Joel 188: Can You Lose Christ? Hebrews says it is impossible to be saved again... Now what?
We start today with a letter from Luke from Ohio. Great letter! Thanks Luke!
We’re going into our structure of noncompletion... we never complete any subject we start. We’ve got loose ends and we hope to get to them. We’re in a mini-series prompted by a letter from our internet audience.
There are five admonitions in the book of Hebrews and our pastor lists them off for us. We’re dealing with the 1st the fourth and fifth. Calvinists will not admit what they’re talking about, but they use Hebrews 6 and Hebrews 10. Hebrews 6 discusses the impossibility that you can be saved again, implying outright that you cannot lose your salvation. Pastor lists some of the “Whosoever calls on the name of the Lord” passages. Does super deterministic precepts comply with Romans 10:11? Jesus says to come to Him... He shall give you rest. Psalms 95:8 says it so plainly, and pastor reads from that passage... which disproves Total Inability. God says “I have no bias.” He has no partiality because He has no sin.
Everyone who believes those five things in Hebrews 6 cannot be born again and therefore Christ cannot be lost. You cannot determine the saved from the unsaved. Read Matthew 23, the woes to the Pharisee’s. And Hebrews 2:9 clenches it about Christ tasting death for EVERY ONE. Who’s Everyone? Even though, not everyone is going to be saved. This passage of Hebrews 6 wipes out the determinism of the Calvinists and the loss of salvation of the Arminianism.
We’re only half way through this lecture and you can bet there is much more great stuff to come. I’ll stop typing here so you can listen on your own.
Have a great Christmas and a blessed new year.
