ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED
( Part 2 )
But some of those that are saved and yet haven't worked for the Lord shall
be ashamed upon His return ...
Daniel 12 : 1 And at that time thy people shall be delivered,
every one that shall be found written in the book. And
many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall
awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and
everlasting contempt.
And yet that need not happen to us, if we Follow the Lord
Daniel 12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness
of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness
as the stars for ever and ever.
So once saved always saved, but if saved and filled with His Love we should automatically want to follow Him all the way to
the cross of our deaths.... and we shall have works that show we loved Him and others. Isn't that understandable and
encouraging , our righteousness isn't what's important because we can't save ourselves by our righteousness or even keep
ourselves saved by works of righteousness,
1Peter 1:5
Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation
ready to be revealed in the last time.
It is ALL JESUS if we give Him our lives and hearts and bodies. It's not our Power, but His POWER. Because even if we stop
believeing the gospel, the Word remains true and ifwe have already received it. It is done. Our salvation has been given because
we at ONE Time believed and RECEIVED JESUS. He remains true and faithful, and He can not take back what He has already
done. Salvation is not dependant on us and our works, it is a GIFT of God, that can not be taken from us. I can't repeat this
enough times
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the GIFT of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
So our salvation, isn't something that is here today gone tommorrow, if we truly got 'saved' by the Lord, then He remains with
us forever, and we don't have to be on a salvation roller coaster of doubts and fears.
Hebrews 13:5
Let your conversation (life style) without covetousness; and be content
with such things as ye have: (don't be materialistic) for He hath said, I will
never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
It's His promise to us, that He 'will never leave or forsake us,' and so all we have to do is believe it. It's His WORD, so just
believe it, and when you do, it'll change your life. For Jesus has never lost one of His sheep and you and I are not going to be
the first one ever lost. We have His Salvation, and we can't lose it. Once Saved, Always Saved.
But if we have it, we will work like everything to give it to others, not because we have to but because we are so thankful for
what we has given us. We serve Him because we love Him and KNOW that Jesus loves us.
In His Service

PS) But do remember, all that say they are saved may not be saved. because just a prayer or just a show of hands is not
enough, and only the Lord knows who has really given their hearts to Him. And so we can't be surprized if there are few that
have entered into the straight and narrow gate, as we each must work work out our own salvation with fear and trembling ....
knowing it is not a game but means our very soul and Eternity.
Philippians 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.
We have to make sure we have 'MEET OUR MAKER' ... JESUS
If you haven't ask Jesus into your heart today ! !
