Revelation 7 says that "salvation BELONGS to God and the Lamb seated on the throne". It is not in our hands to lose it. It is in HIS HANDS, Salvation BELONGS to Christ and God the Father. Nobody and nothing can snatch it away.

@@457christiaan I very much doubt that there is more sin in my life than yours, and yet by your comment and the spirit of it I discern this: my righteousness is wholly and solely derived from Jesus, while your supposed 'righteousness' is derived from self. That is a serious problem for you. It is impossible for any but Christ to keep all the commandments of God; you are self-deceived if you believe you have kept them all perfectly and that by them you are sanctified. If you were, Christ would have died for naught. To understand that does not give one license to sin, or any desire to do so; quite the contrary. Rather, it puts our eyes on Jesus rather than obsessing over our own performance. I hope one day you too will be free from the striving in vain for self-righteousness. My heart is thankful daily for Christ's righteousness alone.
I left the church for 7 years but the Holy Spirit never left me. Once you are born again he will never leave you I can attest to this & I committed shameful sins after being saved & he never left me. Earthy consequences of my sin yes, but loss of salvation no.
can you explain one sin? look, i have lied to a pastor lol. the sermon ended and i left, later i spoke to him on whatsapp and told him i left because i had some other stuff to do, which was false obviously. i confessed it to both the Lord and to the pastor. i couldnt even sleep before i confessed it to the pastor, after i confessed it i indeed fell asleep. im not asking for your biggest sins, but i assume you committed sins way worse than this.
Wow, this message is at the core of the gospel. The reason it’s not taught about often is because the liar satan knows it’s the one thing that sets people free from bondage!

How can you lose something you did not earn? Salvation comes from God alone. You cannot lose such a precious gift. You are saved by grace not works. You are saved forever. You cannot lose it.
You cannot lose your salvation because once you are saved you will always be saved. We all are sinners but that doesn't mean we lose our salvation because Jesus paid for all of our sins
Good Job brother Farley, fall in from Grace in. Hrist as a Christian is impossible. To many Scriptures proven by Christ, Paul, John, just to name a few. Proving Eternal life is forever more. Can't lose Eternal life, partial, maybe, Eternal life, not possible. Keep teaching the truth of the only Gospel of Grace. God Bless brother. Love you bro. Dave: kentucky
Good morning brother Farley! Thank you for your teaching. It's refreshing to hear contextual explanations of verses that have been picked out of scripture and separated from the whole Word of God and used to support/prove a belief system. Willfully sinning is one of those man made doctrines used by so many to "prove" that a truly redeemed believer can lose their salvation. Although, in context, it means no such thing. It breaks my heart that so many choose a topical study method to study the Bible. The Word of God is a whole. Not bits and pieces of scripture that fit a certain narrative. It saddens me to see the Word of God regularly used to discredit the Word of God. Topical study is a great thing, but only when one is already familiar with the Bible. Like the topic of losing salvation, instead of understanding the Bible, people tend to Google "can I lose my salvation" and list after list of single verses pop up that point to proof texts that, while standing alone, appear to say it is possible. Studying the Word of God as a whole will alert us to other verses that appear to be in contradiction to what we think we're understanding. When that happens, we have something wrong because the Bible NEVER contradicts itself. I pray that we will all begin to study the Bible as a whole and not just read a list of stand alone verses that comfortably fit our preconceived notions. Thank you for the message you delivered in this video. Christ is who He said and is able to do exactly as He claimed.
Falling out of grace is falling into the law. But there are if you choose those great big arms to catch you. For I will never forsake you nor leave you. But we still have a choice even though God is always with us, we have a choice to walk in a mixture (Galatians 1) or walk in pure grace, which is the same gospel Paul preached!
Sometimes it stuns me the comments from people who type something, after having not listened to the video clip, nor do they have any intention of listening. Once you open, receive Jesus free gift, accept Christ into your heart, are born again, find Jesus, are saved, put whatever human bunch of words together to describe salvation, you are saved, sealed, protected, cleansed, set apart, secure, holy, justified, declared righteous, for all of time! Period! You do not keep yourself. You do not do soul maintenance. You do not walk away! Jesus does not let you slip out of His hands! You do not back-slide! You only are engaged in a faith where your mind is troubled with what has happened to the heart, and sometimes you sin. How powerful is your Jesus? My Jesus did it all, His work on the cross was good enough. I could not save me, therefore, I cannot keep me. What about your Jesus? Do not have an affair with Moses, because that is cheating on Jesus. Christ did not come to seek and save that which was saved. Christ did not rise from the grave and send the Holy Spirit to dwell in those who were practicing the law. Christ came to die to pay the penalty of the law, so that those who take the free gift He offers could live without condemnation nor bondage to any part of the law.
