Home Church Teaches Our Attitude To Salvation?

By: Robert Fenn

1. Accept and enjoy the benefits

When you accept the offer, salvation takes effect immediately in your spirit. Your spirit is born again into a new creature. It comes alive. It was dead before. Only the born again experience brings life to the spirit of man. From then on, it is process of walking in the fellowship of God on a daily basis.
The Bible should become your guide and manual for living an enjoyable Christian life. There will be temptations and falling into it frequently in the beginning. You are learning and God is teaching you. You will go through this and the frequency will slowly decrease. Therefore, you will not need to face the question can I lose my salvation.

2. Time is the key

You will become mature and established by God himself as time progresses. You should not struggle to become holy or perfect overnight or ever on your own. All our holiness and perfection comes from believing on the cross.
All you need to do is to accept and say yes I cannot do it myself. Jesus has already accomplished all that, and I will accept that. Picture if you will that you cannot walk anymore but Jesus will carry you from now on, to reach my destination.

3. Reject and face consequences

The only way you can lose your salvation is to reject outright that the gospel message is a fairy tale. You made a mistake and you deice not to continue being the disciple of Christ. When you do that there is an issue here of whether you were ever born again and saved.
Because the new life from God will flourish and bear fruit if you were born. Jesus said you should know them by their fruit. Therefore, if you are struggling to bring the fruit that is understandable in the beginning, but if you are constantly living the same kind of unproductive life you used to live before, there is something wrong. If you are saved, your spirit is alive. Then you will live by the spirit and not the flesh.

4. We are the responders

When there is an offer, we need to respond. We can respond with a 'YES' or a 'NO'. If you do not respond, it defaults to a 'NO'. Therefore, you cannot take the middle way out and say I am not saying either yes or no. If you do not respond or say yes, it is a NO.
Therefore, if you are struggling and want to live a godly life, then you will never lose your salvation. However, if you decide you do not like it or want it, then you lose it by rejecting it yourself. Blame no one, God, or other fellow Christian. Therefore, you cannot really lose your my salvation.
