall never enter my rest.’”"* Hebrews 3:7-11 Matthew 23:1-39 *_"For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."_* Matthew 5:20 And, let's not forget the discussion of the lukewarm church of Laodicea in the book of Revelation. (Revelation 3:14-22) Why bother calling us lukewarm if all you need is to "believe"? You need to be on fire for God, repent of sin, *take up your cross daily* and follow Him (Luke 9:23), or you will suffer Hellfire (Matthew 7:19-20). *"If you love me, obey my commandments."* John 14:15. You don't love God, you love sin! You're using God as a ticket to get into Heaven, and not only will you not go up in the Rapture, you won't even enter Heaven at all! You're going straight to Hell! Repent of your sin. You are called to *be holy as He is holy* (1 Peter 1:16). It doesn't say be unholy because you're Saved! You have to actually stop sinning or you will be very surprised when Jesus says *"These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me."* Matthew 15:8 or "I never knew you, depart from me you workers of iniquity!" Matthew 7:23 You need to get right with God, stop the perpetual sin. Stumbling is different than living in sin. You need to repent or you will perish because your faith is dead on arrival. I clearly showed, in Hebrews 3:7-11, that hardening your heart will cause God to reject you, and you will not enter His rest. You need to make Him your Lord and obey Him. He's trying to restore the Garden of Eden, not Babylon! You think you're right with God, you're not right with God just by faith because your definition of faith is flawed. Faith results in works and repentance. Plain and simple. *"Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them."* Matthew 7:19-20 Works matter. A lot.

Thank you so much for this video! I have struggled with this question for years, and I have come to the same conclusion as you, but you explained it way deeper than I could! and now I'm convinced that I am truly saved! May the Lord Bless you and Keep you!!!
God bless you❤…Jesus send ur video to me ❤️it was for me …I feel it❤️… It is very difficult to overcome sin😞I’m almost discouraged…but God is great…God bless u friend❤
I have also been battling with sin for a while now. I have found that if you keep resisting sin it will eventually go away. ‘’Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” James 4:7
this has blessed me greatly, thankyou brother for shaking me from my slumber. I hope to see you one day on the pleasant shores. God be with you brother
In one of my visitations to hell, Jesus showed me a person who was a Christian (Jesus said “he was a Christian like you”). But the guy unfortunately started sleeping around (1 cor 6:9). He died middle aged and went to hell forever it was dark but Jesus lit up the area, he asked Jesus for another chance but unfortunately it was too late for him, Pretty said, Repent and ask Jesus to help you with your struggles (James 4:7)
You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS. Most people say “Trust and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
Those that ENDURE to the END the same shall be SAVED.... your end or thee end which ever comes first. Be faithful unto death and i shall give you a crown of life Yeshua said.
I love your videos. Everything seems clearer when you explain it with your own words and drawings. Also, you make amazing topics every time, and I think we should all see that particular video because the subject here is frequently asked among Christians. God bless you 🙏❤️🕊 You are a real gift
I have faith that God is good enough and kind enough and gracious enough and big enough and merciful enough to know that I am a mere human being and I do not know as to what I am doing and that there are times when things are so beyond and so out my control that I end up sinning and that he may still forgive me. Not bcz of what I am but bcz of what he is.
You can’t lose what you didn’t earn. We’re sealed with the Holy Spirit and we’re adopted children of God, you must be born again. John 3:3🕊️ Ephesians 1:13💝
It's true you can't 'earn' salvation with works, but our salvation IS contingient on faith. Without it, you aren't saved. You can't 'lose' your salvation, but can you reject it later on? Change your mind? Walk away from it? Of course you can. That's your decision, not God's. He promises to save any and all who put their trust in Jesus. Without that faith (in the end), there is no salvation.
”For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.“ Ephesians 2:8-10 NKJV Faith is a gift of God for those who He has called for his purpose.
"You can't lose what you didn't earn" is not in the Bible. Nor does it say that being sealed with the Holy Spirit is permanent. The bible talks about apostasy, shipwrecking one's faith, falling from grace, being cut off, having one's name blotted out from the book of life, unpardonable sin. Dozens of verses suggest that it must be a present faith, not a one-time decision in the past.
@@coreysparks2311 Very true - and God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentence and put their faith in Jesus the Christ whom He sent. God calls all men. The Holy Spirit draws any who will listen. Jesus told many parables about the fish being caught and sorted at the end. He spoke several times about harvest and the wheat and weeds being brought in then sorted. The blood Jesus spilt on the cross was for all mankind, not just for those who would believe. He died for both of the thieves crucified with him, although only one put his faith and received Him as savior. Jesus offers us the gift of salvation for all of those who believe He is the Son/God incarnate and repent. It's up to us to take/accept it. It's not something to be put in the back of a closet shelf, somewhere in the back only to be retrieved after we die. We take it with us every day of our lives, and we live that faith out as we grow into the person He wants us to be. In the same way we can come to reject that gift of salvation/faith in Him. It's not a contract that God forces us to honor because we 'signed on the dotted line' back when we were a kid. It's a relationship/marriage with Jesus, and we are free to come or go at our choosing.
Revelation 3:5, Jesus' letter to the church in Sardis : " He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels." If your name can be "blotted" out of the Book of Life, it is certain that you can lose your salvation, and face the second death. That is why repentance is importance - as well as understanding that you were bought for a price.
You're doing a wonderful job with this channel. Your deliver is superb. It definitely seems like you're walking a Godly path with this. I really love how you use illustrations as a visual aid rather than record yourself. I just find this to be a really Godly way to present information and demonstrate humility, and it's a refreshing change from the usual stuff I see. It lends your message an air of divine inspiration. Thank you for this. I showed your video about how to be filled with the Holy Spirit to my teenage son and daughter. That should demonstrate how highly I thought of it. Well done!
LUKEWARM CHURCH/ENDTIMES CHURCH The end times church is partly Godly and partly Wordily, so they are fake and go to hell like everyone else who doesn’t believe. Revelation 3: 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither [a]cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.
Yes the illustrations are nice, but you can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS.

The video narrator, like most , refer to Ephesians 2:8-9 and ALWAYS STOP before verse 10 "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10 . We are saved by grace through faith. Then he says we are created for " Good Works and we should walk in them" Since it doesn't fit the narrative the verse is almost always left out. It is disingenuous to purposefully leave out what by inspiration is required.
Romans 6:1-2 KJV What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? [2] God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? What about when the bible talk about when a person backslide going back into a sinful life that the spirit of God leave and that demonic spirit come back with seven more stronger. What about the 7 churches in the book of Revelation which also represent us today God said if you dont fix the things that I don't like I will take my spirit from you And their is plenty more scriptures I urge you people study and don't let man deceive you like the bible say
I truly felt relieved as seeing I used to have the belief and not the faith, but to now see how I've shifted away from that. I still sin as we all do, but I am more aware of my sins and actively try to fight against myself and these urges to resist the temptations I'm feeling. I have succeeded many times resisting some of the sins i truly struggle with from my past life, but sometimes I mess up and cave to the tempation and my bodys urges. I do pray for forgiveness of these sins and and to repent from them, and i understand we will all fall short of the glory of God and can't truly live without sin with our flesh, but I've overcame the thought of doing it and thinking it will be forgiven anyways. This mindset has brought me closer to god not just in prayer but in my readings of his word and I truly do feel that I have the holy spirit within me and I pray and welcome it always.
I have given up my sins Benny. Read Pro 28:13. You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS.