I've been thought cute 25 years that Christ won't leave you, but you can easily leave him, by not following him properly, or by not using your talent properly, or by falling into sin to often or something... I can not wrap my mind around the fact that I am secure.
😢😔🙏💚 16:08 Or us can break the seal or deal? 😕 And how can a person really fall away or become evil? And wish none of us fell as towards evil or enemies. And having the issues of having or being in the right Spirit mind and sincere heart faith loving God Spirit and you must "work" serve obey and to please God connection issues.
Falling from Grace has nothing to do with salvation. Believers can fall from grace when they stop to believe in grace and start believe in law, this can happen when they get deceived. Paul is indeed talking to believers in this passage because they choosed to follow the law again after being saved. They still were saved but got deceived and the flesh loves the law so the fruit of unbelief has taken place in their heart when they thought they have to keep the law after being born again.
Hey Tatersalad! All you have to do is trust that Jesus died for your sins and rose again on the third day. That's all you have to do. In His death, the old you dies, and in His resurrection, you are alive and a new creation. If need be, ask God to give you understanding about this, and He will.
It's a curse to try and become the very Righteousness of God without God simply GIVING you His own Righteousness. It's too great a mountain to climb. Jesus had to come down the mountain and become sin for you to become the Righteousness of God. Lucifer tried to climb the mountain of the Righteousness of God on his own, and look now how has been cast down. Salvation has now appeared APART from works (that is OUR works). The Salvation God gives is His OWN work, not ours. For what man ever created Jesus Christ?
Grace from a speeding ticket by receiving a warning instead of a ticket, is no authority to speed away from that police officer who gave you grace. You still need to comply with the law.

I'm not in any way a sceptic of this wonderful message, but what about the case of people who have tasted the faith and left, the backsliders? How do you explain that. Please, I need more explanation to it. Thank you
1 Corinthians 5:1-4 This shows there may certainly be consequences for back sliding, your body may be turned over to the devil, but look, where your Spirit still goes! RIGHT BACK TO GOD, THE FATHER!
People will always fail occasionally, but someone who never goes back to Jesus - were they ever really chosen? Just socializing perhaps. True believers cannot be lost, will always come back to Jesus. David was not lost when in sin. If it is about our good v bad works we are all lost forever. Someone who denies Jesus - were they ever saved?
Please allow me to add just a bit more. 1. Yes Lakewood does practice tithing - But I am in agreement with you on that issue sir. 2. Joel does Not take a salary from Lakewood's tithing. 3. You wrote Twisted Scripture - And I hope you get some royalty from that - In the same way that I hope for Joel and his books. There are other things that could be said, but I'll stop there. There are Unending miracles happening at Lakewood, and God gets the Glory; in the same way that He gets the Glory when You preach, Andrew sir. You're so brilliant with Grace, and with the entire Bible - and the Church, and the World, Desperately needs that.
Please be careful precious people, don't let a man tell you what any passages mean, instead study the Scriptures as they clearly reveal themselves as you study prayerfully. Read FULL letters, not bits and parts that can mislead such as this video. Have you ever given a gift away? We can forfeit His gift of salvation. He will never leave us, but we can turn away from Him. Irrevocable? Read John 14 and 15. We need to read the Scripture's teachings in their entirety or we dismiss His clear warnings, and there are a plethora. Why the warnings if there's no risk of losing salvation? The warnings seem to be aimed at being deceived by self and others. He is seeking genuine love, what does that look like? Putting God First. Below is one sample of the warnings witnessed in this video, please pray for this pastor and his followers to be led by the Holy Spirit and not deceived any further. Please help us all precious Father in Heaven as we seek you fervently to worship and follow you. At 11:03 this teacher has been misled or is misleading us on Luke 20:36 "...for 'they cannot even die anymore', ... using this snippet to support once saved always saved (OSAS) a man-made doctrine born of Calvinism. If you read the entire chapter it is about the Sadducees asking Jesus about the afterlife of a woman married to 7 men whose wife was she after all had died. Let's include a few verses back and see it more clearly as God intended: Luke 20:33-36: 33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife. 34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: 35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: 36 Neither can they die anymore: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. " Did you notice that verse 36 which the pastor highlighted 'Neither can they die any more..' had nothing to do with the message this preacher is using it to support once saved always saved (OSAS, s dangerous false teaching of Calvinism) ? But what is Jesus teaching here? We only need to read it in its context.
