Salvation Lost…Never!
Hebrews 12; Hebrews 13; Jude 1
Scripture
Jude 1:24-25
“To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— 25to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.”
Observation
God saves those who put their faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and then Jesus Christ keeps us and presents us to our Heavenly Father without fault! God looks at a Christ-Follower and He only sees the Righteousness of His Son Jesus. We are righteous because Christ has exchanged His sinless life for our sinful lives. We are not and we will never be worthy of what God has given us…Salvation. We can’t work to get it, we can’t work to keep it, and once we have it we can’t lose it! End of story! It is all undeserved! It is all God!
Application
Don’t let anyone try to make you believe that “works” are necessary for salvation or that “works” are necessary to keep your salvation! A believer in the Lord Jesus Christ is capable of committing any sin. There is no sin that a Christian commits that could cause him or her to lose their salvation. Our salvation is not based on what sin or sins we did or did not commit, our salvation is based on what Christ did for us on the cross! Period!
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help those that can’t understand this truth to get it. Show them your truth and keep them from harming other believers with their teaching. Thank you for saving me and providing forgiveness for my sins, past…present…and future!
