Those who love Him will remain faithful to the end. It is only by His love, His Holy Spirit in us that this is possible.

As for warnings and exhortations, they are for our own benefit and especially to help those to get established in the faith; and to help keep the wolves out.

 

That is why so many people get angry for hearing of repentance, sanctification and faith; those who do not love Him cannot do and love these things.

"No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day." - John 6:44

THAT IS THE REASON MY FRIEND .     THAT IS THE REASON and they don't even know it .

If a person wants to FEEL saved but walk in some disobedience sin ,   they will HATE the corrector , they will hate us even in person if we have not yet corrected them.

Example of the latter.    When I was asked to go to parties , or they were talking about wordly lusts etc and I would not even participate

IT MADE THEM HATE ME BIG TIME . JUST LIVING IT will cause them to hate .   ITS a subconscious reminder is why.

THEY KNOW if they see us doing it or teaching it ..............IT MEANT that had no excuse .  THEY could have too.  FOR ITS ONLY BY THE GRACE OF GOD we can do this .

WHICH means what ......................they are not under grace my friend , they under delusion and think its grace .    they will hate us .

WHEN we say go and sin no more , or etc ,   THEY will hate those reminders , cause they sin and want to FEEL saved.

An example and this has caused great hate by some in person .    THEY SEE JOY in me ,    they see peace in me ,   they ask about it

and sure they get encouraged.    BUT , and here is the but ,   but when they find out that I am single due to its ADULTERY for me to remarry

THEY then go about to find any excuse to find me false .    YET I did not approach them asking them why they had such peace and joy,   THEY approached ME

asking me why I had such peace and joy.    but as I said , once they find out you walking in obedience and they are not ,  THEY FLAG YOU AS FALSE .    it happens all the time .

Assuming they were His (as was mentioned, the Spirit not leaving them) God is not willing that any (of His) perish. He intercedes for His own (Book of Hebrews), not the world, and whatever He asks the Father will come to pass.

I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours. All mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
(Joh 17:9-12)
 

Agreed.    but the scary thing is yowm , a lot of folks THINK they follow JESUS , but don't and I mean a lot of so called Christians who even say HE is lord and the ONLY way

and that all is by grace .  YET they still don't follow him.     They are not saved , but in grave danger .  however by constant reminder

by speaking of JESUS and HIS sayings either they will hear or they wont .  but it has to get said and we all need reminders .

Even if we alrady know it .     how many times you come saying something that is true ,   and I just say praise the LORD or words to that effect

EVEN though I already knew it .     I seen you went to that coexist sight .    ITs just evil aint it .    what dung .   okay anyway back to the subject.    PRAISE THE LORD PEOPLES

The enemy is a liar, he lies every time. But blessed are you who are in the truth.

Rise up out of that chair my friend and dance unto the LORD .  just dance joyfully .      Blessed are you when men shall hate you for his name sake .  and they do hate

those who keep JESUS sayings if they do not keep them .   Its causes divisions and hatred.     After all these years of being hated and despised

the world would think ,why aint this man depressed ,  he got few friends ,  he aint got money ,  he is just made fun of.   

REJIOCE when you are persecuted is not just words........................ITS REAL MY FRIEND,  when one is persecuted for JESUS sake ,  REJIOCING hits the heart , IT DOES

His spirit rejoices and consoles those who are HIS .   as they suffer in any way for him ,  so too he consoles them, that they too can also console others as well.

TO THE LORD be the glory , to the LORD be the praise .    I GOT JOY , cause HE saved me , I got joy cause HE shed HIS Love on my heart which loves HIS sayings

and HE who honors the son , honors also the Father .     YEAH ,  its a win win no matter what we suffer , forthose who love him.

And they got no joy like those whose hopes are in CHRIST alone .     They got no real hope , whose affections have not been set above him.

And all is by grace .   but lusts can choke that word out of many and sin does harden a heart . THEREFORE lets hear the whole conclusion.

OBEY and FOLLOW HE WHO HAS SAVED US FOREVER unto the END .    PRAISE THE  LORD PEOPLES I feel a fire rejoicing my heart as I type .