Look closely at verse 35, is this teaching OSAS (once saved always saved) or "but they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead..." Who are worthy? Those that follow Jesus Christ's Truth in Spirit to the end as He clearly states in the verses I have shared below and many many others as you will discover as you read entire letters in their context. 1John teaches repentance. God is seeking sinners who are truly repentant believers, true lovers of God, seeking after His Truth more than their own lives. In Revelation 3:5, Jesus warned the churches (directly speaking to Sardis but all letters were to be read to all churches as warnings) "He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels." What would happen if they did not overcome? Overcomers are those willing to deny self and live for Christ in Spirit and in Truth...not submitting to self or this world. James taught in James ch 5:19-20 "My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, consider this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and cover over a multitude of sins." James' entire letter was to believers, not non-believers. Only a Calvinist will try to sway you into thinking otherwise, it is plain and clear. Can a nonbeliever go 'back' trusting a Christ they never knew? Paul taught the churches incessantly about his teachings being in vain if they ignored his warnings about running this race until the end. There were many false teachers deceiving even the elect, those loving God. It is Scriptural that we are prone to sin and incapable of saving ourselves...but God intended us to see our error and repent from our sinful natures and faithfully accept His loving Grace. Read Jeremiah 18, God discusses that if man would just turn from his wicked ways He would bless them, but they chose to sin so He used them as vessels of dishonor rather than honor. Though He would have preferred they chose to do good to be used as vessels of honor. Just as Abraham, Jacob, and David were able to do good and bad, so were the disciples, as are we. Genesis 4:7 "If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.” God rejected Cain's offering as it was self-centered, Abel's was self-sacrificing. God knows our motives. We must ask Him to reveal any wicked way in us so that we can be liberated from it and live peaceably with God, ourselves, and others. This way He may do His good work in us. God's Word is the same yesterday, today and forever...we read it over and over in the Scriptures. We must choose repentance before God will accept our sacrifice of self...He then is faithful to work in us a new heart, mind, spirit...but be alert, as Paul and Jesus warned, we can reject Him at any time by satan's cunning deceptions. God will not force us to stay in His grace, satan can not snatch us out of His hand, but we can leave on our own accord if we follow after false doctrines, knowingly or deceptively. Thus the warnings were given for our benefit. There are more deceivers than true Bible teachers these last days, especially beware of Calvinism, Catholicism, Mormonism, SDA, JWs, CoC, and any ism. Do they each get a lot right about the Scriptures? YES! It is what they get wrong about the gospel message that is alarming, they each stumble as the followers are led to follow a founder, a man, rather than sticking to Jesus' Truth in the Scriptures. My prayers are to all of us lost sinners seeking God's Truth, wisdom, joy, peace, protection, growth, strength and love...He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and save us eternally by His gracious love and our repentant hearts to put Him first. He's looking for sinners to repent, that's faith...that's all He asks, He does the rest graciously. God bless all of you desiring Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior now and forever
Yes I left the church for 7 years but the Holy Spirit never left me. Once you are born again he will never leave you I can attest to this & I committed shameful sins after being saved & he never left me. Earthy consequences of my sin yes, but loss of salvation no.
why does the bible say some will fall from the faith? what about the foolish virgins who did have enough oil?and how about the parable of the sower, the seed that fell and got choked by the thorns, or got torched by the sun? were they not saved?
If I were you, instead of sounding like the Bible contradicts itself, or instead of throwing verses at this message that seems to contradict the message, I would instead try to either make sense of the passages brought up in this video and reconcile them with what I believe or with the rest of the passages and then if I reached a different conclusion, I would come here and propose a different understanding of the passages brought up here.
