Most who believe OSAS/eternal security are not honestly seeking to apprehend and embrace the truth, they’re looking to justify a mere cliché which actually, blatantly contradicts what’s in black and white in the Bible, God’s Word.
False teachers promise you that God is going to hold on to you no matter what. False Doctrine. 1 Timothy 1:19 says that we are to hold faith. Look at the parable of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15. The father (represents God the Father) did not hold on to the son. He let him rebel. The son chose to not hold the father, and went away from him, departed. The son was responsible to repent and return to the father and it was only when he did so that he was restored (Luke 15).
“HOLDING FAITH, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:” 1 Timothy 1:19
If departing from the faith, if it were not possible to “put away” faith, please explain why the Bible uses such language. Better yet, repent of your OSAS mythological heresy and obey God’s Word.
People who believe that a saved person cannot possibly “put away” themselves from the faith are lying against the truth. If you are “AWAY” from someone, you are not with them. The eternal securists are deliberately deceived because they refuse the cross, the crucified life, they want to live as they please and refuse personal accountability before the LORD.
The further we burst forth in history toward the return of Christ, the further men “depart from the faith,” from sound doctrine (1 Timothy 4:1-2; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; Jude 3, etc.). This is all the more reason that the true disciple must never depend on other man but rather must diligently and daily devour God’s Word for himself just as we are instructed to do (2 Timothy 2:15).
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15
Many are falling away, just as our LORD foretold it would be in these final days leading up to His soon return (Matthew 24:11, etc.). Paul echoes this truth:
“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times SOME SHALL DEPART FROM THE FAITH, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” 1 Timothy 4:1
“Some dare say that ‘If anyone leaves the faith, he was never saved.’ Isn’t the same as saying ‘If anyone leaves Atlanta, he as never there’?” A.
The Greek for “depart”:
aphistēmi
af-is’-tay-mee
From G575 and G2476; to remove, that is, (actively) instigate to revolt; usually (reflexively) to desist, desert, etc.: – depart, draw (fall) away, refrain, withdraw self.
One such “doctrine(s) of devils” that leads to departing from the faith (as it did with Adam and Eve – Genesis 2:17; 3:4), is that a born again believer can’t possibly “DEPART from the faith.” The Bible says there are those who will “DEPART from the faith” which means it’s possible and you have to have saving faith in the first place to be able to “depart” from it, part with it (1 Timothy 4:1).
Whenever you hear a man say that a born again believer could never stop believing, could not “DEPART from the faith,” you know you are listening to a full blown heretic. Jesus taught that a man can believe, be saved, and then “fall away.”
“They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while BELIEVE, and in time of temptation FALL AWAY.” Luke 8:13
FLASH POINT! If someone believes a false doctrine, what does that mean? It means they also have a demon!
“Seducing spirits and doctrines of devils” are mentioned and married together in 1 Timothy 4:1-2.
The only way to be deceived to to not love God’s truth (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12), to not have ones heart totally given over to the LORD (2 Corinthians 3:16-18).
“The working of Satan” is directly allowed in the lives of those who “received not the love of the truth” whereby God Himself sends them “strong delusion.” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12)
The BIBLE says “some SHALL depart from the faith” and so how is it that you are lying against the LORD by saying it’s not possible?
“If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:” 2 Timothy 2:12
Notice: “if we deny him, he also will deny us:”
Believing the heresy of eternal security/OSAS is your ticket to being lukewarm and rejected by Christ (Revelation 3:15-16).
OSAS/eternal security is the sin-justifying myth espoused by moral cowards who refuse to truly repent, lay down their life, and follow Jesus for real (Luke 9:23-24; 1 John 2:4; 3:18, etc.). Hell awaits all counterfeits who vainly believe they’re going to use Jesus to get to Heaven without literally following, worshiping, OBEYING Him on earth. They are living a fairytale! Repent now. Eternal Security is a lie from hell and the doctrine of moral cowards who refuse to truly repent, deny self, take up the cross, live the crucified life, and endure to the end.
Are you a pessimistic pansy or an optimistic overcomer? Are you like the 10 spies or the 2 who entered the promised land while the 10 sad sack whiners were shut out? “The righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1) Jesus asks “WHERE is your faith?” (Luke 8:25) Repenting for real and putting all your trust in the LORD is essential – and no one will be in the promise land of Heaven without sound, solid faith in God. “Without faith it is impossible to please him.” (Hebrews 11:6). “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” (Jeremiah 17:5)
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“Is Jesus the GOOD shepherd? Then he loses NONE of HIS SHEEP. It would be illegal to put in hell people Jesus bought and paid for. Rev. 5:9 End of discussion!”
REPLY:
Not so. What about the 5 foolish virgins who were espoused/engaged to Him and yet were shut out of His eternal bridal chamber due to neglecting Him, the Bridegroom? (Matthew 25:1-13) You act as if certain pet Scripture verses are more divinely authoritative than others. False. Jesus lost Judas who is now in hell – remember, you know that Judas who was promised an eternal throne in heaven (Matt 19:28), the Judas whom Jesus elected to the highest office of the church, one of the original 12 apostles, oh and whom Jesus sent out to heal the sick, preach His Gospel, and even raise the dead, remember him? (Matthew 10:1-8)
“THAT WHICH I HAVE COMMITTED UNTO HIM”
Yet more examples of how eternal securists conveniently, deliberately miss the conditions:
“For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.” 2 Timothy 1:12
“KEEP YOURSELVES in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. … Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,” Jude 21, 24
If you will escape the flames of eternal damnation, you must repent right now, seek God, get completely honest, deny self, take up the cross, and follow Jesus. Making Peace with God
You got saved? Stay saved!
ONLY those who repent and believe on Jesus AND then “continue” with Him to the end of their life in this world, in His Word, are going to be blessed and only they will be in Heaven (Matthew 10:22; 24:13; John 8:31-32; 15:1-6; Romans 11:20-22; 2 Peter 2:20-21, etc.).
“Eternal life is eternally secured only when it is finally received at judgment. That’s when the Book of Life is opened and if one’s name is written there. The salvation that we receive on earth is salvation/redemption from past sins and is temporal, and must be guarded and protected until we endure unto the end of our faith, our lives in this world, abiding in the righteousness of Christ.” Don
Jesus says to His own that they must “endure to the end” to be saved into eternal glory (Matthew 10:22; 24:13). It’s only the counterfeits, those who refuse to truly repent and live the crucified life, are looking to justify their rebellion with the false doctrine of a guaranteed “eternal security.”
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“Jesus is well capable of keeping all those who the Father has entrusted to Him.”
REPLY:
True and Jesus says He requires that they endure to the end, they hear His voice and follow Him (present tense), to abide (remain, continue in Him) or they lose all – will be cast into the fire (Matthew 10:22; 24:13; John 10:27-29; John 15:6, etc.).

IF you desire to truly hear from GOD, read His own Word for yourself. King James Bible.
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17
“Nourished Up” – like a wise virgin Heaven bound saint.
“If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.” 1 Timothy 4:6
On this biblical topic of fervency, of being “fervent in spirit”, one commentary offers the following:
“Nourished up in the words of faith” is a biblical phrase from 1 Timothy 4:6, meaning to be continually fed, strengthened, and built up by scripture, sound Christian teaching, and doctrine, much like food sustains the body, these spiritual words sustain and grow the soul, leading to spiritual maturity and a deeper walk with God. It signifies a deliberate, ongoing intake of God’s truth, which fosters growth, guards against false teachings, and fuels a believer’s life.” (Source?)
It’s one thing to have a mere human giving you encouragement and yet another thing to get your encouragement, your spiritual nourishment from God—directly. King James Bible.
Psalms 73
“Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
7 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
10 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
16 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
19 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
20 As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
21 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
22 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
23 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28 But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.”

“Fervent in Spirit” [podcast]
“Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;” Romans 12:11
Concerning being “fervent in spirit,” one commentator notes that this means to:
“Maintain zeal to the boiling point.” Dake
“Fervent” – A primary verb; to be hot (boil, of liquids; or glow, of solids), that is, (figuratively) be fervid (earnest): – be fervent.
