Is This The Unforgivable Sin? Did You Lose Your Salvation?
It’s always been a very controversial passage of scripture. Hebrews 6:45 and 6. People have read that passage of scripture and they have somehow concluded you can lose your salvation. Is it possible for you to have faith or is it impossible? Herein is both the problem and the answer to the uh scripture that’s before us.
Well, everybody, welcome to the show today and we’re glad that you’re with us and we want to uh always always invite you to uh tell others if in any way, shape or form that our getting together is something that communicates to you something that’s challenging, makes you think, uh makes you research the scriptures or and or the news or whatever we might be talking about.
Uh even though I’m a pastor and a Bible teacher, um I um I don’t want to limit my my life in any way, shape, or form, but I want to take my faith everywhere I go and into every topic of life. Um I I’m a big fan of uh full biblical immersion into all things of this world. Um I I think I got that from Jesus and simply reading the Bible.
I didn’t read it in a book. I didn’t hear it in a sermon. It just makes sense to me that everything that you and I experience in life from breathing to reading to movie to news to uh you name the topic, you name the discipline, biology, archaeology, the sciences, I believe that the Bible leads the way. I really do.
And uh that said, if there’s anything that we discuss uh in to to help your friends out or to even challenge your friends or to maybe even um uh what’s the word putting it nicely, exhort them. In other words, create a healthy argument about truth, then we’re all for that. And we’re excited about that. So, I want to go uh to a a verse that or a passage of scripture that I heard recently.
It’s been brought up numerous times. It depends uh on what’s going on, but it’s always been a very controversial passage of scripture. Uh it’s uh again something that should not be controversial. But when we read the Bible in its context, when we ask the diagnostic questions of either the book of the Bible that we’re reading or the the author himself, could be John, it could be Matthew, it could be Moses.
What do we know about them? What can we know about them? What can we find out about them? When did they write? That’s by the way you can know that. When did they write uh what what was going on in their world in world history at that time? What was happening? What was the chronology and what was the uh atmospherics of their age? For example, the New Testament.
So what was life like in the New Testament era of of the first say 200 years uh from the advent of Christ? Those things are extremely important to know and when we don’t know them, we wind up falling into uh ill interpretations of scripture that wind up often leading us to wrong conclusions. Um, please understand that God didn’t give us the Bible to confuse us or mess us up. The exact opposite.