Tatersalad19 Cars praying that you learn your identity in Christ. Please continue with Dr. Andrew farleys sermons. Also look up Brother Shane in Christ his bible studies are clear and sound in grace . My spirit has been settled no longer being tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine. Grace be with you

If you don’t see Jesus disfigured bleeding to death with his lungs filled with blood, crucified pierced by giant nails on his hands and feet then you are NOT taking your Salvation seriously and you don’t Love Him. It’s that simple folks!! We are told by The Word: “And working together we urge you NOT to receive your Grace in vain”
No one has salvation until they are ACCOUNTED WORTHY of their calling. We have the HOPE of salvation. (read these verses) 2Th 1:4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure: 2Th 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be COUNTED WORTHY of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: 1Ti_4:16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; CONTINUE in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee. Joh 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye CONTINUE in my word, then are ye, my disciples indeed; Joh 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free (saved). (you won't be set free if you do not continue in his word) Heb_4:1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a PROMISE being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. Heb_10:36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the PROMISE.
All who have the Spirit of Christ have their Salvation, for the Lord is the Spirit and God is our Salvation. All who have the Spirit of God have the Promise of God. All who have the Spirit of God have Heaven, and the Eternal Promise in Christ Jesus. Whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ is NONE of His. These have no hope of Salvation, no Promise of God. In Christ, all the Promises of God are Yes and Amen. All apart from Christ, all are condemned in their sins. Those without Christ have no Hope of Salvation and no Promise from God.
So when you say the sinners prayer, that isn't in the Bible, you are good for life! No matter if you are a lying, cheating, murderer that breaks all of God's commandments.. Jesus knows we are broken, that is why He gave us the Sacraments...especially the Sacrament of reconciliation! I respect that this pastor loves our Lord, but he does not understand Jesus' teaching. For one, Jesus started a religion!
Brother if Jesus' died for you and I for our salvation,how much more do you need to get saved again. You can't be more righteous and you will never be more righteous,to be able to please God . Nothing brother.Jesus work on the cross has fullfilled God's law and God's wrath removed from our behalf . That why the Bible says when you have the son you have life.When you believe in the son you will not perish and condemned. Jesus already said it and we cannot changed that ,it a powerful Statement and it good to be True and that the power of the Gospel. Whatever righteousness you are trying to earn or try to make your way to heaven is in vain... All you gotta do is BELIEVED IN JESUS FULL WORK ON THE CROSS
@TafuaEfu You are not going to be given the righteousness of Christ. God is going to judge you based on your own righteousness. When the bible says Abraham believed God and his faith was credited to HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS, why didn't God credit SOMEONE else's righteousness to him? Can you explain how God credited Abraham with being righteousness without some borrowing of someone else's righteousness? Explain that right now. I demand you explain that.
@TafuaEfu when you wrote "You can't be more righteous " that's right. You cannot. Which means sola fide is false. Since it contradicts sanctification. What is sanctification? Becoming more like Christ. I.e more righteous.
@@dman7668 yes Brother and how can you become like Christ ? To be like Christ and not Christ himself.Because Christ righteousness become ours .Our righteousness is as filthy as racks as the Bible says. Jesus said to His disciples if your righteousness is as the same as the pharasees,non of you will enter my kingdom,in other words your works will not justified you as the teacher's of the law were doing. Now ask yourself the question how can you become like Jesus ? By striving your whole life to be like Christ or be CHRIST? Now you gotta rest assured knowing that your Salvation is already done n that the work of Christ not YOU OR ME. If you think you will loose your Salvation and knowing your a God fearing person n love Jesus then you received yourself,nothing will ever seperate or snatch you out of Jesus hand unless you didn't mean your confession as you accept him as Lord n saviour in the first place
@@TafuaEfu No, at no point in time does the bible say you are being clothed in Christ's righteousness. Show me which passage from the bible says you are getting Christ's righteousness. You also didn't answer my question. Why didn't God credit Abraham with someone ELSES righteousness? Why does the bible say Abraham believed God and his faith was credited to HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS?
Revelation 7 says that "salvation BELONGS to God and the Lamb seated on the throne".
It is not in our hands to lose it.
It is in HIS HANDS, Salvation BELONGS to Christ and God the Father.
Nobody and nothing can snatch it away.

😢😔🙏💚
16:08 Or us can break the seal or deal? 😕
And how can a person really fall away or become evil?
And wish none of us fell as towards evil or enemies. And having the issues of having or being in the right Spirit mind and sincere heart faith loving God Spirit and you must "work" serve obey and to please God connection issues.
Or issues with what seems like living in sin and not living for God? 😕 Programmed/programming
25:21 yes don't loose anyone...
Yay we have license to sin ty pastor!
But now it is no longer I who do it but sin that lives in me Rom 7.17,20. Why should I be afraid of sinning when it is no longer I who do it.
