Can a Christian lose their salvation

[Idolater]

Clearly you are here to deceive.

Discourse.

18 Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.

I believe that, the whole Bible (the whole Bible, all 73 books) is the Word of God and infallible and inerrant.

You don't have a leg to stand on with your works based religion.

I practice Jesus's religion, the religion He founded. If you call it "works based" as if that's a judgment, you're judging Him, not me.

Paul condemns you right here.

16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

So, don't sin. Plain.

Paul said it is not possible to sin, when you are under grace.

St. John says the same thing in his first epistle.

You pervert.

23 All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.

Elaborate. What does this mean, a Christian should not murder or rape or commit first degree perjury because it wouldn't edify? Not because it is sin, and that I am not under sin's dominion? and that I am dead to sin? not for those reason? but because it wouldn't edify? Is that what you mean?

I don't think that's Paul's point.

So, don't sin. If you sin sin clearly does have at least some dominion over you. That's just plain.

That’s the problem with the law (sin), if you mess up once you’re guilty of all.
The law just leads us to Christ, and nothing we do is counted against us anymore. Sin grabs your attention away from God. In fact, it’s like a fart in the wind ((please excuse my analogy), let it go and press on to the mark.

So, don't sin, no? There's a whole theology of sin, but the gist is, don't sin, no?

Really. I give you Matthew 25. Every thought of your heart condemns you to death. If you even look at a woman with lust, you’re guilty. If you get angry, you‘ve committed murder. Sitting in a closet telling a priest you lied won’t reach the Lord. You did it, and you’ll do it again and again. That’s why we need God’s mercy and grace.
