“Once Saved, Always Saved is a 16th century Protestant belief. It has no Biblical basis nor is it historical.”
So how often must you be saved? Once a week? A day? A month? How do you know when it’s enough? I somethimes think the Protestant movement was started by people too lazy to follow all the rules you folks seem to have. By the way, is there Biblical basis for needing to be saved over and over?

How often have you pushed God away through sin? We are redeemed ONCE. But most of us fall away through multiple times in our lives.
“How do you know when it’s enough?”
If you have a well-formed conscience, then this isn’t hard to know. People usually know when they’re mired in sin.

We really have few more rules than early Protestants. We just believe they matter as discipline.
“By the way, is there Biblical basis for needing to be saved over and over?”
It isn’t that we are saved over and over again. It is that we are open to the salvation offered to us. Sometimes were simply not open to it because of sin. There are plenty of Protestants who believe that OSAS is a flawed doctrine. They’re right.