Falling from Grace has nothing to do with salvation. Believers can fall from grace when they stop to believe in grace and start believe in law, this can happen when they get deceived. Paul is indeed talking to believers in this passage because they choosed to follow the law again after being saved. They still were saved but got deceived and the flesh loves the law so the fruit of unbelief has taken place in their heart when they thought they have to keep the law after being born again.
Religious people have a doomed mind set. Working for salvation is a quagmire.
Please pray for me that I come to the salvation of Christ Jesus
Tatersalad19 Cars praying for you tatersalad. Just receive grace and rest in grace
@@36742650885 all you have to do is simply ask Jesus to come into your heart.
Hey Tatersalad!
All you have to do is trust that Jesus died for your sins and rose again on the third day. That's all you have to do. In His death, the old you dies, and in His resurrection, you are alive and a new creation. If need be, ask God to give you understanding about this, and He will.
It's a curse to try and become the very Righteousness of God without God simply GIVING you His own Righteousness. It's too great a mountain to climb. Jesus had to come down the mountain and become sin for you to become the Righteousness of God. Lucifer tried to climb the mountain of the Righteousness of God on his own, and look now how has been cast down. Salvation has now appeared APART from works (that is OUR works). The Salvation God gives is His OWN work, not ours. For what man ever created Jesus Christ?
Grace from a speeding ticket by receiving a warning instead of a ticket, is no authority to speed away from that police officer who gave you grace. You still need to comply with the law.
What about John 15:6 ? The words of Jesus himself
4.) The True Sign of Sanctification-Those who dishonor God by transgressing His law may talk sanctification, but it is of that value, and just as acceptable, as was the offering of Cain. Obedience to all the commandments of God is the only true sign of sanctification. Disobedience is the sign of disloyalty and apostasy
I'm not in any way a sceptic of this wonderful message, but what about the case of people who have tasted the faith and left, the backsliders? How do you explain that. Please, I need more explanation to it. Thank you
1 Corinthians 5:1-4 This shows there may certainly be consequences for back sliding, your body may be turned over to the devil, but look, where your Spirit still goes! RIGHT BACK TO GOD, THE FATHER!
People will always fail occasionally, but someone who never goes back to Jesus - were they ever really chosen? Just socializing perhaps. True believers cannot be lost, will always come back to Jesus. David was not lost when in sin. If it is about our good v bad works we are all lost forever. Someone who denies Jesus - were they ever saved?
So is this mean once saved always saved?
Please allow me to add just a bit more.
1. Yes Lakewood does practice tithing - But I am in agreement with you on that issue sir.
2. Joel does Not take a salary from Lakewood's tithing.
3. You wrote Twisted Scripture - And I hope you get some royalty from that - In the same way that I hope for Joel and his books.
There are other things that could be said, but I'll stop there.
There are Unending miracles happening at Lakewood, and God gets the Glory; in the same way that He gets the Glory when You preach, Andrew sir. You're so brilliant with Grace, and with the entire Bible - and the Church, and the World, Desperately needs that.
Why are you defending Lakewood. Joel is proven to be a false preacher
Please be careful precious people, don't let a man tell you what any passages mean, instead study the Scriptures as they clearly reveal themselves as you study prayerfully. Read FULL letters, not bits and parts that can mislead such as this video. Have you ever given a gift away? We can forfeit His gift of salvation. He will never leave us, but we can turn away from Him. Irrevocable? Read John 14 and 15. We need to read the Scripture's teachings in their entirety or we dismiss His clear warnings, and there are a plethora. Why the warnings if there's no risk of losing salvation? The warnings seem to be aimed at being deceived by self and others. He is seeking genuine love, what does that look like? Putting God First.
Below is one sample of the warnings witnessed in this video, please pray for this pastor and his followers to be led by the Holy Spirit and not deceived any further. Please help us all precious Father in Heaven as we seek you fervently to worship and follow you.
At 11:03 this teacher has been misled or is misleading us on Luke 20:36 "...for 'they cannot even die anymore', ... using this snippet to support once saved always saved (OSAS) a man-made doctrine born of Calvinism.
If you read the entire chapter it is about the Sadducees asking Jesus about the afterlife of a woman married to 7 men whose wife was she after all had died. Let's include a few verses back and see it more clearly as God intended:
Luke 20:33-36:
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
36 Neither can they die anymore: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. "
Did you notice that verse 36 which the pastor highlighted 'Neither can they die any more..' had nothing to do with the message this preacher is using it to support once saved always saved (OSAS, s dangerous false teaching of Calvinism) ?
But what is Jesus teaching here? We only need to read it in its context.
Look closely at verse 35, is this teaching OSAS (once saved always saved) or "but they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead..."
Who are worthy? Those that follow Jesus Christ's Truth in Spirit to the end as He clearly states in the verses I have shared below and many many others as you will discover as you read entire letters in their context.
1John teaches repentance. God is seeking sinners who are truly repentant believers, true lovers of God, seeking after His Truth more than their own lives.
In Revelation 3:5, Jesus warned the churches (directly speaking to Sardis but all letters were to be read to all churches as warnings) "He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels." What would happen if they did not overcome? Overcomers are those willing to deny self and live for Christ in Spirit and in Truth...not submitting to self or this world.
James taught in James ch 5:19-20 "My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, consider this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and cover over a multitude of sins." James' entire letter was to believers, not non-believers. Only a Calvinist will try to sway you into thinking otherwise, it is plain and clear. Can a nonbeliever go 'back' trusting a Christ they never knew?
Paul taught the churches incessantly about his teachings being in vain if they ignored his warnings about running this race until the end. There were many false teachers deceiving even the elect, those loving God.
It is Scriptural that we are prone to sin and incapable of saving ourselves...but God intended us to see our error and repent from our sinful natures and faithfully accept His loving Grace.
Read Jeremiah 18, God discusses that if man would just turn from his wicked ways He would bless them, but they chose to sin so He used them as vessels of dishonor rather than honor. Though He would have preferred they chose to do good to be used as vessels of honor. Just as Abraham, Jacob, and David were able to do good and bad, so were the disciples, as are we.
Genesis 4:7 "If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.”
God rejected Cain's offering as it was self-centered, Abel's was self-sacrificing. God knows our motives.
We must ask Him to reveal any wicked way in us so that we can be liberated from it and live peaceably with God, ourselves, and others. This way He may do His good work in us.
God's Word is the same yesterday, today and forever...we read it over and over in the Scriptures. We must choose repentance before God will accept our sacrifice of self...He then is faithful to work in us a new heart, mind, spirit...but be alert, as Paul and Jesus warned, we can reject Him at any time by satan's cunning deceptions.
God will not force us to stay in His grace, satan can not snatch us out of His hand, but we can leave on our own accord if we follow after false doctrines, knowingly or deceptively. Thus the warnings were given for our benefit.
There are more deceivers than true Bible teachers these last days, especially beware of Calvinism, Catholicism, Mormonism, SDA, JWs, CoC, and any ism. Do they each get a lot right about the Scriptures? YES! It is what they get wrong about the gospel message that is alarming, they each stumble as the followers are led to follow a founder, a man, rather than sticking to Jesus' Truth in the Scriptures.
My prayers are to all of us lost sinners seeking God's Truth, wisdom, joy, peace, protection, growth, strength and love...He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and save us eternally by His gracious love and our repentant hearts to put Him first. He's looking for sinners to repent, that's faith...that's all He asks, He does the rest graciously.
God bless all of you desiring Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior now and forever
but what if you walk away from church are you still saved?
Yes I left the church for 7 years but the Holy Spirit never left me. Once you are born again he will never leave you I can attest to this & I committed shameful sins after being saved & he never left me. Earthy consequences of my sin yes, but loss of salvation no.
Church doesn’t save you Jesus Christ saves you if you have faith in him and him only for your salvation he will never let you go
why does the bible say some will fall from the faith? what about the foolish virgins who did have enough oil?and how about the parable of the sower, the seed that fell and got choked by the thorns, or got torched by the sun? were they not saved?
If I were you, instead of sounding like the Bible contradicts itself, or instead of throwing verses at this message that seems to contradict the message, I would instead try to either make sense of the passages brought up in this video and reconcile them with what I believe or with the rest of the passages and then if I reached a different conclusion, I would come here and propose a different understanding of the passages brought up here.
Markus GH please pray for me that I be delivered from darkness
Tatersalad19 Cars praying that you learn your identity in Christ. Please continue with Dr. Andrew farleys sermons. Also look up Brother Shane in Christ his bible studies are clear and sound in grace . My spirit has been settled no longer being tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine. Grace be with you
That's me😢😢😢
4.) The True Sign of Sanctification-Those who dishonor God by transgressing His law may talk sanctification, but it is of that value, and just as acceptable, as was the offering of Cain. Obedience to all the commandments of God is the only true sign of sanctification. Disobedience is the sign of disloyalty and apostasy
Would have been better if he had touched on the verses that so many use to back up you can lose your salvation. He didn't touch them at all.