Thank you so much for explaining this ! I was wondering about the salvation and this make it easier for me to understand 😊 Love Jesus is the meaning that we are not trying to commit sin and follow God’s words and obey him, bc we love Jesus and you don’t do things that Jesus won’t like it or disappoint him. It is true love ❤️
The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me. Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul? Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 - like many people who claim that they are a Christian you are also probably not saved yet!!! 2 Corinthians 13:5 - King James Version - 5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? 2 Timothy 2:15 - King James Version - 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing THE WORD OF TRUTH. Ephesians 1:13 - King James Version - 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard THE WORD OF TRUTH, THE GOSPEL OF YOUR SALVATION: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise As ambassadors for Christ we would like to share the gospel of our salvation in the dispensation of God's grace. “Grace can be defined as the undeserved favor of God for people who deserve His condemnation.” God does not hold sins against us because they have already been paid for (every sin for every person.) Christ was made to be everyone's-every-sin (2 Corinthians 5:21). However, full reconciliation is not achieved until an individual "reconciles himself" to God (2 Corinthians 5:20). This happens upon belief of the gospel of our salvation. All humanity is forgiven but not all believe it. Being forgiven does not equal being saved, salvation comes by faith. Salvation is appropriated by faith, forgiveness of sins is NOT. Your sins were forgiven regardless of your belief. God did not need your faith at Calvary, He only needed His Son. SALVATION is only gained by trusting Christ - via belief in the word of truth (the gospel of our salvation.) Salvation IS by works, just not our own. It is not of ourselves, but through the gift of God's grace that we are saved. Upon HEARING the gospel, if we BELIEVE the gospel, we are sealed with the holy Spirit of promise unto the day of redemption (Ephesians 1:13-14). A lost soul can only be saved by trusting Christ to have done everything necessary for our salvation though His finished cross-work. Romans thru Philemon are the only books in the bible that explain salvation for today. In those books we find salvation is by faith alone, in Christ alone, without-any-works-of-any-kind-at-anytime. Christ died for your sins, and has risen for your justification (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) Put your faith in what He did rather than what you have done, are doing, or are going to do. Salvation is not getting-your-sins-forgiven, it's believing they already are. (2 Corinthians 5:19) Salvation comes through faith and trust in Christ ALONE!!! To mix law and grace is to be under the law and you are still in the old covenant (dispensation of the law) and condemnation awaits you. You deny that salvation is by grace alone, many people do not know which side they are on, they claim to be Christians but they go back to the law and still claim that they are doing the works (obeying the law) as part of salvation. People under the law or mixture of law and grace deny that salvation is by grace through faith, they claim that you need works to be saved, being under the law and confusing law and grace will not lead you to inherit the kingdom of heaven. Have a blessed day with insight, wisdom and discernment! Truth Time Radio, also on youtube and facebook, is here to help you better understand your bible and better articulate your faith to others.
I really needed this. The enemy has been twisting scripture toward me the same way he tried to do with Jesus in the wilderness. I don't know if I'm like the prodigal son, or if I never actually knew him until recently. But I do know that God forgives ALL sin.
That's not the enemy twisting scripture my friend, that's the Holy Spirit convicting you of sin. You should obey Him and cut out of your life these sins, and the people around you that cause you to sin. The truth is we must stay out of pig pens, and walk upright all the days of our lives in order to receive the eternal reward of Heaven promised. If we remain in sin, there is no longer a sacrifice for sin but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire.
@@krombopmike5339 I am glad it helped you. Many years ago a similar message helped me. One day I had to finally face the raging sexual sins in my life that i did not want to give up. But once I stopped listening to ministers lying in my ears that "Eternal life" meant we could never lose it, and actually read the scripture for myself, then i finally understood our salvation is CONDITIONAL, and that we must endure till the end in order to get the promise. Only then, did I finally faced the music about these sins and, by the Holy Spirit, jettisoned them from my life. Today I am happily married with 3 kids and have not looked back at the immoral life I lived. And whenever the opportunity presents itself, I will get on these type videos and comment, to warn the flock of these lies and of the truth.
The Holy Spirit changed me 3 weeks ago. Certain things He has taken from my heart and I have no desire to do anymore. However, some things I have free will over such as gossip etc still come in. I do not want to lose this peace and love God has given me ❤️
I was just asking this on Reddit if I could lose God and my salvation I don’t want God to leave me I’m really struggling just coming back to Christ as well as I been asking God about who am I and what are my gifts I found both videos all at once ♥️🙏🏾
John 5:24 ESV Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. The seriousness of salvations transformation is beyond just hearing the gospel. One must admit belief in the contents of the message. It “makes sense” to those who want God. “Has eternal life”. Notice theres no room for decision flip flipping. Its active, obtained, acquired. “has passed from death to life.” Notice the details as to WHAT happened. If we are dead in out trespasses then pass from death to life, can we return to dead in trespasses? Remember, to be unbelieving without salvation you must be hostile and unresponsive to God. If one commits the famous catholic “mortal sin” and loses salvation there MUST be evidence of a radical de-transformation back to how they were. They must BECOME hostile after that stray thought like sexual lust or extreme hostile reactionary anger. They MUST lose spiritual awareness and become bankrupt in hostile unbelief. There is no room for sorrow and brokenness. If you can LOSE the Gift of salvation from an all powerful creator then YOUR actions must be greater than the sacrifice of Christ. YOU must be as powerful as God. Because if you can gain salvation by free will, you can lose it just the same. So lets define what biblical salvation really is. A true regenerate believer who came to the cross broken and contrite in despair and Shame of their sin seeking a savior and his grace will never turned away. So then, the conversion of death to life must be RADICAL, immovable and sustaining outside human thwarted effort. Otherwise our seeking for the HELPER is in vain. We NEED a saviors HELP because OUR human effort falls short alone. Our human will isn’t helping anything. Radical change produces Radical benefit. And radical change comes from Gods effort, not ours. We simply believe and he changes us. Heres reality, you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience, you were BLINDED by the god of this world. But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, MADE us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved- by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is NOT YOUR OWN DOING; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. So, there is no cooperation with Grace. Grace is a gift apart from your actions. You cannot merit Grace. You can ask for it, but inly God gives Grace at his leisure. Therefore if God Saves apart from human will, then God saves for finality. Not temporarily and dependent on your effort to Keep it.
@@islandRT did a HUGE study in this. Feel free to copy and use. Why I am not Catholic, but just catholic. I believe in justification by faith apart from works of the law. Faith alone. The Catholic reaction is “if that were true, then one can sin as much as they want.” Romans 3:28 ESV For we hold that one is justified by faith apart from works of the law. Romans 5:1 ESV Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God THROUGH our Lord Jesus Christ. Justified by faith means permanent peace. “you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience“ ”the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing...” …”In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.” Hostility, blindness and dead attributed to unbelievers. Romans 5:12-13 ESV Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned- [13] for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law. Sin and the law are synonymous. The law answers sin but if the Law is not applicable to action, then sin is not present. Our actions of works and sin are tethered to the law. Our “works” and “works of the law” cannot be categorically separated. The free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many. - what Adam failed to do, Christ fixed. “For if, because of one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the ABUNDANCE of grace and the free GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.” how much Grace??? Whats the Gift? Are we to BECOME righteous by works and reduced sin??? ….”if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW creation. The old has passed away; behold, the NEW has come.” Is the “new” brought on by self action? or spiritual influence? What is the actual “peace” we have with God??? How can we answer the question of sin in those who are renewed and changed? Righteousness - If God is spirit, then true Change is of the heart, not the flesh. We come to God Broken in need of help. So, what is this help? How does it work? “All this is FROM God, who THROUGH Christ reconciled us to himself and GAVE US the ministry of reconciliation;” Notice reconciliation is from God, it’s GIVEN to us through Christ. How? “…in Christ - God was reconciling the world to himself, NOT COUNTING their trespasses (sin) against them, and ENTRUSTING (giving) to us the message of reconciliation.” “Reconciliation” is given to us, and the power of reconciliation defined as sin no longer counted against us. Notice it’s not past trespasses, but All trespasses categorically. So, how did Christ do this? God did something through Christ to reconcile us to God, so that our own efforts were no longer necessary through works of the law to achieve willed standards of holiness. The “works of the law” and “works” general are indistinguishable. Anything you consciously “do” to perfect your self is a “work”. 2 Corinthians 5:21 ESV For our sake he MADE him to be sin who knew no sin, so that IN him we might become the righteousness of God…… “In Christ” is key. If we look at Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are “IN Christ Jesus”. What is “IN CHRIST”? - Galatians 3:26-27 for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through FAITH. [27] For as many of you as were baptized INTO Christ have put on Christ. In Christ is a spiritual change, the heart. How can the ungodly possibly be saved and how can works fit into the scenario of the saved? We’ve established works and works of the law. Read on. Romans 4:4 Now to the one who WORKS, his wages are NOT COUNTED as a gift but as his due. Works outside faith give a due, not salvation. Romans 4:5 And to the one who does NOT WORK but BELIEVES in him who justifies the ungodly, his FAITH is counted as righteousness, "Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not count his sin." There is a implied finished work in Christ not found in cooperative human will. Human will is actually the problem for which we need reconciliation through Christ to make ourselves right with God. Otherwise, all we have is the law and the law demonstrates insufficient by producing a “due” rather than salvation. The blessed man is a man forgiven of his trespasses and sin. He’s forgiven of that which he was dead in and made alive in through Christ death and given reconciliatory imputed righteousness. “So you can be saved and just got murder someone?” Salvation comes with a new spirit indwelling. The spirit causes one to be made alive, mind renewed changed. Does this spirit influence us? Does it cause change or do we “will” change in some cooperative since? John 5:24 - Jesus Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and BELIEVES him who sent me HAS eternal life. He DOES NOT come into judgment, but HAS PASSED from death to life. Notice the finality of this statement. “Has eternal life”. Can someone have eternal life then lose it? “Does not come into judgment but - has passed - from DEATH to LIFE”. Can one pass to life then retrace back and pass back into death? All of scripture shows we are dead in sin, hostile to God and then “made alive”. So then can we be made “dead” again in sin and return to hostility with God? Scripture says NO. The spirit is key. No one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says "Jesus is accursed!" and no one can say "Jesus is Lord" except in the Holy Spirit. Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. The holy spirit compels action. We are not saved then left alone to our self will. Those saved are met with the compelled directions of the spirit. The will of God is impressed upon those spirit filled. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. In Christ we also have the certainty of obedience. Obedience WILL be a trait of the believer. John 14:15 "If you love me, you WILL keep my commandments. Did he say you can keep? Is it optional? No, he said you WILL keep. Look further… John 14:23 Jesus answered him, "If anyone loves me, he WILL keep my word, and my Father WILL love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. Christ reconciles us to the Father for this benefit. Even when we were dead in our trespasses, he made us alive together with Christ-For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is NOT YOUR own doing; it is the GIFT of God, [9] not a result of works, so that no one may boast. What saves? Through what??? Are these related to you in any way??? Its a GIFT so that we cannot Boast. Meaning we cannot claim cooperative works as credit for salvation. Its ALL God through Faith alone and as demonstrates above, faith alone produces saving faith which produced compelled behavior. Works are a result, not “with”. Now for certainty of Salvation. Romans 8:38-39 - For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, [39] nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Since the Love of Christ is the result of our live for him, this regards salvation. Can anything remove salvation??? Some argue your will can. But as ive argued, self will plays no role in becoming saved. And notice the last categorical statement “nor anything else in all creation”. Last i checked, we are apart of creation. Therefore NOTHING can undo or remove salvation. Premised correctly, salvation is a radical mind altering spirit filled change of permanency with a new spirit causing compelled action. We pass from death to life. Hostility to love. And SIN of all minds are reconciled by Christ to the father through his death and resurrection. And we gave the promise of eternal life AND sanctification completion before we die. Philippians 1:6 ESV And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. The classic hymn applies. “I have decided…to follow Jesus. No turning back…no turning back” Like the apostles, radical change produces radical Life. No turning back. If you’ve made it this far, congratulations and thank you for taking the time to read. If this has given, you pause as a Catholic, the general Catholic response to that which they cannot explain, is “the church was started by Jesus, the Roman Catholic Church is the one true church, therefore, what they say, is all that matters.” The spirit of God will not let a regenerant believer fall into the trap of unilateral Unfounded claims based on “because the church said so”. No ones theology should be built upon blind faith. Only those blinded by the god of this world are blinded to the reality of God. If your conscience urges you one way and your church demands under threat of anathema another way - without evidence, follow your conscience and work out your salvation with fear and trembling.

Such an important topic. Thanks for covering this and may we always examine ourselves and work OUT our salvation.☺️ God bless your ministry as always Team Impact.
@@ImpactVideoMinistries While this video is very well made, I cannot upvote it because: 1. The term "saved" was never defined. Some people take it to mean to have their sins washed away, while others take it to mean to be able to enter the New Jerusalem and live forever. 2. The fact that some people will have their names "blotted out" of the Lamb's Book of Life (Revelation 3:5) makes this issue much clearer, but that wasn't covered either.
@@earlysdaThere's a theory that in the beginning everyone's name is written on the book of life , but those who are filthy and produce disgusting works, their names are blotted out.
John 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life and they shall never perish neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My friend when you believe in Jesus for salvation you cannot lose it.or it was not eternal and you could perish and your saying Jesus lied and can lose you. God bless you. Grace Evangelical Society is a great place too learn about the bible etc....
@user-fh4zj1no9r Never base your doctrine on cherry picked scriptures. All scripture is God breathed. I can easily counter your cherry-picked verse with cherry picked verses of my own. For example. Jesus"...you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. Matt 24 and, "Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off. 23 And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. 24 After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree! Romans 11
@@bobaom I am afraid that's what you are doing. John is all about how to be saved. You either don't except Jesus or you do. Jesus did all the work for us so we can be justified before God. Deweychapa needs to know you can't lose salvation per the scriptures. Thank you for attacking me as our attack lays up treasures in heaven for me. I forgive you and my God bless you
True! If you 'give up' by doubting the Grace of GOD through JESUS. That is, through unbelief. You start trying again to earn your salvation through your works and you go back to your former state! This can happen due to so many false doctrines around that one takes heed and pays attention to instead of trusting in CHRIST alone. Galatians 5:4 And even when you do, GOD will still save you and draw you to HIMSELF if you surrender all again and trust in HIM again. Speaking based on experience though and on the WORD of GOD at work in me! Thanks!

If you're reading this, just know, you'll get through this, just keep trying. It will get better I promise. Just try a little bit harder each time. You have God's grace inside you, let God give you the strength you need. You Will Overcome this.
Although you can't lose salvation you can give it up which is exactly what the adversary is hoping we do I've seen many people give up thier salvation and it's a pity
In one of my visitations to hell, Jesus showed me a person who was a Christian (Jesus said “he was a Christian like you”). But the guy unfortunately started sleeping around (1 cor 6:9). He died middle aged and went to hell forever it was dark but Jesus lit up the area, he asked Jesus for another chance but unfortunately it was too late for him, Pretty said, Repent and ask Jesus to help you with your struggles (James 4:7)
You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS. Most people say “Trust and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
Bravo sir, excellent breakdown as always. I've certainly presumed on God's grace, and still struggle to not do that. So, thought #3 was quite accurate and relevant, and we do reap what we sow, even as we are forgiven by faith.
I burst into tears on thought number 5. You'll probably never know just how much of an impact you had for The Kingdom. I hope to talk to you one day in Heaven, heart to heart.

You must be born again. I was once like you a slave to sin, a Romans 7 wretch and I thought I was a Christian until I surrendered all and was freed from porn and all mine idols! Romans 8! Jesus can do the same for you but you must trust in His words of eternal life and OBEY by cutting off everything that causes you to sin and then in obedience He will give you the power of His Holy Spirit to overcome all temptation and live a holy, pure life unto eternity! Hebrews 5:9, 1 John 3:9, Psalm 37:27, Matthew 5:48. Seek the Lord with ALL your heart, forsake all your sin and live for Him, He is worthy! James 1:12, God bless you, turn to Jesus with your whole heart!

Please don't be a fake Christian in the end times Church People underestimate hell, it is bad because it is separation from God. In a vision I was shown a perron who claimed to be Christian but started fornication (premarital sex), He died relatively young and went to hell forever (1 Cor 6:9). God’s holiness means He will not coexist with sinners forever therefore Repent (Luke 13:3) and have a relationship with Jesus.
I love you Jesus I give everything I have I put all my faith in you and believe you are my lord and savior. I repent from my sins live for you. Lord cleanse me with your blood. I beg you for forgiveness of my sins. I promise to spread your word and pray daily In Jesus all powerful and mighty name amen.

