TOPIC: SALVATION CAN BE LOST

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED

DATE: FRIDAY FEBRUARY 12

TOPIC: SALVATION CAN BE LOST  

TEXT: 1 Corinthians 15:1-2
1 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.

KEY VERSE: Exodus 32:33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, he will I blot out of my book. 

Some people teach the false doctrine that salvation cannot be lost. According to their teaching, if somebody believes in the Lord Jesus Christ and his name enters the book of life, such a person can never miss going to heaven whatever sin he goes into committing after the profession of faith. 

To them, the name of a child of God that entered into the book of life cannot be blotted out. With this, they give human beings license to commit every kind of sin without fear because they believe they will not miss heaven or lose eternal life. That is what they believe and teach. 

The early churches that teach this doctrine are called Calvinists because John Calvin was the one that propounded this false doctrine in the sixteenth century. These people follow on without proper investigation, without evaluating the conviction of their church fathers. 

The majority of churches in America believe in this and it has affected their faith in Christ. You tell a Christian that whatever happens, whatever he does, whether she commits adultery, abortion, or leaves her husband and marries another man, as long as she had accepted Jesus previously as Lord and Saviour, she would not lose eternal life. 

You tell a young man that as long as he had believed in the Lord Jesus, even if he joins a secret society or he becomes a wizard and goes into killing people he will still make heaven because once a son of God, always a son of God. What would that young man do? What would that woman do? They will not have inhibition to commit atrocities. This was how Christianity was killed in America. 

The people are not given to holiness and righteousness anymore because to them it is irrelevant. They believe that only those who want many rewards in heaven keep to righteousness and holiness. As for entry into heaven, they believe their works of holiness and righteousness are not required.

 It is like telling school students that as long as they can gain admission into the school and their names are registered as students of that school, they will get a certificate of graduation even if they decide to go back home after registration, whether they work hard for it or not; whether they attended classes or not; whether they write examinations or not; whether they pass or not. Will such students read again? But no school on earth operates this way. Similarly, heaven is not for sinners for without holiness no man shall see the Lord. 

Thought for the day: Sin in your life is heaven lost. 

Song for the day: Take time to be holy….

Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 14; Matthew 26:55-75

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
