Continuing on with the prior post of why I believe what I believe:
There are those that say if you except Christ, you can never make a choice to walk away from God. In light of that, I am on a search to understand exactly what the Bible has to say about salvation vs. sin.
1 John chapter 3 is where I start. There are a number of verses that state, if you live in a state of sin yet call yourself saved, you are a liar. There are also verses that state if you have known God and depart, there is no hope for you. Where does the truth lie?
Is it possible to forfeit your salvation? Or as I have been told, will God just end your life early to save you from hell?
My question is, if God ends your life because you are sinning so bad, is he doing that so you won't reach the point of rejecting him?
The search will continue. Please pray that our Lord will open my eyes to his Word as I seek to know Him more.