What about when the bible talk about when a person backslide going back into a sinful life that the spirit of God leave and that demonic spirit come back with seven more stronger. What about the 7 churches in the book of Revelation which also represent us today God said if you dont fix the things that I don't like I will take my spirit from you And their is plenty more scriptures I urge you people study and don't let man deceive you like the bible say

Amazing how much double talking he’s doing in this video. Saved by grace BUT you need works which cancels grace. 🤦♂️💀 gEnUinE FaItH tHaT rEQuIres WoRkS.💀
The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me. Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul? Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
7:46. It was actually implied in the Bible that Jesus knew that Judas was gonna betray him. There is also the fact that Jesus and God, who is all-knowing, are the same.
I never knew this conversation existed till I got to college and I grew up with Jesus my whole life. My ultimate takeaway prior to and even after watching this video remains the same. That is, this is an important conversation among fellow believers, but a conversation of secondary importance. But still important and valuable lol. The main important thing is to love God by obeying His commandments, accepting His Son Jesus as Lord/Savior, having the Holy Spirit be our eternal Helper and spread His Gospel to all. God will judge accordingly/fairly and hopefully we approach Him with a genuine heart, eternal repentent posture(meaning to just turn away from our wrongs by confession and asking for help) and live each day to make Him known. I personally aim to walk with confidence that if this would be the last day, I feel good being with God because of accepting Jesus Christ as Lord/Savior, and also with fear that there's more to do as long as I breathe and live. So the shorter answer now, I dont think we lose salvation, but I also don't wanna flirt around with a sinful lifestyle to find out lol. So I think I agree with you on many points here and hope we all come to God with love and repentance daily. He's worth it guys and giving Him ours lives with make our life eternal with a life better than we can ever imagine. Better than whatever we may think is the best thing ever 🙏🏾. Thanks for the content as always and sorry to the audience for the long winded response/essay 😅😅😅. As ya can probably tell, this is an exciting topic lol. Love to all and enjoy using ya gifts, talents and treasures for God's glory. May you have joy, peace that surpasses all understand and eternity with God forever here and in the next life in Jesus name. Keep up the awesome content Impact team! ❤️🙏🏾🤙🏾

@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 I appreciate your comment. I hope we all navigate life with a healthy fear and urgency to spread His Word. My last hope comment/prayer for those reading is that I hope we (myself included) begin to soften our hearts and be excited in spite of whereever we are in life to be with God forever. A mind/soul posture that is more excited to be with God forever than to have fear of being away from Him forever in Hell. There is 100% many things I still want to do and achieve on this side of life and hope to (unless Jesus comes first lol), but I pray being with God here and forever with our fam, friends and loved ones would be the priority. Again thanks for your comment and God bless you all, Jesus loves you and wants to change your life daily!
We are saved by faith alone not by repenting of sin. Trust in Jesus, not in your works. Jonah 3:10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not. This proves that turning from evil way/turning from sin is works and we are not saved by works, only by faith. In this same verse, we see God repents, which proves that it can't mean turning from sin because if it did how could God repent? You bring up James 2 which says faith without works is dead, but James 2 has nothing to do with salvation and is talking about our faith being profitable to others, why else do you think he repeatedly says "What doth it profit?" Here is a video that explains James 2 in full context: th-cam.com/video/usCuIboBxgI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Nm6t2dFmAt5tCjrn More proof that salvation is by faith alone is that repent doesn't even mean turning from sin it means change your mind. The Bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek, with some Aramaic. Translate the word repent to Greek and Hebrew and it clearly says it means a change of mind, so when Jesus says to repent and believe he is saying to change your mind from unbelief to belief. You may ask, if salvation is by faith alone then what makes us different from demons because they believe too well here is the difference, demons may believe but they certainly do not put their faith in Jesus, faith means trust, we believe in and trust in Jesus Christ as our lord and savior, and in his promise that anyone who believes in him shall be saved. Another thing to consider is, did Jesus promise demons and satan that they would be saved by believing? No, he made that promise to us, so I don't know why you're applying that to demons to try and say that salvation isn't by faith alone. I hope that this message touched your heart because I am telling you this out of love that you will not be deceived by the false gospel of turn from sin to be saved. I pray you come to the truth, God bless you and Jesus loves you.

Salvation through faith BY grace. Our belief alone is a gift in and of itself is how I always interpreted Scripture. This video is a good reminder on what to meditate on, the immeasurable cost of what it took for us to be saved, the precious blood of Christ.
All Humans need to repent & Believe in Jesus as their God. Why? Because all Humans have sinned (lied, lusted sexually, stolen, dishonoured parents etc). Avoid the fires of Hell (justice of God) and choose Heaven today. Jesus defeated death by rising from the dead. GOD IS HOLY

Christ said "go and sin no more." Keep the saving faith that works, you have to do it every day until you die. Faith in God's plan of salvation. Live it every day, do it every day. You can lose your salvation if you give up.
So, if we could lose our salvation in the first place, then why did Christ do what He did? This verse here says, Ephesians 2:8-9: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and not of yourselves: it is the gift of God, not by works lest any man should boast. Should we strive to live like Christ? Yes, absolutely. But since we’re still in the sinful nature we are going to sin. It happens, we’re not perfect and God knows that. That’s why he sent His son to die for all of our sins, past, present and future. All you have to do is believe, we can’t do this on our own that’s why Jesus did what he did. 1 Corinthians 15: 1-4 states, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” I hope this clarifies it for you. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask me. God bless!
Rev 2:10 Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life. Revelation 2:10 ESV. Question, are people in this church in danger of losing their salvation?
@@minorsingingairhead Yeah, because I'm Catholic. This is also the Orthodox. In fact, this was all of Christianity until Protestants got the idea they were the first to actually read AND understand the Bible and came up with the faith alone trash.
Keep the faith 🩸 Romans 3 KJV 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; Romans 4 KJV 5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Yes. Hebrews 10:26. We can not be sinless but we can strive to sin less. We do not repent to and grow in faith to get saved but because we are saved. We do not produce works to get saved but to show we r saved by faith. Faith produces works and fruit. Repent and trust in Jesus
This is very true! Jesus has established a Kingdom that is upside down from the way the world thinks! Here we don't do good because we want to be saved but because we have already been saved!
Hebrews 10:26 "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins"
you can claim to know God and sin. again the payment is only done once Jesus won't come back to die again, once he comes back again there's no more time for any repentance and it will be too late.
Don't merely think you can't be sinless the the Holy spirit is greater than this he is infinite and personal he will bear fruit. and will not leave his work abandoned and unfinished. some made it to the promised land yes but there are some who don't even moses who only caught a glimpse but if you faithly walk with the spirit I know for certain God will deliever you to that promised land. so don't merely think being a sinner is your end destination.
Hebrews 10:26 is taken out of context, it’s about Jews who have heard about Jesus’ sacrifice, but are going back to the old ways of the law, relying on sacrifices of animals, that’s why if they reject what Jesus did, and continue those animals sacrifices, it won’t save them, there sins won’t be forgiven, Which is why it says For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins. If they keep on sinning after knowing what Jesus did p, those sacrifices of animals no longer remains.
Never loose our salvation
yes you can be sinless all through the holy spirit! he bears many more gifts aswell! people limit him by believing that he only does certain things!@@user-qb9pf5jo6l
Hello, just wanted to comment here, if no-one sees this, but I am going through a journey of sorts and got lost. I think my Father wanted me to see this video, as I felt earlier today that I had been lost. Please, if anyone sees this, please pray for me. It is a bit of a selfish request, but I am afraid, and wish my heart to not be filled with fear.
Thank you kindly, and God be with you all.
Here is a verse/prayer for you to study: “The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. O LORD, Your loving devotion endures forever--do not abandon the works of Your hands.”-Psalm 138:8
It doesn't matter how lost you are you can still find your way back to God
yes, i will pray for you after this comment, my friend, Go to God, seek him, and you will find him, James 4:7-10 "submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will Come near to you. wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up."
I’ll pray for you ❤

But you also need to repent and ask God for deliverance, as intrusive thoughts is entertained by demons.
@@HumbleServant-uy9xe yes of course!
If the thoughts seek to divide you from God; they are surely from unclean spirits. Those truly born again walk in grace of God (and God helps us stay there). Jesus said those who love him will keep his commandments. If you find yourself not doing sins you lived in before that is surely a good sign. If you thirst for God and closer relationship it is surely a good sign :) None of the followers of God were perfect. All fell short. We must not react as one such as Cain who fled God when he sinned, rather we should be like David who threw himself at God's feet when he sinned in true repentance.
Jesus saw every sin u were ever gonna commit, saved or unsaved, and still chose to save u. It’s not about us, it’s entirely about him and what he did on the cross.
Edit: a lot of people are misinterpreting what I’m saying. We must believe and trust what he did on the cross, and not our works. I was in no way meaning that this is a gift passed to those who don’t believe. We must accept the gift to receive it.
And its about you for repentance and obedience to the Lord
Amen 🙏🙌❤
yes but we gotta accept his gift, if we reject him and don't want him then he isn't gonna force us to go to heaven, we gotta repent and truly trust in Christ
Thanks for this, God bless you RealTroy3
@@Holden-uf7 it’s not at all about obedience. Saying u need to do something as well is saying that what Christ did isn’t good enough.

@@aarizshaikh9724 Such a peaceful religion.
@@aarizshaikh9724 I'm quite aware of the tale that 'Allah' was a deceiver of billions of people for around two thousand years about who was on that cross. Fortunately, the actual Lord is not such a liar but the judge who stepped down to pay the fine of sin, that being death, out of love on that very cross. Likewise, Jesus was no mere prophet (nor did he speak from the crib) but the Word; who was with and *is* God.
When I was about 12 years old, my dad had taken a very active role in mentoring me in my faith and walk with God. We had long and frequent discussions and were very open and honest with each other, even talking about our deepest and most secret sins, fears, regrets, etc. One Sunday, as church was starting, dad scooted past me in my seat to get to his and he whispered to me "are you sorry?" I quickly said yes. He asked "are you sure?" That one question, so simple but it hit me like a truck. That made me question EVERYTHING in life, made me question everything about myself. It forced me to be brutally honest with myself and deal with some very hard and scary truths. Sometimes, we Christians aren't as remorseful as we should be. We don't always repent as often or earnestly as we should. Sometimes, we lie to ourselves, and if we can't be honest with ourselves, we can't be honest with God. That one question from my dad is probably the most powerful question anyone has ever asked me and it has helped me grow as a person and as a child of God.
thank you for sharing that😊
@MrHoll87 I love that personal example you shared, and how that affected your life.
BLOT OUT
The bible warns that some will depart from the faith in the latter days ( you can’t fall away/de[art unless you were a part of it to begin with). The Bible warns about Backsliding (you can’t back slide if you didn’t slide forward to begin with). Also, there is reference to people’s name being blot of the book of life (your name can’t be blot out unless it was written first).
Sorry I don't really understand what he meant by that. Was it like during a prayer of confession?
@@the.seagull.35 No need to be sorry. He had been teaching me a lot about sin and forgiveness, so when he asked if I was sorry, he was referring to sin. He was asking if I truly regret my mistakes and my sins and if I was truly repentant. When I said yes too fast, he asked if I was sure. He wanted me to be completely open and honest with myself. Hope that helps explain it better. :)
The worst thing that can ever happen to anyone is hearing Jesus say, “ I never knew you “! I don’t want to think once I’m saved I’m always saved for the fact that I don’t want to get comfortable in any way when I sin. I repent, ask for forgiveness and ask Holy Spirit to help me never to do that again. I know I’m forgiven. That’s my thoughts. That’s how I feel. We are all different. So whether you believe or not that’s between you and Jesus. Don’t get comfortable in your sin. ❤
Thank you everyone for your comments but I hate sin. I know that Jesus’s Blood washed away every sin when I was born again, I know this but I love Him too much to sin and not apologize for it! Please, I get what you’re saying and try to hear me too.
Peace be with you Friend ❤️
Indeed, if we get comfortable in our sin, then we are Not Saved.
2 Timothy 2:19 KJV
[19] Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, *Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.*
1 John 1:6-7 KJV
[6] If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: [7] but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Salvation is by the blood Jesus shed and rising on the 3rd day. It's not by anything we did or do. Yea we are to strive not to sin but God doesn't take away our salvation. God says he will never forsake us and no one can pluck us from his hand. The people that God will tell them he never knew them were never Christians to begin with. If you truly believe in your heart about God you have nothing to worry about as far as salvation. People still sin after being saved because the flesh is still sinful. It's a constant struggle. Satan wants people to doubt their salvation. Do you really think God wants you to feel doubt about him and his power to save? Scripture says when you are saved he forgives past, present and future sins. God has feelings. It probably hurts his feelings when people doubt their salvation. God wants his children to feel secure. Satan is who creates doubt.
This statement is something I’m so scared for! Working towards being righteous everyday, but everyday I always do something to make me one step father from him. My friend told me that the closer I try to get to know God and get close to him the more Satan attacks and it’s real!
@@Ellie46706 did you not read any of my comments concerning this? If you are scared you are either listening to the devil or else you don't believe in God. If you don't believe in God you would have reason to worry. If you really believe in God why are you scared? The bible says if God is for you, then who can be against you. Satan doesn't have the power to take anyone's salvation away. And God doesn't go back on His word and take away his promises. You need to go read John 3:16. Do you really believe what it says? If you really believe in your heart what it says why are you doubting your salvation. I would think it hurts God's feelings for those that say they doubt their salvation. Stop listening to these false preachers trying to mess with your mind. The devil is using them to try and mess with believers. If you are truly a believer, then BELIEVE. Put your trust and confidence in Him. Don't doubt God. Satan wants people to live in fear
@@Daniel_Godismyjudge--Isah33.22 that's not true for a born again Christian. Once a person believes as it says in John 3 16 all sins are forgiven past present and future. The only ones unsaved are unbelievers. When a believer sins they are still believers. They haven't lost salvation..saying a person can lose salvation in not scriptural. Trying to create doubt about one's salvation is the work of the devil.
This video appeared to me after I sinned, I don't think it was an accident thank you for putting stuff out like this! God bless you
You can thank the good ol TH-cam algorithm for that.
ur always saved
For anyone, praying this all helps. If there’s any “ammo” here that’s either wanted or needed, go for it. As Scripture implies, “Freely you have received, freely give”:
One is either in Jesus (100% forgiven - “Sheep”) or in Adam (0% forgiven - “Goats”). There is no such thing as a “Geep” - No one is ever “50% forgiven” (John 5:24, Colossians 2:13-15, Hebrews 10:14, 2 Peter 1:3-4, 1 John 2:12, etc.). Both testaments are blood economies but this new one is permanent. There will never again be another Calvary or Resurrection. No need. They were effective the first time.
(Lest anyone forget that everything, including all of the laws in the Old Testament point to the message of the cross in the New Testament. When Jesus fulfilled all 613 rules of that Mosaic Law (or “Torah”) thing, He rendered it obsolete. That “Mosaic Law” includes the Ten Commandments brought down from Mount Sinai by Moses as well as everything mentioned by the O.T. prophets (Matthew 5:17-20 -- He didn’t ABOLISH any of it but rather FULFILLED all of it.) That "Mosaic Law" stuff is all but a type and shadow of what Christianity is all about here in the A.D. Era through Jesus.
Actually ..the same here. Did something pretty bad a few days ago. Some things are not by coincidence.
The Lord wanted you to see it❤️
I had saving faith but still succumbed to temptation and bathed in the tub of sin. I paid a high penalty but received God's grace to not be struck down in my sin. That was a decade or so ago. I've since repented and turned 100% to the Lord. Praise God for His mercy!
BLOT OUT
The bible warns that some will depart from the faith in the latter days ( you can’t fall away/de[art unless you were a part of it to begin with). The Bible warns about Backsliding (you can’t back slide if you didn’t slide forward to begin with). Also, there is reference to people’s name being blot of the book of life (your name can’t be blot out unless it was written first).
Yep, the consequences alone make it not worth it. Paid some heavy prices myself.
You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! Most people say “Trusting and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 Yeah, that reasoning is hard to argue with and it's the big problem with once saved always saved ideas. It has no way to explain passages that talk about people being blotted out.
@@dman7668 I would think they were never truly saved or born again of the Spirit to begin with (such as Judas). Had some discussions with friends about it and we all have varying opinions. How can you lose the Spirit once He indwells you? He doesn't leave just because you sin again. So that is why I believe that once He comes to you, you are saved and sealed forever. Goes along with election and predestination also, which a lot of people do not like. Guess we will all find out one day but I do trust my Lord.

