I disagree as this would contradict a substantial portion of the New Testament teaching on the security of the believer. We have to be careful with one verse theology.

Obviously you twist scripture to get the result you want...does that make it is okay to constantly sin and believe you can go to heaven...NO< if so Jesus died in vain.

I guess you think confessing to a priest gives a person protection and absolves them until the next time they commit adultery, murder, theft, etc? No...if one intentionally sins with the belief that they can keep doing it because there is no consequence..means they now have a ‘reprobate’ mind and a false sense of Salvation.

The Scripture itself explained the circumstances in which one could lose their salvation, and that in no way eliminates the other scriptures where the security of one’s faith in Christ is secure. Evidently, you do not understand the nine gifts of the Spirit or what the Holy Bible is referring too or you would have understood the meaning.

. No you can’t take one or two ...even ten Scriptures and negate even one other Scripture with them, the Bible interprets itself and you don’t get to pick and choose what is relevant in your opinion....otherwise you trample truth.

My whole point was that there are places of faith where you will not lose your Salvation, but that does NOT negate the one place where you could? Obviously you aren’t Spirit filled and operating in the Nine Gifts of the Spirit or you would understand what I meant. Hebrews Ch Six Vs One refers to Christian maturity and leaving elementary understanding, before he explains where the one place you could lose Salvation rests.

I don’t need you to agree or disagree with me, it’s God’s Word Not yours or mine...it will defend itself or God will defend it. I won’t argue the Word, I just presented you with the truth about a blanket statement that wasn’t wholly the fullness of what God meant about Salvation.
