Thou Shalt Not Surely Die

Genesis 3:4 And the serpent (Satan) said unto the woman, "Ye shall not surely die:

God had told Adam, that if he partook of the tree of good and evil, that is knowledge, that he would die. God was telling Adam that He would
die spiritually. Satan twisted what God had said and made it sound as though God was lying. By this implication, He was referring to their
physical death. That the fruit of the tree of knowledge was not poison to the flesh. It was a very deceptive and effective lie!

To this very day, that teaching is upheld by those who teach Unconditional Eternal Security and Once Saved Always Saved. These are
heretical and are, the doctrines of demons. Am I saying that those who listen to this, are demons? No, I am not. They listen to their pastors,
their shepherds. The leaders of these churches are being used to spread this deadly doctrine.

Romans 1:7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father,
and the Lord Jesus Christ.

The book of Romans is a letter by Paul, written to the Christians in Rome. These are those who are serving Christ. Within this letter are
exhortations to continue in the faith. There are also warnings that if you fall away, you will die. If once you are saved you are always
saved or have unconditional eternal security, and you can never fall away, why would it be necessary for such warnings?

Romans 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye
shall live.

Those who are proponents of Eternal Security, will tell you that this death, is physical death. That God will take your life. That you will
still go to heaven, if you continue in sin after you are saved. This scripture is about spiritual death. Paul taught very clearly what happens
if Christians lived after the flesh. To say that someone "was not saved in the first place," make these inspired words a lie. We know that
Paul was following after Christ and inspired of the Holy Spirit. So, if one was not saved in the first place, makes these words to Christians,
completely void and without any purpose.

(doctrines of convienience) Arminianism and Antinomianism

Again, Paul writes to those Christians in the Church at Galatia:

Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with
the yoke of bondage.

Once again, a warning. If once we are saved we are always saved. Or, if we have unconditional eternal security, why the warning? If it
is speaking of physical death? What are the sins unto spiritual death? Paul is writing to those who are saved, yet he tells them not to
return to these: He then also tells them, what will happen if they do.

Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness,
laciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings,
murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past,
that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Galatians 6:8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall
reap life everlasting.

As Paul is speaking to Christians, it is very clear that he is warning them not to return to such things. If they do, they will not inherit the
kingdom of God. If you do not inherit the kingdom of God, the other is: You die a spiritual death and are cast into outer darkness for all
eternity! He is speaking upon the Christians eternal separation from God, if they return to sin. We know what the unsaved will reap.
These are telling Christians that they can lose their walk with Christ if they return to sin after being saved.

Ezekiel 33:18 When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby.

Genesis 2:16,17 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely
eat: But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eat thereof thou shalt surely die.

Down through the time of man, Satan has perpetrated many false doctrines by twisting the meaning of the scriptures. Man has embraced
and taught, up through today that these deceptive doctrines are truth. Sin leads to spiritual death. God told Solomon to build a temple,
which Solomon did. Later, the temple was destroyed.

Here are more scriptures, telling us as Christians, that there are conditions to continuance in salvation. These are all conditional scriptures. If after we are saved we fall to living after the flesh. If we wilfully sin after knowing the truth. All these make Christ of none effect to us. We fall from grace.

Romans 8:12-14 Therefore, brethern, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh,
ye shall surely die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by
the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

1 Corinthians 15:2 By which ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

Hebrews 3:6 But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing
of the hope firm unto the end.

Hebrews 3:14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

Hebrews 10:36-38 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and not tarry. Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man
draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

Colossians 1:21-23 And you, that were sometimes alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now
hath he reconciled. In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreprovable in
his sight: If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which
ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;

Hebrews 10:26-29 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of truth, there remaineth no more
sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgement and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: Of how much sorer
punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted
the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of
grace?

Galatians 5:4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from
grace.

Once saved always saved or unconditional eternal security teaches that we are all predestined to salvation. That once we accept the
gift of salvation, we can never lose it. Regardless of the sin we commit. It teaches that if you murder, you are still saved, if you become
a drunk, you are still saved. If you commit adultry, you are still saved. Future sins are not forgiven. This is contrary to scripture. How
can something be forgiven that has not happened? Our sins of the past, up to the moment we accept the gift of salvation, are forgiven
and forgotten. But, if you do not continue in the faith, you lose! When we become saved, we are not put on a leash and led around as
a bunch of automatons. We still have choice.
We will not lose our salvation "if," we chose to remain in the truth of Christ. "If," we do not draw back. You cannot be in Christ and live like the devil. If you sin after you are saved, it is not under the blood of Christ, unless you confess and repent of that sin. If you do not confess and repent, you are lost. You are fallen from grace and back under the law.

2 Peter 2:9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

When you are born again, scripture says nothing about future sins being forgiven. Only those sins past and at the time of accepting the blood of Jesus Christ are forgiven!

What happens if a Christian does sin?

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

If we sin after we are saved, we are to confess our sins. We are THEN forgiven. If we do not confess, we are not forgiven. We become eternally, spiritually separated from God. We are not killed by God and brought to heaven.

There is no such thing as unconditional eternal security, or once saved always saved. But, there is biblical eternal security. As I have shown you, your security is in Christ, if you continue in the faith and do those things that are within God's will of his children. Now, before
you scream, "works, works, you are not saved by works. Read it again carefully. We must continue in those works that are good and
pleasing in God's sight. Remember, works of the flesh will not save us. But, we are judged according to our "good works," that are produced by Christ in us!

This biblical eternal security is not an open ended license for doing or continuing in deliberate sin and expecting to be with Christ in heaven, the New
Jerusalem or the new heaven or new earth. Continuing in deliberate sin after salvation, will place you in the fiery pits of hell for eternity!