Trust in Jesus and keep your eyes on him always. You will struggle. You will walk through times of not feeling close to God. You will be tempted. Even so; Jesus said "Take heart for I have overcome the world" Do as another said; read the word daily even if only a paragraph. Pray at least daily, I prefer heart to heart as honest as possible and personal to God. Stay humble before God. Strive to get to know him better and your love and trust will grow. You never truly walk alone in Christ.

When I hear people say you can lose your salvation, their saying Jesus shed his blood for nothing.
Jesus paid the ultimate price for each of us. Its a gift you can accept or deny.

Where people get the idea that salvation is something automatic when following men's commandments is beyond the limit of proper understanding. When Yeshua died on the cross it was as the Passover Lamb of God for His people, Israel. Upon His resurrection He opened the door so all could be grafted to Israel if they follow the house rules. Many believe that after His sacrifice the Jews have now been replaced and now all you need to do is follow a self proclaimed Christian denomination and do all they say and you are saved. That is extremely far away from the Truth. One good example is people believing they can decide to make changes to His laws and commandments. Sunday is not God's Shabbat, the reality is saturday is and not any other day of the week. The Catholics have eleminated the 2nd commandment and split the 10th into two to compensate; that is not GOD's law that is men's idea of it. No one can force God to give him, or her something. He decides who is worthy and will render His decision on Judgement Day and not before.
Literally last night, I was praying about this same topic. I was worried that I am no longer saved. Thank you!

When you think you are no longer saved, probably you were.
Romans 6:1-2 KJV
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? [2] God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
What about when the bible talk about when a person backslide going back into a sinful life that the spirit of God leave and that demonic spirit come back with seven more stronger.
What about the 7 churches in the book of Revelation which also represent us today God said if you dont fix the things that I don't like I will take my spirit from you
And their is plenty more scriptures I urge you people study and don't let man deceive you like the bible say
"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9. Notice especially the word "ALL" and then believe the verse.

A tip that might work
"How do i exercise my faith?"
Try to write down everything that God did for you, even the smallest things (i took this tip from a video) and then when you feel discourage or feel like giving up (to sin or your christian life) read everything you writed, and worship God even if you feel like the world is going to fall down your head, pray and fast too, exercise your faith feeling confident in something like the video says, for example: you studied really hard for a exam, but you feel like you're not going to pass it, pray there and know that God is with you and you can pass the exam with God's help (this only applies if you REALLY studied). Another example is that you are going home and it's dark(night) and you know that someone can attack you in the middle of the night, pray and remember that God is with you, there's a bible verse about that but i didn't memorize it (put the verse in the comments if you can please 😢) then nobody can hurt you when you know you're with God, this is just a tip, i didn't try it, however i want to practice it, so you can do diferent simulations in your mind were they feel imposible for you to pass, and then remember God is with you.

Hello just an update. with a help of our believer friend, she's continuously coming to sunday services now since last month. It started when she opened up the pain she experience after our mom died and the struggles she experienced in life then leading us to a topic about faith and Jesus. I realized that she was just hurt and felt unfavored and forgotten by God. after that, it was the first time in years that she asked me to lead a prayer. Within a week, just a few days after that, she was hired in a job she wanted after being unemployed for more than a year. the great thing is its a Christian company where all staff are co believers with a nontoxic work environment. My sister told me she felt like God was reaching out to her. She began going to church and attending some activities. we see that shes slowly trying to go back. many of our christian friends are still praying for her and I am so grateful to God for not giving up on her and the good things He has done. Thank you for your kind words🙂
I am in the same boat as your sister. I knew I was in the faith and had the word in my heart, and I myself backslid grieved God and now I have suicidal tendencys and I no what I did.

The people who hear the law also believe in the messiah to save them, and the moment they believe him and accept it, they are doing the will of God and are doers. Not just passive hearers who listens but dont accept. How can you read the whole bible which states by faith alone? what the law could not do for us because of the weakness of the flesh, God did by sending his own son to save us.

When he says justified you have to ask yourself, justified by what? And if you read in context in turns out that james is talking about being justified in mens sight. He uses abraham as a example. Later on james clarifies that abraham was in the end also justified by faith alone. Dude are you crazy in the head? The bible crystal clearly says its not about works! And logically. The burdens of the law was never there to justify us because of our weakness. The law was there as a schoolmaster to show us how badly we need christ. You think he died for you to prove yourself with works? Now before you say it. No im not taking a reason to sin. Doing good works is great! But when it comes doing to for salvation, you go into the red zone. You also disrespect Jesus and call is work unsufficient or a "unholy thing"
Here are some verse that clearly state that its not by having a good lifestyle here in the flesh to be saved.
Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
Titus 3:5 He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to his mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the holy spirit.
Ephesians 1:13-14
In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation-having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view to the redemption of God's own possession, to the praise of His glory.
Romans 8:3
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh.
Acts 16:30 and brought them out, and said, sirs, what must i do yo be saved? And they said, BELIEVE on thr Lord Jesus Christ, and though shalt be saved, and thy house
Jesus said,"most certainly i tell yoy, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesent come into judgement, but has passed out of death inti life (John 5:24)
Jesus said to them "i am the bread of life. Whoever come to me will not be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty" (John 6:35)
Were does it say the sheep have to have works to prove your faith for salavtion? your desperate! pulling calvanistics things out of the blue. Where does it say we have to prove our self if we are saved? And
Dont you start to make up different types of works to try to tell me some saves you. Mans only part is to believe. If you want to know the will of God just read john 6.40
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Dude let go, and let christ rule. Jesus knows your heart and if you think bribing God with good works is going to cut it. Think twice and thrice. If you love earning salvation so much, why not be a muslim, they have that system. Better then you coming here and beatinf the sheep and commenting damning doctrine. You are causing division and confusing new believers and putting burdens on them. You let them wonder if they are truly saved or not, because you put tasks on them, and they start to walk in the flesh and old law, Instead of the spirit and grace. You better stop what you are doing and repent from your pharisee type thinking. I say this with Reverence and love.
@@dman7668False doctrine
Whenever I mess up, I remember Jesus lifting Peter out of the water. He asked Jesus to call him out, and Jesus did; however, he sunk because he looked away and got frightened. I often ask God to help me never look at porn again, and He does as I feel His quiet convictions. However, when I fail, it's because of my own doing. He did answer my prayer, as He promised He would, and it's my own looking away that caused it to fail. Peter looked away because of fear, we may look away because of lust or anger or greed, but that doesn't mean Jesus never answered our prayer in the first place. HOWEVER when Peter asked for Him to save him, Jesus again obliged. He will do the same for us. I hope someone who needed this might see it
Oh wow. I was seriously addicted to porn until I was saved. Jesus healed my addiction but there are days when I stumble and look at porn. The worst part is that every time I stumble I could have easily avoided it. I don't get that overwhelming urge to look at porn all day and every day but for some reason I still get myself into those situations like an idiot every once in a blue moon. I feel so bad for doing it. I'm re- igniting an old habit that should have died and for what? All it does is make me feel guilty, doubtful of my salvation and afraid to pray and talk to God which in turn causes me to backslide more. I relate to your comment quite a bit.
I'm so happy for you guys, hold on, God is with us and He'll never let us down
I too am suffering with the lust of the flesh... even after I vowed never to do it again, I still gave in. Like another comment said "..We can't be sinless, but we can strive to sin less." I believe that if we put our full faith in God we can let this cruel addiction go. Lust is worse than the worst drug. We cannot be slaves to the calling of the lusting flesh, so let us fulfill our promise to the Lord to never indulge in this horrible sinful act again. Amen my brethren🙏✝️. #NoFap
@@georgiosgiannoukas3319As a female I can't fully relate to this, but I can relate to it somewhat. Lust of the flesh and desire for evil things has always been in my life. I continue to give in and feel guilty every time. I feel like a great Christian and then when I do the sin I feel so evil and awful. It does not feel good but I hope Jesus can save me. I don't have the strongest relationship with Jesus but I want one. :(
I feel what you're going through i really backsliding with a similar addiction. But I think this scripture says it all Romans 7:15 For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Sin is a opportunist it waits for you to get comfortable so it can creep in. But we all must do what Paul told us to do. Fight the Good Fight
I had been sinning willfully and I have been so afraid that my heart may have been hardened and I had lost my chance at salvation....thanks for the video
Your heart hardens when you don’t repent. If you don’t have a desire to repent then you’re hardened
If you are truly ready to be free from sin, let me know and we can go through some scripture.
When I say free,
I truly mean free.
You will never sin again.

Casey if you are saved just pray to God and confess your sins to him then leave all your sins at the cross..
Don't believe what ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED people say..
Revelation 2:5 Jesus said that he will remove your candle for disobedience.. Start asking God for forgiveness everyday for sins you know that you commit and the ones that you don't know also..
In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus teaches the disciples how to pray. He recites the LORD'S PRAYER...
In it he says ""forgive our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us... Trespass is Sin...

Lord thank you for this video. I really needed to hear this, I'm 15 and ever since school started back up after the covid-19 pandemic ended I've been scared to repent and so depressed and eventually wasn't repenting for weeks or months or even days. "I just dont want to keep grieving the holy spirit, I'm tired of being a disappointment to the lord, if I serve him then I should continue to be obedient towards him!" That's what I said, but I was trying to do it all on my own and didn't realize it. For 2 years I was in darkness, but I just knew this isn't how a man of God should be living! So once 9th grade ended I used my summer time and continued reading the bible and praying. In that time of darkness for a 2 years I always told myself "a life without God is no life for me at all" and it really isn't! I just cant live without Jesus.😭
Amen! Push on with faith in Jesus my brother in Christ!

Same and im 15 also :)
I’ve been having such intense fear over my salvation and whether it’s true. However, I remember the confidence I had at Baptism when asked if I had accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior and it encourages me. I look back at my life before Christ and look at my life now and I’m gradually fighting or putting to bed old sins. I’m proud to say I’m working on getting better from sinful sexual stuff (by the Grace of God!!). I know that the enemy can plant thoughts and doubts and fears in our minds so I don’t know if my anxiety over my salvation is from him or not. Either way, I want to spend eternity with God.
I can relate. I don't do all the "ritualistic" stuff like going to church but I do believe. And correct me if I'm wrong, but what I always come back to is that I shouldn't be so dang stressed about it, because that's like being legalistic and trying to keep the Law. We're not under the Law anymore, and we never COULD live up to the Law. The Law is there to show us that we can't live up to its lofty standards. So whenever I'm in doubt, I always try to remember that if we could do it all, we wouldn't need Jesus, we wouldn't need a savior. We would be able to enter Heaven based on our deeds/works; not by faith. Every time I feel like I'm not living according to a standard that someone else says (including Christians), I think back on this. How we're not under the Law. And I think it's actually very judgmental for Christians to judge other Christians' faith/salvation status based on what they see in that person. We are constantly being sanctified. We are justified once (legally pardoned, by the Blood of Jesus), but are being sanctified (repenting of our sins) throughout our lifetime. Like a marriage. You start the marriage (justification), but are then married for life (continual sanctification). Now of course we shouldn't abuse God's grace. If we WANT to sin and don't want to repent, THEN we are not saved. But we are still imperfect even after being saved. Remember what Paul said:
Romans 7:19-25 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do-this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.
Paul was in agony of doing what he does NOT want to do (which is sinning). But he never considered himself unsaved like some are suggesting.
And we can't forget about the criminal on the cross to whom Jesus said "I assure you, today you will be with Me in paradise."
He couldn't have had works. All he did was called Jesus 'Lord' and asked to remember him when Jesus enters His kingdom.
Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
I've heard that many atheists pray to God on their death beds!
From what I understand, works don't save us, but they are "evidence" or proof of our salvation. But in the end, only God can truly know our hearts. It's all about our attitude towards sin. We don't just ask God to forgive us of our sins, we acknowledge that it is sin and ask God to change our minds and hearts. When we fall and stumble, the bible says:
Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Yes we should feel ashamed for sinning, but we can also BOLDLY come to God seeking mercy.
I also want to reiterate this passage, about putting on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18). It speaks about taking up the Shield of Faith, to extinguish the flaming arrows of Satan. Satan will try to convince us that we are fake, phony Christians. He's a liar and deceiver. Satan wants us to doubt our salvation. We do NOT put our faith in ourselves, in our works or even in our own Faith (if that makes sense). Our Faith is in what God's word says, for his word is Truth. We're fully trusting what God says is our salvation. Another armor piece is the Breastplate of Righteousness. This one personally speaks to me. Remember, the bible says:
Isaiah 64:6(a) All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags
The point is, even if you were like Paul, who says he could boast because as a Pharisee, he kept the law (Phillipians 3:9). Even Paul couldn't boast about keeping the Law.
Even the most godly pastor on earth could not earn his way into heaven! Because their "righteous works" are like "filthy rags", which literally translates to a woman's bloody period cloth.
Our good works is stained too much by sin to be considered clean. We are saved because Jesus was righteous. Not our own righteousness (works).
I'm sorry for the long essay; I guess that was the Holy Spirit leading me to post this.
@@kitten1591 you’re fine! Thank you for the reply. I do also deal with a lot of mental illness, which the enemy certainly used to his advantage. The intrusive thoughts that he plants and tries to trick me into believing they’re my own and that I believe them (these thoughts are vile and then send me into a panic attack). I guess part of my problem is that I’m so self critical to the point that I find it hard to believe God, who is Holy and righteous, would even want to forgive someone like me. But then I have to remember that it’s not about me, it’s never been about me. Its always been about Jesus, and He loved me back when I was doing worse things and saved me, He’ll still save me from myself today when I do believe in Him. Nothing can pluck us from the palm of His hand, He is the good shepherd.
@@Cryptid.Corvid Amen! That is exactly why God is so worthy and deserving of our worship. God, as you said Who is holy and righteous, could have sent us all to hell, could have NOT spared Noah and his family and started a new 'Adam and Eve', but He didn't! He is holy and righteous, but He is also Love (1John 4:8). God made a provision, a way to reconcile us back to Him. God doesn't forgive you or me for any other reason than because of Jesus' blood. Without that, we were doomed.
Also, God knew before you were even born, before even the Foundations of the Earth, God knew you. He thought of you. And He knew all the sins you (and I) would commit. Even back then, God knew we would sin but in His mercy and love, made a Way (Jesus is THE Way) to bring us back into Righteous standing and relationship with Him. So even though we don't feel like we should be forgiven, God forgives us because of the Cross.
1Jhon 2:1-2 My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father - Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.
Revelation 12:10(b) ...For the accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accuses them before our God day and night...
Satan loves to condemn us and make us feel like we cannot (or should not) be forgiven. He even accuses us before God the Father! (The nerve!) But Jesus Himself advocates on our behalf. Jesus said those who are healthy do not need a Doctor, but those are who sick. And Jesus would leave the 99 sheep to go after the one lost sheep that went astray. He even said "anyone who is without sin, can cast the first stone". Jesus is the only one Who qualifies, yet He was not angry or condemned the woman, He was merciful. He did not cast stones. She was guilty. But Jesus was not angry. And God is infinite, maybe that's why it's hard for us to fathom His love for us ❤
@@kitten1591 so true. It’s good to remember He will never leave us nor forsake us. I’ve found that the enemy has started coming after me even worse now that I’m trusting Jesus but I know that since I believe in Him I have victory over the enemy. Just as Jesus says in John 16:33 “These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” And as it is written in 1 John 4:4 “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” How blessed we are to have the Lord on our side fighting for us and protecting us, and loving us at the same time.
@@kitten1591 - no, the Holy Spirit was NOT leading you because he did NOT tell you that Romans 10:9 is for us.
Romans 10:1-4
In order to understand Romans 10:9-10, it is better if we begin reading in verse 1: “[1] Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. [2] For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. [3] For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. [4] For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
Romans 10:9-10 was a formula for lost Jews to be saved from Israel’s apostasy during the Acts period. Paul wrote it with Jewish salvation in mind during the transitional period. He did it to provoke lost Israelis to understand and address their spiritual dilemma. Romans 10:9-10 has nothing to do with us Gentiles or members of the Body of Christ. There are religious people who do not like that previous sentence, but that is fine. I would rather believe my Bible than them or their denomination any day! You, friend?
Could it be that you are probably not saved yet?
2 Corinthians 13:5 - King James Version - 5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
As ambassadors for Christ we would like to share the gospel of our salvation in the dispensation of God's grace. “Grace can be defined as the undeserved favor of God for people who deserve His condemnation.”
God does not hold sins against us because they have already been paid for (every sin for every person.) Christ was made to be everyone's-every-sin (2 Corinthians 5:21). However, full reconciliation is not achieved until an individual "reconciles himself" to God (2 Corinthians 5:20). This happens upon belief of the gospel of our salvation. All humanity is forgiven but not all believe it. Being forgiven does not equal being saved, salvation comes by faith. Salvation is appropriated by faith, forgiveness of sins is NOT. Your sins were forgiven regardless of your belief. God did not need your faith at Calvary, He only needed His Son.
SALVATION is only gained by trusting Christ - via belief in the word of truth (the gospel of our salvation.) Salvation IS by works, just not our own. It is not of ourselves, but through the gift of God's grace that we are saved. Upon HEARING the gospel, if we BELIEVE the gospel, we are sealed with the holy Spirit of promise unto the day of redemption (Ephesians 1:13-14). A lost soul can only be saved by trusting Christ to have done everything necessary for our salvation though His finished cross-work. Romans thru Philemon are the only books in the bible that explain salvation for today. In those books we find salvation is by faith alone, in Christ alone, without-any-works-of-any-kind-at-anytime. Christ died for your sins, and has risen for your justification (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) Put your faith in what He did rather than what you have done, are doing, or are going to do. Salvation is not getting-your-sins-forgiven, it's believing they already are. (2 Corinthians 5:19)

You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived! Most people say “Trusting and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
@wesleynunez3825 So, in scripture, "believing" is "obeying". It's what James dedicated an entire chapter talking about in chapter 2 ("faith" - works=/= saving faith). You're preaching to the choir here, but as far as "losing your salvation", no you can't for the simple reason that you're not responsible for your good works in the first place, God is. Paul wrote "it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure." [Philippians 2:13] It was YHWH Who said "I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules." [Ezekiel 36:27] So when you say that a believer can "lose their salvation", you're essentially saying that for God [Holy Spirit] some believers sin is too great for His power to overcome in their life (even as scripture plainly states that "everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world." [1 John 5:4]). You are not bigger than God's plans for your life. His plans are not contigent on your feeble efforts (mine neither). God fulfills is purpose for our lives, not us [Psalm 138:8]. God's election stands firm and what was decided in heaven before the foundation of the world will remain established here on earth. No mortal man or any other power under heaven has the agency to thwart any purpose of God's (Job 42:2).
And it's true, there are a ton of imposters who claim they've been born of God and yet don't walk in His divine will. These people are lairs, and their condemnation does not sleep. Those who "walk away" to never return are they who never "knew" Jesus to begin with [1 John 2:19] this is why Jesus promised on the day of judgment He'd tell them plainly "I NEVER knew you" [Matthew 7:23] (AKA "you were never saved").
Unfortunately for idiots like me it's still complicated even simplified like this I've always had a hard time understanding most of the Bible and I'm constantly worrying about if I'm doing something wrong my anxiety is a massive problem
@@Finalizor Well, do you still have willful sin in your life? When I got saved, I know I had a problem with porn/masturbation and I felt anxious about my salvation the whole time. The thing is, it wasn't until I got serious about leaving all that behind that I began to enjoy God's peace. It was hard, but the truth is the only thing I really needed to do was pray and ask God for forgiveness when I failed as well as additional strength so I could stop. Eventually, through prayer, God built my spirit up enough that I stopped failing. It's all supernatural bro and it all just comes down to what do you want: God or sin?
Being a Christian is like a friendship with you and God and Jesus. Even though we will fall out a true friendship is always mended. We solve our differences and try not to wrong our friends again- A fake friend will just say “Eh, we’ll make up- I’ll let them come to me first” No! If you wanna have a friendship you gotta put in the effort! It takes two!

In one of my visitations to hell, Jesus showed me a person who was a Christian (Jesus said “he was a Christian like you”). But the guy unfortunately started sleeping around (1 cor 6:9). He died middle aged and went to hell forever it was dark but Jesus lit up the area, he asked Jesus for another chance but unfortunately it was too late for him, Pretty sad, Repent and ask Jesus to help you with your struggles (James 4:7)

The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me.
Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul?
Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
We are saved by faith alone not by repenting of sin.
Trust in Jesus, not in your works.
Jonah 3:10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.
This proves that turning from evil way/turning from sin is works and we are not saved by works, only by faith.
In this same verse, we see God repents, which proves that it can't mean turning from sin because if it did how could God repent?
You bring up James 2 which says faith without works is dead, but James 2 has nothing to do with salvation and is talking about our faith being profitable to others, why else do you think he repeatedly says "What doth it profit?" Here is a video that explains James 2 in full context: th-cam.com/video/usCuIboBxgI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Nm6t2dFmAt5tCjrn
More proof that salvation is by faith alone is that repent doesn't even mean turning from sin it means change your mind. The Bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek, with some Aramaic. Translate the word repent to Greek and Hebrew and it clearly says it means a change of mind, so when Jesus says to repent and believe he is saying to change your mind from unbelief to belief. You may ask, if salvation is by faith alone then what makes us different from demons because they believe too
well here is the difference, demons may believe but they certainly do not put their faith in Jesus, faith means trust, we believe in and trust in Jesus Christ as our lord and savior, and in his promise that anyone who believes in him shall be saved. Another thing to consider is, did Jesus promise demons and satan that they would be saved by believing? No, he made that promise to us, so I don't know why you're applying that to demons to try and say that salvation isn't by faith alone. I hope that this message touched your heart because I am telling you this out of love that you will not be deceived by the false gospel of turn from sin to be saved. I pray you come to the truth,
God bless you and Jesus loves you.

