Can I Lose My Salvation?

concerned person No, absolutely not. The Lord Jesus Christ has given us solid promises in His holy word, that are not meant to be twisted, re-arranged, or misconstrued. As a born again Christian you have the promise of eternal life, and Jesus will not go back on his word, condemn you for later sins, or boot you out of his kingdom.

Fear of losing your salvation are the lies Satan wants you to believe! So, you sinned after having repented; you have wrong, or impure thoughts, or commit sins after your coming to Christ. Well, guess what? So does everyone! Your salvation is assured by the atoning blood of Christ. God does not make promises only to break them later! Truly, Jesus wants us to be happy and confindent in our salvation. Doubt is a human failing, and struggling to re-interpret Bible verses will not only confuse us, but lead us down the wrong path.

We were all born into sin, but through the atoning blood of Christ, we have salvation. There are days when we wrestle with sin. That's the old man, the old nature in us. In 2 Corinthians 5:17, we are told that we are a new creation, born from a carnal nature. The "old things" that are passed away are the unsaved people we once were. All things that become new is our new life in Christ.

However, this is not an excuse to live a life of non-repentance, or deliberate sin. Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the price that we could not afford to pay. He paid for our sins, and each time we sin, we crucify him all over again.

God made it very simple for us. there's no need to twist scripture, or rearrange it in our heads to believe it has an alternate meaning. Our Lord has given us His word at face value, and there really is no room for doubt. I repeat: there is no room for doubt! Read his word, believe his word, and believe on his son who died for our sins.

Below are scriptural proofs that we cannot, and will not lose our salvation.

John 3:16:

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

There it is, and plain and simple as it can get: whosoever believes shall not perish, but have salvation.

John 10:28-30:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

30 I and my Father are one.
Again, the Lord Jesus is speaking to us in a perfectly straightforward manner: No one can pluck you out of God's hand. More importantly, God will not boot you out of heaven, because that would make his word in John 3:16 a lie.

John 5:24:

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Look at the key phrases here: believe, have everlasting life, and more importantly, shall not come into condemnation. Can you lose your salvation? No, absolutely not. God is very clear when he says "shall not come into condemnation."

Hebrews 13:5:
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
This is the Lord talking to us who have been born again. He's telling us that he's not going to leave us, forget about us, go back on his word, or forsake us forever. He says: "I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee."

John 10:29

29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
Read this verse very carefully.: "no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand." Jesus is not going to let go, and he's not going to let anyone take you away from him. Now if Jesus is not going to let anyone take you away from him, it stands to reason that he's not going to toss you aside, or give up on you.

1 John 5:13

These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Again, God's word is very clear, and very simple: believe and receive. You, as a born again Christian, will have eternal life.
