3/6/2023 0 Comments Eternal Security of BelieversDoes Mt 6:7-15 and 18:21-35 mean that a believer can lose their salvation that they are already given because of their sins of commission or omission?
If they do mean that, then Scripture has contradicted Scripture. But reading the context makes it plain that the "forgiveness" here withheld from God is different the complete forgiveness of sins freely given to all believers at the moment of their salvation. In order to come to the right interpretation about these passages, the reader must believe the entire Bible does not contradict itself, and not disregard any doctrine that is taught therein. That means they will at least study the context of the text. And if the reader doesn't approach the Bible in this way, then they will arrive at a wrong conclusion and contradict the Bible. And their insistence on their position will be exposed as only stemming from their own prejudice and laziness.
