I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"CAN YOU LOSE YOUR SALVATION?" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

I HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT THIS ABOUT THREE TIMES NOW AND I STILL GET PEOPLE ASKING ME HOW WE CAN BE SURE THAT WE ARE SAVED. WELL, LET ME TRY ONE MORE TIME TO EXPLAIN IT SO EVERYONE CAN KNOW FOR SURE. I HAD HEARD ALL MY LIFE, "ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED", AND I HAD HEARD A LOT OF MINISTERS AND PEOPLE SAY THAT IT WAS NOT TRUE. WELL, WHEN I WAS NOT REALLY STUDYING THE BIBLE, MANY YEARS AGO, I REALLY DID NOT KNOW FOR SURE MYSELF. I ALWAYS HOPED IT WAS TRUE BUT NO ONE COULD NOT, OR WOULD NOT, TAKE THE TIME TO TELL ME. I DON'T WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE TYPE PEOPLE.

FINALLY I GOT SMART AND WENT TO THE BIBLE AND STARTED STUDYING FOR MYSELF. GUESS WHAT I FOUND......THE ANSWER, RIGHT IN GOD'S WORD. READ IT FOR YOURSELF, "ROMANS 8:37-39 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

TO ME, THAT PASSAGE PRETTY MUCH TELLS IT THE WAY IT IS...NOTHING CAN SEPARATE US. I AM GLAD IT INCLUDED "WHICH IS IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD" BECAUSE WE, WHO ARE BORN AGAIN, ARE IN JESUS. JESUS SAID THIS HIMSELF IN JOHN 14:19-20 "Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in Me, and I in you."

SO, IF ANYONE EVER ASKS YOU IF ANYONE OR ANYTHING CAN TAKE AWAY YOUR SALVATION, YOU CAN TELL THEM NO. THIS SHOULD MAKE A LOT OF YOU FEEL MUCH BETTER. NOW YOU CAN GIVE IT UP BY DENOUNCING HIM AND TELLING HIM THAT YOU DON'T WANT HIM IN YOUR LIFE ANYMORE AND DON'T WANT HIM TO BE YOUR SAVIOR. HE GAVE US A FREE WILL TO CHOOSE LIFE OR DEATH BUT HE SAYS TO CHOOSE LIFE. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN LOSE IT BECAUSE GOD GAVE US A FREE WILL AND HE WILL NOT MAKE YOU CHOOSE HIM OR LOVE HIM. HE WANTS US TO DO IT BECAUSE WE WANT TO, NOT BECAUSE WE HAVE TO. WE HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH JESUS LOVES US. I GUESS THE BEST EXPLANATION IS THAT "HE IS LOVE". LET'S MAKE IT OUR GOAL THIS WEEK TO GO OUT AND TELL SOMEONE ABOUT HOW MUCH JESUS LOVES THEM. HOW ELSE WILL THEY KNOW IF WE DON'T TELL THEM.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
