More on 1 Cor 9:27

NOTE, the words or term “loose Salvation” are not in the bible, in fact there is nothing using the word “loose” associated with salvation.

1 Cor 3:13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

V-14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

V-15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

Please read verse 15 again. “but he himself shall be saved; yet by fire.

Our works that were of the law, and of vanity, and for glorifying ourself, will be burnt as chaff, and we’ll loose those rewards, but it has nothing to do with loosing our salvation, because as Paul said, “

“but he himself shall be saved;”

Please explain what this means to you.

JH :-) G-nite all

First of all, I did not say loose salvation. I said lose salvation.

Secondly, this passage is about man being saved because of his works and is silent on a man who has no works, who is not working at being a christian, who has fallen away.

Thirdly look at this from James

James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

Therefore

Someone who does not endureth temptation, can not receive the crown of life.
