oh, how He loves us...

This song. Just wow. I can't even begin to describe how much I feel God when I hear it. Just listen to it. Even if you already know it. Just feel Him. He loves you so much. So, so much. We can't even comprehend it. Will we ever be able to?

This post was NOT supposed to turn into a debate. So I'm just gonna explain myself and stop so it doesn't end up like the last post.

When I said what I said I was refering to "once saved always saved" which is a lie. Just because you get saved doesn't mean you can't lose your salvation:

Matthew 13:18-23
18 “Listen then to what the parable of the sower means:
19 When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
20 The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears the word and at once receives it with joy.
21 But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away.
22 The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns is the man who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, making it unfruitful.
23 But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it. He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.” [NIV]

^the person can lose his salvation...

Also we are told to work out our salvation... to keep it.
Phil 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling

this verse speaks about someone being in the book of life (being saved) and then being blotted out:
Exodus 32:33 And the Lord said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.

2 Cor 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves.

James 1:22-24
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
^he used to know who he was... he lost himself.

Hope this helps. I'm really tired and didn't have time to REALLy get into it. But like I said, its your heart. And only God knows that. :) Love you all.

Love,
Bleah

I REALLY don't want to argue with you, because I love you! :) So after this I won't say anything else.


Like I said, God knows the heart. But if our heart goes away from God we can lose our salvation. Davis was a man after God's own heart, and Moses repented of his sin. REpentence saves. But when you don't repent and your heart goes away your salvation hangs in the balance.

Hope this helps.

Love,