Heaven: I was taken on an helicopter ride and I was observing building and I was saying wow, wow on repeat. Another time I was near a big building and there was a radio singing worship songs to Jesus (it sounded so good). Once the Holy Spirit told me “do you want me to take you to Heaven” I answered “No” then He said “Just know we are preparing a banquet” Jesus is awesome, do not miss out om being with Him forever.
Do not do good works so you'll go to heaven, do good works BECAUSE you're going to heaven.
What is good works?
We aren't good, so you can't do good works without the Holy Spirit in you.
Hey this really open my eyes ... just wanna tell you ❤
Please read all these; Psalm 37:27, Romans 2:6-11. Faith WORKS by Love (Gal. 5:6). Love does no ill (sin) to his neighbor (Romans 13:10). Titus 2:11-14
There are two kids of works. Works of the Law and Works of Faith. We are NOT justified by works of the Law.
We are most certainly justified by WORKS OF FAITH. This is called abiding in Christ by KEEPING His commandments fulfilled by LOVE.
1 Corinthians 7:19
@@BeyethereforePerfect777 I agree with these verses! :) Praise God!
So many people are going to hell because they don't realize that faith is the beginning but you need to repent and stop the practice of sinning! We all stumble, but there's a difference between practicing sin and stumbling occasionally. There's a difference between using God's love as a license to sin and using God's love as a process of becoming holy as he is Holy. If you harden your heart you are walking a very dangerous line. I remember I was struggling with sexual sin for a year and Jesus was very patient with me, but he showed me encouraging messages, and then he showed me the consequences of hell if I did not truly repent. I stopped committing the sins and today I know that God is still working in my heart to perfect my faith and to help me stop the practice of sinning. I certainly stumble from time to time but I'm not living in sin and I know I'm going to heaven.
*"...but you need to repent and stop the practice of sinning!"* Yes! That is what the Bible repeatedly teaches in plain, straight-forward, unambiguous language.
So many people are going to hell for trusting in their genuine faith that requires works to be saved.
@@freegraceforum-hg7iw Wrong. Jesus saves by grace, but "faith without works is dead" -James 2:26. You need to acknowledge Jesus AND be a good person to get into Heaven, if you make a mistake, repent and admit you were bad, but, you can't just walk around robbing banks because you're "Saved". You won't get into Heaven if you don't repent. Saying you're "Saved" because you believe in Jesus is a narrow definition of believe, and you won't get into Heaven if you just sit on your hands. A lot of scripture to back me up. You need to read your Bible. I read the Bible, you should try it.
*“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."* Matthew 7:21
"Or do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that *God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?"* Romans 2:4
"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. *How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?"* Romans 6:1-2
*"Repent, for the kingdom of Heaven is at hand."* Matthew 3:2
*"What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?* 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, *faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.* 18 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that-and shudder. *20 You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.* 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. 25 In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? *26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead."* James 2:14-26
"So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice, 8 do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness, 9 where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did. 10 That is why I was angry with that generation; I said, *‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known my ways.’* 11 So I declared on oath in my anger, *‘They shall never enter my rest.’”"* Hebrews 3:7-11
Matthew 23:1-39
*_"For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."_* Matthew 5:20
And, let's not forget the discussion of the lukewarm church of Laodicea in the book of Revelation. (Revelation 3:14-22) Why bother calling us lukewarm if all you need is to "believe"?
You need to be on fire for God, repent of sin, *take up your cross daily* and follow Him (Luke 9:23), or you will suffer Hellfire (Matthew 7:19-20).
*"If you love me, obey my commandments."* John 14:15.
You don't love God, you love sin! You're using God as a ticket to get into Heaven, and not only will you not go up in the Rapture, you won't even enter Heaven at all! You're going straight to Hell! Repent of your sin. You are called to *be holy as He is holy* (1 Peter 1:16). It doesn't say be unholy because you're Saved! You have to actually stop sinning or you will be very surprised when Jesus says *"These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me."* Matthew 15:8 or "I never knew you, depart from me you workers of iniquity!" Matthew 7:23 You need to get right with God, stop the perpetual sin. Stumbling is different than living in sin. You need to repent or you will perish because your faith is dead on arrival. I clearly showed, in Hebrews 3:7-11, that hardening your heart will cause God to reject you, and you will not enter His rest. You need to make Him your Lord and obey Him. He's trying to restore the Garden of Eden, not Babylon! You think you're right with God, you're not right with God just by faith because your definition of faith is flawed. Faith results in works and repentance. Plain and simple.
*"Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them."* Matthew 7:19-20 Works matter. A lot.
Brothers and sisters I am pleading with you to not go a long with what was said in the video. That includes the person who made it.

1 Corinthians 6:9Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived.

But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
Notice its use of past tense, “were some of you” those sins are of the past , you are not a slave of sin but victorious through Jesus

I have some underlying health issues which can lead to premature death, so I heard about fasting can help fix many issues so I decided to give it a go by dry fasting (no food or water) I could only do it for 1-2 days a week without feeling too weak, but a few months in my heart started racing and it let weaker and weaker. When I would eat something unhealthy it would race hard.
One night it was racing hard and a tall figure in white appeared and was praying towards the picture of Jesus in my room, he said something like “please don’t let him die from a heart attack”, then soon after he disappeared and I heard the audible voice of God tell me some stuff then that voice stopped then I felt my body being lifted and life being pumped back into my heart and I was healed thank God, Jesus is God and He is very loving and a miracle worker.

@@savedbyjesusblood Yes so you don't boost, but not everyone gets this gift, if you deny God you will not get the gift
There are 2 ways to deny God, the first one is obvious, unbelief in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour
The other is through living in sin/unrepentant. A Christian not only believes in Jesus as Lord and Saviour but He also has a lifestyle of Holiness.
Titus 1:16 They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.
@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 if it's about goodness and holiness why did Jesus have to die? If It's possible to be holy and perfect why do we need Jesus? You're taking scripture out of context either knowingly or unknowingly. Jesus himself said "he that believes in me shall never die" (meaning die spiritually) so did Jesus lie? Likewise Jesus said "no one can snatch them out of my hand" meaning once You're his you'll always be his

