CB:I’ll ask it again. So if you believe that Christ is in you what happens upon your death? Does He just abandon you at that point then?

MB:Since you have abandoned Christ (another term for sinning), He will send you to the fate you have chosen. If you refuse Christ, what does He say about you?

Just wow......

Olympic grade deflection and topic changing.

How about just answering the question?

I think certain people have "cheap grace". That God only gives us a gift if we first work for it, but he can take it back anytime we're "bad". Kinda like a toy you'd give to a child and then take it away when they're grounded.

But that isn't the kind of gift God gives us. His cost a great deal, a "pearl" of great price, and he freely gives it to us if we will receive it. How then can something be given freely, offered by grace, but then taken away for any and all reasons? Tell you what, they can keep their cheap grace. I'll hold dear the one that is so precious that I will never want to lose it, so wonderful that I cannot lose it. That is REAL grace, not the counterfeit, pretended one.

I did. If you abandon Christ, Christ will abandon you at the Judgement. Remember? I never knew you...
