I don't "have a church," Bill. Jesus has a church; it is His church, not mine.
Hi Beter,
I do believe we call this "wiggling." You, I, and all of our Forum Friends know exactly what I was asking. But, if you cannot answer, not a problem. Before I was involved in a church, I could not have answered that question either.
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

If anyone is wiggling, Bill, it is you.
Hi Beter,
It is "wiggling and squirming" for you said that what my church teaches is wrong. So, I have asked you to tell us what YOUR church teaches on salvation and eternal life.
Simple. If my church is wrong -- then share what YOUR church teaches and maybe I will switch. Sounds fair to me.
But, of course, you will not answer.
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
Bill, this might be difficult for you to understand, but everything that I have posted here is in firm agreement with with what my fellow Christians--with whom I have met met regularly for over 30 year to praise and worship God--believe and teach about salvation and eternal life. I do not ask you to accept or justify what any "church teaches." I ask you to either accept the clear teaching of scripture--which I have set forth above--relative to salvation and eternal life or to say why you do not accept it.
I refer, in particular, to the teaching in II Peter 2 that I have very thoroughly explicated, above, to fully set out why I believe that it teaches that a saved person can sin so as to be lost. I could wish that you would be as thorough in your response, but so far you have made no response at all. I must therefore conclude that you have no credible response.
If you are as committed to the truth of the Word as you claim to be, and if you truly believe that the passage in question does NOT teach what I have said it teaches, then you should have already offered your position in the matter. Unfortunately, you have not.
