Thanks Cvengr. I think you have the same problem here though:
>>We confess our postsalvation sins to Him (not a new salvation, but simply a washing of those areas needing cleansing.) He is sure and just to forgive us those sins (1stJn 1:9)
And if you do not confess them, He does not “forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
That’s right. If we don’t return to Him and confess our sins to Him, we remain out of fellowship with Him. That is different than loss of salvation.
It just means there are lots of predestined rewards God had created for us, which at the bema seat we won;t qualify to receive and will lose those rewards for all eternity future.