PRAISE THE LORD ,   throw them hands up and leap up and dance about the room .   PRAISE THE LORD peoples ,  HAPPY is the one WHO HEARS and DOES HIS SAYINGS

and no matter what they suffer , they have HOPE , cause their HOPE is in HIM .  SING IT PEOPLES , whistle it , dance to it,  just Blessed be the LORD and praise His name.

I wouldn't worry about whether they are 'following Jesus'. The main thing is 'are they born again' (regenerated)? If so God will convict them, (we don't have to play Holy Spirit in their lives).

If they aren't born again, then yes, give them the Gospel, if they won't receive that then give them the law.

Yeah.  what was I thinking ,  I mean paul and james and peter and jude , those men , what were they thinking by warning the church ,  man they were playing HOLY SPIRIT

who do they think they were.     SEE THE POINT YET YOWM.     I am just doing what by grace all true believers have done in all ages .   EXHORT , remind , rebuke ,correct .

Just let it sink in .   I loves ya yowm.      I do .   just prayerfully may it sink in .

oh I hear you on one point   .     I don't come saying or assuming whether one who is in error is a believer or not .     I just correct is all.

Now ,  with that being said.     How dumb would I be if I said POPE FRANCIS knows GOD and is not leading any astray .    OR Kenneth copeland

or many others .    ITS easy to discern the true from the false .    from those who may be in error and just need correcting .   those who are HIS

will repent if they are found in error .  it will happen.   We just do the pattern set by Christ and the apostels .   You loved yowm.

Believe me , if ithought you were false , I would have told you.     I am just trying to remind us of the PATTERN the early church taught is all.

Yeah. They are Apostles, you aren't. They weren't playing Holy Spirit, they were giving us His Words but it was the Spirit who convicts..not Paul or James or YOU.

Say that again yowm for all to read and see.   YOU SPOT on ,  it aint ME that convicts ,  ONLY GOD can do that .  its just by HIS SPIRIT I exhort .

YOWM you spot on .   ITS not us who convicted ,  if it was I would have been able to convict everyone I spoke too.    MOST resist , SO yeah It aint me .

and the only few who did repent................that was not me either ..................it was GOD that led them , that convicted them.  And GOD that used us to simply do the exhorting .

We just planters or waterers and even that we can take no credit for   FOR ITS HIS GRACE within us doing the works .    MAN yowm,   you should really say this

again , and hey you can even use my name ,  just remember I agreed cause I by grace have long known this .  And yeah ,  I have assumed wrong about others before too.

SO you loved no matter what .

Can't you see how contradictory your statement is? Read it slow..besides it contradicts Scripture...

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.
(Rom 5:10)
 

("...Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!") (Revelation 16:15)

Tell me, how can a person who has never been awakened stay awake (or 'watch')? How can a man who has no garments keep them on?

Why would Jesus be warning unsaved people, who are asleep (spiritually dead), to stay awake (or 'watch')? And why would He tell unsaved people who are already naked and have no garment to keep on garments that they do not have? The garment is Him. This is for Christians.

Likewise with the Lord's warning to the church in Sardis. Unsaved people do not have garments to soil, and they have never been awake, and have never lived. Those Christians in Sardis died because they did not keep the doctrine they had received. The Lord warned those who were about to die to wake up and keep what they had received, lest the same happen to them. If it were impossible for the spiritually living to die again, the Lord's warning would be unnecessary. (Hebrews 6:4-6) Yes, it is possible for a Christian's name to be blotted out of the book of life. Only people whose names are in the book of life (sheep) can have them blotted out of it. The non-elect (goats) never have been and never will be in the book of life.

Again, Hebrews 10:26-31.

Forward ..............................................................................................................................     MARCH soliders of the LORD .     let on hearts be above on HIM.

And let all His sayings be loved .     For he who honors the SON , HONORS the Father .    And twisting or omitting JESUS sayings ,  AINT HONORING HIM .

 

[frienduff thaylorde]

You have LEFT YOUR FIRST LOVE ,  do the works you did at the FIRST ............

uhhh yeah believers can fall   ,   ITS WHY GOD warns REPENT OR ELSE .     they HAD something known as THE FIRST LOVE , which ONLY GOD can put on the heart

THEY were told they had it and needed to RETURN TO IT .     KEEP the garments spot free CHURCH ,  hear the SPIRIT , hear what it says .  

What on earth has happened to the mindsets of so many .