“Do nothing at any time but what is to the glory of God, and do every thing as unto him; and in every thing let your hearts be engaged.” Adam Clarke
“Never let your zeal flag (lag, drop, tank), maintain the spiritual glow, serve the Lord.” Here we are reminded of the words of Jeremiah 48:10: ‘Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully,'” Believer’s Bible Commentary
Apollos was “fervent in the spirit.”
“This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being FERVENT in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.” Acts 18:25
In all things Christ’s saints are to be “fervent in spirit”:
“Not slothful in business; FERVENT in spirit; serving the Lord;” Romans 12:11
Disciples of Jesus are to have a “fervent mind” toward all saints and ministers of His blessed Gospel:
“And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your FERVENT mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.” 2 Corinthians 7:7
“Fervent prayer” is to be offered to God for other of His saints:
“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual FERVENT prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” James_5:16
Jesus’ people are to have “fervent charity among” ourselves:
“And above all things have FERVENT charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.” 1 Peter 4:8
“Fervent heat” will soon consume the wicked who refused the salvation that comes from Christ alone:
“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with FERVENT heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” 2 Peter 3:10
“Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with FERVENT heat.” 2 Peter 3:12
On this biblical topic of fervency, of being “fervent in spirit”, one commentary offers the following:
“2 Peter 3:
To be ‘fervent in spirit’ means to have intense, burning passion, zeal, and enthusiasm for spiritual matters, often linked to serving God, rather than being lukewarm or apathetic. It implies being ‘boiled’ with spiritual energy, actively engaged, and diligent in faith, as described in Romans 12:11, (‘not slothful in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord’). It’s a passionate, fiery commitment, distinct from fanaticism, involving earnest application and a deep love for God.
Key aspects:
- Intensity: A deep, glowing, or boiling heat of emotion and dedication.
- Diligence: Not being lazy or half-hearted, but actively applying oneself to spiritual duties.
- Spiritual Zeal: A strong desire and excitement for God’s will, the Gospel, and spiritual growth.
- Source: Often described as being moved by the Holy Spirit, a fire within.
- Biblical Example: Apollos was described as ‘fervent in the spirit’ as he taught diligently about the Lord (Acts 18:25).
- Passionate prayer
- Diligent study of God’s Word
- Active, loving service to others
- Bold witnessing for faith
- Being ‘on fire’ for God, not lukewarm”
Jesus says that those in His church who are “lukewarm” will be spued or rejected (Revelation 3:15-16). What’s the opposite of being “lukewarm”? – being “fervent in spirit.”
“Amen! Don’t let your fire die as the church in Laodicea did! They were neither cold nor hot. They were lukewarm. Comfortable! Indifferent! Their fire for the Lord had gone out. God’s not looking for people who play it safe but people who burn with fire for Him!!!” Karen Cochran
YOUR PRAYER: LORD, make me Yours. Please keep me close to You, NO MATTER what it takes. Break me dear LORD. Let the holy light of Your presence permeate and shine through my inner man. I am Your temple Jesus. Shine Your light on all darkness. I love You my LORD. In Jesus’ name.

It’s not all Going to be Pretty [podcast]
“Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.” 2 Timothy 2:3
One of Paul’s resumes of the sufferings he endured as an apostle of Jesus Christ.
2 Corinthians 6:3-10
“3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;
6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,
7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;
9 As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;
10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.”
You are His. Cling to Him. The LORD Jesus is going to bring you through, not matter what you face (Deuteronomy 13:4).
“But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. 2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.” Isaiah 43:1-2
“Hated”
“And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.” Matthew 10:22
“Ye shall Laugh”
“And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. 21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. 22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.” Luke 6:20-22
“Through much Tribulation”
“Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.” Acts 14:22
Eternity with Christ, “with Joy”
“For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:12
“To Make them White”
“And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. 33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. 34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. 35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.” Daniel 11:32-35
“Made white … the wise shall understand”
“Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.” Daniel 12:10