Not bcz of what I am but bcz of what he is.
You can’t lose what you didn’t earn. We’re sealed with the Holy Spirit and we’re adopted children of God, you must be born again.
John 3:3🕊️
Ephesians 1:13💝
It's true you can't 'earn' salvation with works, but our salvation IS contingient on faith. Without it, you aren't saved. You can't 'lose' your salvation, but can you reject it later on? Change your mind? Walk away from it? Of course you can. That's your decision, not God's. He promises to save any and all who put their trust in Jesus. Without that faith (in the end), there is no salvation.
”For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.“
Ephesians 2:8-10 NKJV
Faith is a gift of God for those who He has called for his purpose.
"You can't lose what you didn't earn" is not in the Bible. Nor does it say that being sealed with the Holy Spirit is permanent. The bible talks about apostasy, shipwrecking one's faith, falling from grace, being cut off, having one's name blotted out from the book of life, unpardonable sin. Dozens of verses suggest that it must be a present faith, not a one-time decision in the past.
@@coreysparks2311 Very true - and God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentence and put their faith in Jesus the Christ whom He sent.
God calls all men. The Holy Spirit draws any who will listen. Jesus told many parables about the fish being caught and sorted at the end. He spoke several times about harvest and the wheat and weeds being brought in then sorted. The blood Jesus spilt on the cross was for all mankind, not just for those who would believe. He died for both of the thieves crucified with him, although only one put his faith and received Him as savior.
Jesus offers us the gift of salvation for all of those who believe He is the Son/God incarnate and repent. It's up to us to take/accept it. It's not something to be put in the back of a closet shelf, somewhere in the back only to be retrieved after we die. We take it with us every day of our lives, and we live that faith out as we grow into the person He wants us to be. In the same way we can come to reject that gift of salvation/faith in Him. It's not a contract that God forces us to honor because we 'signed on the dotted line' back when we were a kid. It's a relationship/marriage with Jesus, and we are free to come or go at our choosing.
Revelation 3:5, Jesus' letter to the church in Sardis : " He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels." If your name can be "blotted" out of the Book of Life, it is certain that you can lose your salvation, and face the second death. That is why repentance is importance - as well as understanding that you were bought for a price.
You just gave me ABSOLUTE peace! God bless you brother! 🙏🙌
You're doing a wonderful job with this channel. Your deliver is superb. It definitely seems like you're walking a Godly path with this. I really love how you use illustrations as a visual aid rather than record yourself. I just find this to be a really Godly way to present information and demonstrate humility, and it's a refreshing change from the usual stuff I see. It lends your message an air of divine inspiration. Thank you for this. I showed your video about how to be filled with the Holy Spirit to my teenage son and daughter. That should demonstrate how highly I thought of it. Well done!
LUKEWARM CHURCH/ENDTIMES CHURCH
The end times church is partly Godly and partly Wordily, so they are fake and go to hell like everyone else who doesn’t believe.
Revelation 3: 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither [a]cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.
Yes the illustrations are nice, but you can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS. Most people say “Trust and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
Again Ephesians 2:8-9 but always choose kindness and helping others in any way you can..💯
Jesus was ask what works should we do. Jesus said the work is to believe in the one I sent . Love thy neighbor as you love yourself. God bless
The video narrator, like most , refer to Ephesians 2:8-9 and ALWAYS STOP before
verse 10 "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 2:10 .
We are saved by grace through faith. Then he says we are created for " Good Works and we should walk in them"
Since it doesn't fit the narrative the verse is almost always left out. It is disingenuous to purposefully leave out what by inspiration is required.
Beautiful, Amen! I put my life in God's hands because I have faith in the Holy Trinity! ✝️🙏🔥💜
Romans 6:1-2 KJV
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? [2] God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
What about when the bible talk about when a person backslide going back into a sinful life that the spirit of God leave and that demonic spirit come back with seven more stronger.
What about the 7 churches in the book of Revelation which also represent us today God said if you dont fix the things that I don't like I will take my spirit from you
And their is plenty more scriptures I urge you people study and don't let man deceive you like the bible say
I truly felt relieved as seeing I used to have the belief and not the faith, but to now see how I've shifted away from that. I still sin as we all do, but I am more aware of my sins and actively try to fight against myself and these urges to resist the temptations I'm feeling. I have succeeded many times resisting some of the sins i truly struggle with from my past life, but sometimes I mess up and cave to the tempation and my bodys urges. I do pray for forgiveness of these sins and and to repent from them, and i understand we will all fall short of the glory of God and can't truly live without sin with our flesh, but I've overcame the thought of doing it and thinking it will be forgiven anyways. This mindset has brought me closer to god not just in prayer but in my readings of his word and I truly do feel that I have the holy spirit within me and I pray and welcome it always.
I have given up my sins Benny. Read Pro 28:13. You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS. Most people say “Trust and believe in what Jesus did for you at the cross will get you in His Kingdom,” but that does NOT explain the other verses that tell you to OBEY HIM. People quote Isa 64:6, Ecc 7:20, John 3:16, John 5:24, Rom 3:10, Rom 4:3-6, Rom 6:23, Rom 7:14-25, Rom 8:37-39, Rom 9:30-33, Rom 10:9-13, Rom 11:6 OUT OF CONTEXT. If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
Thank you so much for explaining this !
I was wondering about the salvation and this make it easier for me to understand 😊
Love Jesus is the meaning that we are not trying to commit sin and follow God’s words and obey him, bc we love Jesus and you don’t do things that Jesus won’t like it or disappoint him. It is true love ❤️
The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me.
Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul?
Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 - like many people who claim that they are a Christian you are also probably not saved yet!!!
2 Corinthians 13:5 - King James Version - 5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
2 Timothy 2:15 - King James Version - 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing THE WORD OF TRUTH.
Ephesians 1:13 - King James Version - 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard THE WORD OF TRUTH, THE GOSPEL OF YOUR SALVATION: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise
As ambassadors for Christ we would like to share the gospel of our salvation in the dispensation of God's grace. “Grace can be defined as the undeserved favor of God for people who deserve His condemnation.”
God does not hold sins against us because they have already been paid for (every sin for every person.) Christ was made to be everyone's-every-sin (2 Corinthians 5:21). However, full reconciliation is not achieved until an individual "reconciles himself" to God (2 Corinthians 5:20). This happens upon belief of the gospel of our salvation. All humanity is forgiven but not all believe it. Being forgiven does not equal being saved, salvation comes by faith. Salvation is appropriated by faith, forgiveness of sins is NOT. Your sins were forgiven regardless of your belief. God did not need your faith at Calvary, He only needed His Son.
SALVATION is only gained by trusting Christ - via belief in the word of truth (the gospel of our salvation.) Salvation IS by works, just not our own. It is not of ourselves, but through the gift of God's grace that we are saved. Upon HEARING the gospel, if we BELIEVE the gospel, we are sealed with the holy Spirit of promise unto the day of redemption (Ephesians 1:13-14). A lost soul can only be saved by trusting Christ to have done everything necessary for our salvation though His finished cross-work. Romans thru Philemon are the only books in the bible that explain salvation for today. In those books we find salvation is by faith alone, in Christ alone, without-any-works-of-any-kind-at-anytime. Christ died for your sins, and has risen for your justification (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) Put your faith in what He did rather than what you have done, are doing, or are going to do. Salvation is not getting-your-sins-forgiven, it's believing they already are. (2 Corinthians 5:19)
Salvation comes through faith and trust in Christ ALONE!!!
To mix law and grace is to be under the law and you are still in the old covenant (dispensation of the law) and condemnation awaits you.
You deny that salvation is by grace alone, many people do not know which side they are on, they claim to be Christians but they go back to the law and still claim that they are doing the works (obeying the law) as part of salvation.
People under the law or mixture of law and grace deny that salvation is by grace through faith, they claim that you need works to be saved, being under the law and confusing law and grace will not lead you to inherit the kingdom of heaven.
Have a blessed day with insight, wisdom and discernment!
Truth Time Radio, also on youtube and facebook, is here to help you better understand your bible and better articulate your faith to others.
I really needed this. The enemy has been twisting scripture toward me the same way he tried to do with Jesus in the wilderness. I don't know if I'm like the prodigal son, or if I never actually knew him until recently. But I do know that God forgives ALL sin.
That's not the enemy twisting scripture my friend, that's the Holy Spirit convicting you of sin. You should obey Him and cut out of your life these sins, and the people around you that cause you to sin.
The truth is we must stay out of pig pens, and walk upright all the days of our lives in order to receive the eternal reward of Heaven promised. If we remain in sin, there is no longer a sacrifice for sin but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire.
@@Angelica._.officalll That actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks
@@krombopmike5339
I am glad it helped you. Many years ago a similar message helped me. One day I had to finally face the raging sexual sins in my life that i did not want to give up. But once I stopped listening to ministers lying in my ears that "Eternal life" meant we could never lose it, and actually read the scripture for myself, then i finally understood our salvation is CONDITIONAL, and that we must endure till the end in order to get the promise. Only then, did I finally faced the music about these sins and, by the Holy Spirit, jettisoned them from my life.
Today I am happily married with 3 kids and have not looked back at the immoral life I lived. And whenever the opportunity presents itself, I will get on these type videos and comment, to warn the flock of these lies and of the truth.
Thank you Jesus for this man who makes wonderful videos
we're a team of 4 right now :) thank you for your encouragement!
@@ImpactVideoMinistries..do you guys have an email address? I don't want post on here
The Holy Spirit changed me 3 weeks ago. Certain things He has taken from my heart and I have no desire to do anymore. However, some things I have free will over such as gossip etc still come in. I do not want to lose this peace and love God has given me ❤️
I was just asking this on Reddit if I could lose God and my salvation I don’t want God to leave me I’m really struggling just coming back to Christ as well as I been asking God about who am I and what are my gifts I found both videos all at once ♥️🙏🏾
John 5:24 ESV
Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.
The seriousness of salvations transformation is beyond just hearing the gospel. One must admit belief in the contents of the message. It “makes sense” to those who want God.
“Has eternal life”. Notice theres no room for decision flip flipping. Its active, obtained, acquired.
“has passed from death to life.”
Notice the details as to WHAT happened.
If we are dead in out trespasses then pass from death to life, can we return to dead in trespasses?
Remember, to be unbelieving without salvation you must be hostile and unresponsive to God. If one commits the famous catholic “mortal sin” and loses salvation there MUST be evidence of a radical de-transformation back to how they were. They must BECOME hostile after that stray thought like sexual lust or extreme hostile reactionary anger. They MUST lose spiritual awareness and become bankrupt in hostile unbelief. There is no room for sorrow and brokenness.
If you can LOSE the Gift of salvation from an all powerful creator then YOUR actions must be greater than the sacrifice of Christ. YOU must be as powerful as God. Because if you can gain salvation by free will, you can lose it just the same.
So lets define what biblical salvation really is. A true regenerate believer who came to the cross broken and contrite in despair and Shame of their sin seeking a savior and his grace will never turned away.
So then, the conversion of death to life must be RADICAL, immovable and sustaining outside human thwarted effort. Otherwise our seeking for the HELPER is in vain. We NEED a saviors HELP because OUR human effort falls short alone. Our human will isn’t helping anything.
Radical change produces Radical benefit. And radical change comes from Gods effort, not ours. We simply believe and he changes us.
Heres reality, you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience, you were BLINDED by the god of this world. But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, MADE us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved- by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is NOT YOUR OWN DOING; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
So, there is no cooperation with Grace. Grace is a gift apart from your actions. You cannot merit Grace. You can ask for it, but inly God gives Grace at his leisure. Therefore if God Saves apart from human will, then God saves for finality. Not temporarily and dependent on your effort to Keep it.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
@@islandRT Amen 🙏🏾
@@islandRT did a HUGE study in this. Feel free to copy and use.
Why I am not Catholic, but just catholic.
I believe in justification by faith apart from works of the law. Faith alone. The Catholic reaction is “if that were true, then one can sin as much as they want.”
Romans 3:28 ESV
For we hold that one is justified by faith apart from works of the law.
Romans 5:1 ESV
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God THROUGH our Lord Jesus Christ.
Justified by faith means permanent peace.
“you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience“
”the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing...”
…”In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.”
Hostility, blindness and dead attributed to unbelievers.
Romans 5:12-13 ESV
Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned- [13] for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law.
Sin and the law are synonymous. The law answers sin but if the Law is not applicable to action, then sin is not present. Our actions of works and sin are tethered to the law. Our “works” and “works of the law” cannot be categorically separated.
The free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many. -
what Adam failed to do, Christ fixed.
“For if, because of one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the ABUNDANCE of grace and the free GIFT of RIGHTEOUSNESS reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.”
how much Grace??? Whats the Gift? Are we to BECOME righteous by works and reduced sin??? ….”if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW creation. The old has passed away; behold, the NEW has come.”
Is the “new” brought on by self action? or spiritual influence? What is the actual “peace” we have with God??? How can we answer the question of sin in those who are renewed and changed?
Righteousness - If God is spirit, then true Change is of the heart, not the flesh. We come to God Broken in need of help. So, what is this help? How does it work? “All this is FROM God, who THROUGH Christ reconciled us to himself and GAVE US the ministry of reconciliation;”
Notice reconciliation is from God, it’s GIVEN to us through Christ. How?
“…in Christ - God was reconciling the world to himself, NOT COUNTING their trespasses (sin) against them, and ENTRUSTING (giving) to us the message of reconciliation.”
“Reconciliation” is given to us, and the power of reconciliation defined as sin no longer counted against us. Notice it’s not past trespasses, but All trespasses categorically.
So, how did Christ do this? God did something through Christ to reconcile us to God, so that our own efforts were no longer necessary through works of the law to achieve willed standards of holiness. The “works of the law” and “works” general are indistinguishable. Anything you consciously “do” to perfect your self is a “work”.
2 Corinthians 5:21 ESV
For our sake he MADE him to be sin who knew no sin, so that IN him we might become the righteousness of God…… “In Christ” is key. If we look at Romans 8:1
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are “IN Christ Jesus”.
What is “IN CHRIST”? - Galatians 3:26-27 for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through FAITH. [27] For as many of you as were baptized INTO Christ have put on Christ. In Christ is a spiritual change, the heart.
How can the ungodly possibly be saved and how can works fit into the scenario of the saved? We’ve established works and works of the law. Read on.
Romans 4:4 Now to the one who WORKS, his wages are NOT COUNTED as a gift but as his due.
Works outside faith give a due, not salvation.
Romans 4:5 And to the one who does NOT WORK but BELIEVES in him who justifies the ungodly, his FAITH is counted as righteousness,
"Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered;
blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not count his sin."
There is a implied finished work in Christ not found in cooperative human will. Human will is actually the problem for which we need reconciliation through Christ to make ourselves right with God. Otherwise, all we have is the law and the law demonstrates insufficient by producing a “due” rather than salvation.
The blessed man is a man forgiven of his trespasses and sin. He’s forgiven of that which he was dead in and made alive in through Christ death and given reconciliatory imputed righteousness.
“So you can be saved and just got murder someone?”
Salvation comes with a new spirit indwelling. The spirit causes one to be made alive, mind renewed changed. Does this spirit influence us? Does it cause change or do we “will” change in some cooperative since?
John 5:24 - Jesus
Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and BELIEVES him who sent me HAS eternal life. He DOES NOT come into judgment, but HAS PASSED from death to life.
Notice the finality of this statement. “Has eternal life”. Can someone have eternal life then lose it? “Does not come into judgment but - has passed - from DEATH to LIFE”. Can one pass to life then retrace back and pass back into death? All of scripture shows we are dead in sin, hostile to God and then “made alive”. So then can we be made “dead” again in sin and return to hostility with God? Scripture says NO.
The spirit is key. No one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says "Jesus is accursed!" and no one can say "Jesus is Lord" except in the Holy Spirit. Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. The holy spirit compels action. We are not saved then left alone to our self will. Those saved are met with the compelled directions of the spirit.
The will of God is impressed upon those spirit filled. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. In Christ we also have the certainty of obedience. Obedience WILL be a trait of the believer.
John 14:15
"If you love me, you WILL keep my commandments.
Did he say you can keep? Is it optional? No, he said you WILL keep. Look further…
John 14:23
Jesus answered him, "If anyone loves me, he WILL keep my word, and my Father WILL love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
Christ reconciles us to the Father for this benefit. Even when we were dead in our trespasses, he made us alive together with Christ-For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is NOT YOUR own doing; it is the GIFT of God, [9] not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
What saves? Through what??? Are these related to you in any way??? Its a GIFT so that we cannot Boast. Meaning we cannot claim cooperative works as credit for salvation. Its ALL God through Faith alone and as demonstrates above, faith alone produces saving faith which produced compelled behavior. Works are a result, not “with”.
Now for certainty of Salvation. Romans 8:38-39 - For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, [39] nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Since the Love of Christ is the result of our live for him, this regards salvation. Can anything remove salvation??? Some argue your will can. But as ive argued, self will plays no role in becoming saved. And notice the last categorical statement “nor anything else in all creation”. Last i checked, we are apart of creation. Therefore NOTHING can undo or remove salvation.
Premised correctly, salvation is a radical mind altering spirit filled change of permanency with a new spirit causing compelled action. We pass from death to life. Hostility to love. And SIN of all minds are reconciled by Christ to the father through his death and resurrection. And we gave the promise of eternal life AND sanctification completion before we die.
Philippians 1:6 ESV
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.
The classic hymn applies.
“I have decided…to follow Jesus. No turning back…no turning back”
Like the apostles, radical change produces radical Life. No turning back.
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations and thank you for taking the time to read. If this has given, you pause as a Catholic, the general Catholic response to that which they cannot explain, is “the church was started by Jesus, the Roman Catholic Church is the one true church, therefore, what they say, is all that matters.”
The spirit of God will not let a regenerant believer fall into the trap of unilateral Unfounded claims based on “because the church said so”. No ones theology should be built upon blind faith. Only those blinded by the god of this world are blinded to the reality of God. If your conscience urges you one way and your church demands under threat of anathema another way - without evidence, follow your conscience and work out your salvation with fear and trembling.

2. The fact that some people will have their names "blotted out" of the Lamb's Book of Life (Revelation 3:5) makes this issue much clearer, but that wasn't covered either.

Jesus"...you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. Matt 24 and, "Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness.

True! If you 'give up' by doubting the Grace of GOD through JESUS. That is, through unbelief. You start trying again to earn your salvation through your works and you go back to your former state!
This can happen due to so many false doctrines around that one takes heed and pays attention to instead of trusting in CHRIST alone. Galatians 5:4
And even when you do, GOD will still save you and draw you to HIMSELF if you surrender all again and trust in HIM again.

