The Doctrine of Eternal Security
 

ETERNAL SECURITY is the Biblical doctrine that teaches that you, as a believer in Jesus Christ, can never lose your salvation regardless as to what sin you might commit. This is not the flippantly titled "Once Saved Always Saved" concept that opponents to this doctrine (Legalists and Religionists) satirize. You can also find other resources on Eternal Security here, with future studies to come. The following scriptures teach this Biblical Doctrine:

ROMANS 8.38-39

"FOR I AM PERSUADED THAT NEITHER DEATH, NOR LIFE, NOR ANGELS, NOR PRINCIPALITIES, NOR POWERS, NOR THINGS PRESENT, NOR THINGS TO COME (A reference to angelic demonic hierarchies. See Ephesians 6.12) NOR HEIGHTH, (Hupsoma, a reference to the Godhead) NOR DEPTH, (Bathos, the "deep things". A reference to the things of Satan) NOR ANY OTHER CREATURE SHALL SEPARATE US SHALL SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD WHICH IS IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD."

JOHN 1.12-13

"BUT AS MANY AS RECEIVED ( Elabon, Aorist, Received once and for all) HIM TO THEM GAVE HE POWER TO BECOME THE SONS OF GOD, EVEN TO THEM THAT BELIEVE ON HIS NAME. WHICH WERE BORN., NOT OF BLOOD NOR OF THE WILL OF FLESH, NOR OF THE WILL (Man didn't bring about his new birth. God did!) OF MAN, BUT OF THE WILL OF GOD."

GALATIANS 3.26

"FOR YE ARE (Eimi, Present Linear Action = Keep on being) ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS."

1 PETER 1.4-5

"TO AN INHERITANCE INCORRUPTIBLE (Aphthartos = not spoilable or perishable. We will never die) AND UNDEFILED, (Amientos = Not covered in dung, not garbage) AND THAT FADETH NOT (Amartantos = Cannot decay or rust due to outside influences) AWAY, RESERVED (Tereo, Perfect passive participle = Permanently reserved) IN HEAVEN FOR YOU, WHO ARE KEPT (Phroureo, Present Passive Participle = To mount guard over, concentrate, habitually fortify to prevent loss) BY THE POWER OF GOD THROUGH FAITH UNTO SALVATION READY TO BE REVEALED IN THE LAST TIME."

EPHESIANS 2.8

"FOR BY GRACE ARE YE SAVED (Sozo, Perfect Tense, Saved in the past with continuing results into the future) THROUGH FAITH, AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES; IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD, NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST
