If your salvation can be lost by sin, then it can be kept by sin and has become a works based salvation, not a faith based salvation.

I don't think I have ever a heard of such a weird, contradictory, heretical statement as yours above.

I’m not surprised.

We are not saved by faith and kept by works.

It’s faith and grace all the way.

We can’t get ourselves saved and we can’t keep ourselves saved because if sin is what causes us to lose our salvation, there’s not a person on the planet who can accomplish that.

It’s an on again off again salvation, never knowing if you’ve done enough to earn God’s favor and merit heaven.

Galatians 3 addresses that.

Do prots read before they post? This with out a doubt the most inane contradictory statement I have read in a long long time.

Well; let ME correct THIS problem!


My Prayer to Our Mother Mary

Hail and praise be unto thee, Mary, whom God Almighty has exalted above all of his other servants!!
God has entrusted us unto your care and graciously grants any request that you make of Him on our behalf, if it is in accordance with His Divine Will.
Our hearts burn with zeal as we honor you, Our Mother.
We love you as a child loves a mother and you love us as mother loves her children.
Please guide us, your little ones, to our Eternal and Almighty Father God through our prayers and through your love for us.
Many in this world may slander and degrade you while still claiming to exalt God, please forgive them and pray for them for they may dishearten your devoted children.
May we be made worthy of the promises of Christ through your prayers.
You love us so freely and we are so unworthy of it.
You love us because God and Christ loved us first.
Mary, Mother, I love you.

Amen.