In one of my visitations to hell, Jesus showed me a person who was a Christian (Jesus said “he was a Christian like you”). But the guy unfortunately started sleeping around (1 cor 6:9). He died middle aged and went to hell forever it was dark but Jesus lit up the area, he asked Jesus for another chance but unfortunately it was too late for him, Pretty said, Repent and ask Jesus to help you with your struggles (James 4:7)

If you read the ENTIRE CHAPTER for those verses, then you will SEE that more is required of you. Don’t base your faith on a couple of verses.
Bravo sir, excellent breakdown as always. I've certainly presumed on God's grace, and still struggle to not do that. So, thought #3 was quite accurate and relevant, and we do reap what we sow, even as we are forgiven by faith.
To God Be The Glory Forever Amen🙏🏾❤️🙌🏾❤️
I burst into tears on thought number 5. You'll probably never know just how much of an impact you had for The Kingdom. I hope to talk to you one day in Heaven, heart to heart.
i hope to talk to you too :)
You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS.

“What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish."
Matthew 18:12-14 🫂
In one of my visitations to hell, Jesus showed me a person who was a Christian (Jesus said “he was a Christian like you”). But the guy unfortunately started sleeping around (1 cor 6:9). He died middle aged and went to hell forever it was dark but Jesus lit up the area, he asked Jesus for another chance but unfortunately it was too late for him, Pretty said, Repent and ask Jesus to help you with your struggles (James 4:7)
You must be born again. I was once like you a slave to sin, a Romans 7 wretch and I thought I was a Christian until I surrendered all and was freed from porn and all mine idols! Romans 8! Jesus can do the same for you but you must trust in His words of eternal life and OBEY by cutting off everything that causes you to sin and then in obedience He will give you the power of His Holy Spirit to overcome all temptation and live a holy, pure life unto eternity! Hebrews 5:9, 1 John 3:9, Psalm 37:27, Matthew 5:48. Seek the Lord with ALL your heart, forsake all your sin and live for Him, He is worthy! James 1:12, God bless you, turn to Jesus with your whole heart!
Thanks for always being clear and simplistic about explaining. I’ve been pondering eternal salvation myself, but this video is greatly appreciated.
BLOT OUT
The bible warns that some will depart from the faith in the latter days ( you can’t fall away/de[art unless you were a part of it to begin with). The Bible warns about Backsliding (you can’t back slide if you didn’t slide forward to begin with). Also, there is reference to people’s name being blot of the book of life (your name can’t be blot out unless it was written first).
But is it the truth? You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS.

Thank you so much for spreading the amazing and superior Gospel! 🙏❤️
Please don't be a fake Christian in the end times Church
People underestimate hell, it is bad because it is separation from God. In a vision I was shown a perron who claimed to be Christian but started fornication (premarital sex), He died relatively young and went to hell forever (1 Cor 6:9). God’s holiness means He will not coexist with sinners forever therefore Repent (Luke 13:3) and have a relationship with Jesus.
This helped me so much. Praise be His name that He directed me to your channel. Thank you so much.
I love you Jesus I give everything I have I put all my faith in you and believe you are my lord and savior. I repent from my sins live for you. Lord cleanse me with your blood. I beg you for forgiveness of my sins. I promise to spread your word and pray daily In Jesus all powerful and mighty name amen.
Can you next make a video about how to deal with guilt and shame? Because im struggling a bit.
th-cam.com/video/G-q4-dSuD0Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gfGetPskRygBd9Jr
Me too 🥺🙏🏼 a video on how to deal with constant self-criticism over past mistakes or current sin struggles would be phenomenal.
@@midnight4569
I know how to deal with that: quit religion. Christianity by it’s nature is very manipulative and solipsistic.
Ik how u feel but if it can help my way to deal with shame is that I think about how much god loves me and about his sacrifice for us and it just really help me alot❤
He already did it! You can search it in his channel it’s like from 7 months ago
I am a BIG fan of your videos. The pictures help me understand better because I am a visual learner. I was wondering can you do a video teaching about what to eat and what NOT to eat (unclean animals) as a Christian? Thank you! God bless your channel!
This sounds like putting oneself back under the law, which Paul warns about (I forget exactly where). Worth a search!
@@RobertKramer17true bro idk why ppl still do this when Christ came to fulfil the law but even for non biblical reasons pork is filthy and nasty to eat because they roll in mud and stuff
The Bible answers this clearly, simply, and unambiguously. See Mark 7:19.
Thanks everyone! Just have a brother in Christ that doesn't eat pork and said I shouldn't eat it either so was confused on the topic. Praise Jesus for new commandments!
@@laurabenditt7645 yeh mane no matter what brother when you have concerns about what anyways before going to man pray to Jesus this is the new way 🙏🏾🙏🏾
The best explanation of salvation that I have seen on youtube. Thankyou God Bless You🙂
Thank you....for reinforcing what the Holy Spirit has told me. I needed this and please for me that I always remember....

Romans 6:1-2 KJV
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? [2] God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
What about when the bible talk about when a person backslide going back into a sinful life that the spirit of God leave and that demonic spirit come back with seven more stronger.
What about the 7 churches in the book of Revelation which also represent us today God said if you dont fix the things that I don't like I will take my spirit from you
And their is plenty more scriptures I urge you people study and don't let man deceive you like the bible say

Amazing video. This definitely reassured me. I had many doubts, especially about the "works" aspect, but you explained it so well. I am saved❤️
Amazing how much double talking he’s doing in this video. Saved by grace BUT you need works which cancels grace. 🤦♂️💀 gEnUinE FaItH tHaT rEQuIres WoRkS.💀
You know God is with you when you can make such videos❤️❤️❤️✝️thank u for this
The Holy Spirit or an Angel quoted a verse to me.
Mark 8: 36 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and LOSES his own soul?
Christianity is a lifestyle of obedience and faith in Jesus. You can freely choose not to obey so you are not a Christian or a follower of Jesus aa the verse above says.
7:46. It was actually implied in the Bible that Jesus knew that Judas was gonna betray him. There is also the fact that Jesus and God, who is all-knowing, are the same.
Indeed, only Yeshua knew that Judas would betray him. All the other disciples did Not know.
I never knew this conversation existed till I got to college and I grew up with Jesus my whole life. My ultimate takeaway prior to and even after watching this video remains the same. That is, this is an important conversation among fellow believers, but a conversation of secondary importance. But still important and valuable lol. The main important thing is to love God by obeying His commandments, accepting His Son Jesus as Lord/Savior, having the Holy Spirit be our eternal Helper and spread His Gospel to all. God will judge accordingly/fairly and hopefully we approach Him with a genuine heart, eternal repentent posture(meaning to just turn away from our wrongs by confession and asking for help) and live each day to make Him known. I personally aim to walk with confidence that if this would be the last day, I feel good being with God because of accepting Jesus Christ as Lord/Savior, and also with fear that there's more to do as long as I breathe and live. So the shorter answer now, I dont think we lose salvation, but I also don't wanna flirt around with a sinful lifestyle to find out lol. So I think I agree with you on many points here and hope we all come to God with love and repentance daily. He's worth it guys and giving Him ours lives with make our life eternal with a life better than we can ever imagine. Better than whatever we may think is the best thing ever 🙏🏾. Thanks for the content as always and sorry to the audience for the long winded response/essay 😅😅😅. As ya can probably tell, this is an exciting topic lol. Love to all and enjoy using ya gifts, talents and treasures for God's glory. May you have joy, peace that surpasses all understand and eternity with God forever here and in the next life in Jesus name. Keep up the awesome content Impact team! ❤️🙏🏾🤙🏾

@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 I appreciate your comment. I hope we all navigate life with a healthy fear and urgency to spread His Word. My last hope comment/prayer for those reading is that I hope we (myself included) begin to soften our hearts and be excited in spite of whereever we are in life to be with God forever. A mind/soul posture that is more excited to be with God forever than to have fear of being away from Him forever in Hell. There is 100% many things I still want to do and achieve on this side of life and hope to (unless Jesus comes first lol), but I pray being with God here and forever with our fam, friends and loved ones would be the priority. Again thanks for your comment and God bless you all, Jesus loves you and wants to change your life daily!
We are saved by faith alone not by repenting of sin.
Trust in Jesus, not in your works.
Jonah 3:10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.
This proves that turning from evil way/turning from sin is works and we are not saved by works, only by faith.
In this same verse, we see God repents, which proves that it can't mean turning from sin because if it did how could God repent?
You bring up James 2 which says faith without works is dead, but James 2 has nothing to do with salvation and is talking about our faith being profitable to others, why else do you think he repeatedly says "What doth it profit?" Here is a video that explains James 2 in full context: th-cam.com/video/usCuIboBxgI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Nm6t2dFmAt5tCjrn
More proof that salvation is by faith alone is that repent doesn't even mean turning from sin it means change your mind. The Bible was originally written in Hebrew and Greek, with some Aramaic. Translate the word repent to Greek and Hebrew and it clearly says it means a change of mind, so when Jesus says to repent and believe he is saying to change your mind from unbelief to belief. You may ask, if salvation is by faith alone then what makes us different from demons because they believe too
well here is the difference, demons may believe but they certainly do not put their faith in Jesus, faith means trust, we believe in and trust in Jesus Christ as our lord and savior, and in his promise that anyone who believes in him shall be saved. Another thing to consider is, did Jesus promise demons and satan that they would be saved by believing? No, he made that promise to us, so I don't know why you're applying that to demons to try and say that salvation isn't by faith alone. I hope that this message touched your heart because I am telling you this out of love that you will not be deceived by the false gospel of turn from sin to be saved. I pray you come to the truth,
God bless you and Jesus loves you.

Did you know we can receive Gods Grace in Vain? 2 Corinthians 5:20-6:1 , We can be led away and fall rom Grace 2 Peter 3:17-18, If we again entangled after escaping the corruption of this world the condition is worse then if we never knew the way of righteousness, (that cannot be if we are still saved) 2 Peter 2:20
We can draw back to Perdition Hebrews 10:38-39, We could set aside grace and fall away Galatians 2:21, Our faith can become dead James 2:17, We can fall short of the grace of God Hebrews 12:14-15, We must continue in faith Acts 14:22,, we must pursue faith and righteousness and lay hold onto eternal salvation 1 Timothy 6:11-12 We must obey the gospel of Christ 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9,, We can cast off our first faith and we can turn aside unto satan Timothy 5: 9-15
We can stray away from the faith after greediness 1 Timothy 6:10 we need to give diligence to add to our faith to have an entrance supplied into the eternal kingdom 2 peter 1:5-11,, We must giver earnest heed we don't drift away or neglect such a great salvation Hebrews 2:1-3, We can become puffed up with pride and fall into the same condemnation as the devil 1 Timothy 3:6,, We can harden our hearts as in the rebellion Hebrews 3:3-19,, We Must continue in the faith again a big IF Colossians 1:19-23 Another big IF we Must hold fast to the word lest we believe in vain 1 Corinthians 15,, We can wander from the faith James 5:19-20 We can receive Gods Grace in Vain 2 Corinthians 6:1
And know this in the end he will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness Matthew 13:41-43
Salvation through faith BY grace. Our belief alone is a gift in and of itself is how I always interpreted Scripture. This video is a good reminder on what to meditate on, the immeasurable cost of what it took for us to be saved, the precious blood of Christ.
All Humans need to repent & Believe in Jesus as their God. Why? Because all Humans have sinned (lied, lusted sexually, stolen, dishonoured parents etc). Avoid the fires of Hell (justice of God) and choose Heaven today. Jesus defeated death by rising from the dead. GOD IS HOLY
You can lose your salvation. Don’t be deceived friend! READ THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT SAYS.

"His vedioes make my days in the presence of god." I love it❤️👍keep going brother.
Christ said "go and sin no more."
Keep the saving faith that works, you have to do it every day until you die. Faith in God's plan of salvation. Live it every day, do it every day.
You can lose your salvation if you give up.
So, if we could lose our salvation in the first place, then why did Christ do what He did? This verse here says, Ephesians 2:8-9: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and not of yourselves: it is the gift of God, not by works lest any man should boast. Should we strive to live like Christ? Yes, absolutely. But since we’re still in the sinful nature we are going to sin. It happens, we’re not perfect and God knows that. That’s why he sent His son to die for all of our sins, past, present and future. All you have to do is believe, we can’t do this on our own that’s why Jesus did what he did. 1 Corinthians 15: 1-4 states, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
I hope this clarifies it for you. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask me. God bless!
Rev 2:10
Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.
Revelation 2:10 ESV.
Question, are people in this church in danger of losing their salvation?
You just described one religion among a dozen. In essence this is just like roman catholicism.
@@minorsingingairhead
Yeah, because I'm Catholic.
This is also the Orthodox.
In fact, this was all of Christianity until Protestants got the idea they were the first to actually read AND understand the Bible and came up with the faith alone trash.
@@johncolquitt3086
Be faithful unto death.
Just like being faithful to your significant other is an act (or work) in of itself.