Losing my salvation to me is saying "Losing God". LOL. Where can I go from God's Presence? If I make my bed in Hell, behold thou are there.
Hi
If you don’t see Jesus disfigured bleeding to death with his lungs filled with blood, crucified pierced by giant nails on his hands and feet then you are NOT taking your Salvation seriously and you don’t Love Him. It’s that simple folks!! We are told by The Word: “And working together we urge you NOT to receive your Grace in vain”
No one has salvation
until they are ACCOUNTED WORTHY of their calling. We have
the HOPE of salvation. (read these verses)
2Th 1:4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your
patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:
2Th 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye
may be COUNTED WORTHY of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
1Ti_4:16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; CONTINUE in them: for
in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
Joh 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye CONTINUE
in my word, then are ye, my disciples indeed;
Joh 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free
(saved). (you won't be set free if you do not continue in his word)
Heb_4:1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a PROMISE being left us of entering into
his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
Heb_10:36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of
God, ye might receive the PROMISE.
All who have the Spirit of Christ have their Salvation, for the Lord is the Spirit and God is our Salvation. All who have the Spirit of God have the Promise of God. All who have the Spirit of God have Heaven, and the Eternal Promise in Christ Jesus. Whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ is NONE of His. These have no hope of Salvation, no Promise of God. In Christ, all the Promises of God are Yes and Amen. All apart from Christ, all are condemned in their sins. Those without Christ have no Hope of Salvation and no Promise from God.
I did😢😢😢
So when you say the sinners prayer, that isn't in the Bible, you are good for life!
No matter if you are a lying, cheating, murderer that breaks all of God's commandments..
Jesus knows we are broken, that is why He gave us the Sacraments...especially the Sacrament of reconciliation!
I respect that this pastor loves our Lord, but he does not understand Jesus' teaching.
For one, Jesus started a religion!
Once saved always saved is as heretical as muhammed or Joseph Smith being a prophet.
Brother if Jesus' died for you and I for our salvation,how much more do you need to get saved again. You can't be more righteous and you will never be more righteous,to be able to please God . Nothing brother.Jesus work on the cross has fullfilled God's law and God's wrath removed from our behalf . That why the Bible says when you have the son you have life.When you believe in the son you will not perish and condemned. Jesus already said it and we cannot changed that ,it a powerful Statement and it good to be True and that the power of the Gospel. Whatever righteousness you are trying to earn or try to make your way to heaven is in vain... All you gotta do is BELIEVED IN JESUS FULL WORK ON THE CROSS
@TafuaEfu You are not going to be given the righteousness of Christ. God is going to judge you based on your own righteousness.
When the bible says Abraham believed God and his faith was credited to HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS, why didn't God credit SOMEONE else's righteousness to him?
Can you explain how God credited Abraham with being righteousness without some borrowing of someone else's righteousness?
Explain that right now. I demand you explain that.
@TafuaEfu when you wrote
"You can't be more righteous " that's right. You cannot. Which means sola fide is false. Since it contradicts sanctification.
What is sanctification? Becoming more like Christ. I.e more righteous.
@@dman7668 yes Brother and how can you become like Christ ? To be like Christ and not Christ himself.Because Christ righteousness become ours .Our righteousness is as filthy as racks as the Bible says. Jesus said to His disciples if your righteousness is as the same as the pharasees,non of you will enter my kingdom,in other words your works will not justified you as the teacher's of the law were doing. Now ask yourself the question how can you become like Jesus ? By striving your whole life to be like Christ or be CHRIST? Now you gotta rest assured knowing that your Salvation is already done n that the work of Christ not YOU OR ME. If you think you will loose your Salvation and knowing your a God fearing person n love Jesus then you received yourself,nothing will ever seperate or snatch you out of Jesus hand unless you didn't mean your confession as you accept him as Lord n saviour in the first place
@@TafuaEfu No, at no point in time does the bible say you are being clothed in Christ's righteousness.
Show me which passage from the bible says you are getting Christ's righteousness.
You also didn't answer my question. Why didn't God credit Abraham with someone ELSES righteousness? Why does the bible say Abraham believed God and his faith was credited to HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS?
You can
