Excerpt from the book Lie of the Ages

To His Own, Jesus says …

“If a man abide (remain, continue) not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.” John 15:6

Testifying concerning his walk with the LORD and how he was initially misled by his then leaders, Brian Ivey writes:

“I was saved in my home church at the age of 12. I knew then God had been speaking to my heart and went down the aisle and said the prayer and repented and received Jesus. My life was clearly changed as I had been born again. Then, after being saved, I was immediately told by those same pastors that I was ‘once saved always saved.’ I believed this and though knowing I had been saved, I went right out and continued living a sinful lifestyle. Since I was ‘once saved always saved’ I reasoned ‘why should I change my ways?’ Well, being a brand-new believer in Christ, I took these leaders and their teaching literally. Following this I grew older and was faced with many temptations and I followed those temptations and did not resist them, thinking I was ‘once saved always saved.’ While living in sin I knew full well I was in the wrong. I remembered what I was told, ‘once saved always saved’, and continued believing this for about 7 years. Then, I went to a friend’s church one night and the leader was talking about salvation and that ‘once saved always saved’ was a lie from the devil. At the hearing of this truth my heart was convicted again of my sins and I repented afresh and went thru a discipleship program on how to walk with God. Since then I have often wondered how many people have been led astray to believe ‘once saved always saved’ who really think that they are eternally secure no matter how they live. This is very disturbing. I was headed for destruction and didn’t know it, but God intervened and saved me again. My prayer is that people will have the chance to know the whole truth about salvation before it’s too late.”

Was Brian offered biblically blessed assurance or blessed presumption? Brian was told that God loved Him, yet there was no hint to what the LORD required of him (Mic. 6:8; 1 Pet. 1:15-16). Brian was never told that the LORD wanted him to choose to love God with all of his heart, mind and strength (Matt. 22:37-39; Jn. 14:21). Was this new believer (babe in Christ) led to believe he could presume upon and take advantage of God’s grace? (See Rom. 6:1-2, 15; 2 Cor. 6:1.) Was Brian told about denying the self-life and lifting up Jesus in all things, fearing God, the essential of personal holiness, living his life by faith, the danger of falling away, trusting and fully obeying the LORD in all things He commanded, etc.? Was Brian instructed to “desire the sincere (pure) milk of the word” to grow as a believer and that God’s Word is final authority and to be studied and obeyed? (See Ps. 119; Lk. 4:4; 1 Pet. 2:2.) Was this new believer informed about nurturing intimacy in his new relationship with Jesus? Was there any hint of personal responsibility and accountability communicated to this new saint in order to help him to walk at peace with the LORD? Or, was Brian given man’s blessing to be presumptuous upon the grace of God and a license to be as irresponsible as he wished?

Brian is like millions today who have been lied to by their very leaders to believe something the Bible never teaches—an unconditional eternal security (Isa. 9:16).

Of the deluded religious leaders of his day, the prophet Ezekiel says:

“Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life.” ~ Ezekiel 13:22

Ezekiel the prophet cites the false teachers of his day for doing two evil things:

“With lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad.”
“Strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life.”

The Holy Spirit reveals here that the “heart of the righteous” remnant is made “sad” by the false prophets who “with lies” strengthen the position of those who while claiming to be followers of Christ, live in unrepentant sin. Those who teach unconditional eternal security lie against the truth (James 3:14). In the LORD’s eyes, they are liars.

Promising eternal life, assurance with God to any person who is not born again, abiding sanctified in Christ, is sin! Stop it now. Ask God to forgive you! Begin preaching repentance. Memorize Proverbs 28:13.

“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13

Only a deceiver would give hope to a “Christian” who is living in sin. It doesn’t matter if one believes he is a deceiver or not, if the Word of God reveals that we are teaching falsehood, such is obvious (2 Tim. 3:7, 13; Titus 1:10-12, 15-16).

“Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?” ~ Malachi 2:17

How had God’s people “wearied the LORD?” When they said that “Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them.” Did you catch this? The LORD said that it wearied Him when His people that were sinning people (in the church) were said to be “good in the sight of the LORD” and also said that “He (the LORD) delighted in them.” God is holy and unchanging and does not see sinning people as “good” or delightful, regardless of whether or not that person served the LORD in the past. The Word instructs “The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity” (2 Tim. 2:19).

“He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.” ~ Proverbs 17:15

Is it okay to believe OSAS? Is it okay to believe ANY heresy – anything that does not agree with God, with His written Word? No.

QUESTION: IF Adam and Eve who were born sinless, who were in perfect communion with God, who NEVER knew sin, fell only AFTER they were told by Satan that they were “eternally secure”, how could those possibly born in sin not fall away? hmmmmm Satan himself is the author of the doctrine of “once saved always saved.” See Genesis 2:17; 3:4.

Anita Padgett writes: “I just want to say I’m very pleased with you speaking out against that ‘once saved always saved’ doctrine. Somebody has to stand up to it. You have been ordained for this very day and age, so don’t give up. I believe those who preach that doctrine may mean well but there is not one Scripture that says that we can profess Christ and go back out in sin. No matter how hard they try to interpret the Scriptures it just does not say that! I was a part of a church that preached that … but it’s leading people astray. It leads people to believe ‘I’m saved by grace and that means I can do anything I want,’ and it’s leaving people worse off than what they were before coming to know the Lord. I have a very dear close relative who was under that preaching for a long time and he of course left the church and returned to sin and addictions. All he knows is, ‘I’m saved by grace,’ and he’s really messed up now. That false doctrine makes people think they have a license to sin. In fact, that very same pastor who taught that doctrine adamantly, preached it so much that now his own son who was raised in this Baptist Church is gone out into homosexual living. And of course, he has been taught ‘I’m saved by grace, so I can do whatever I want.’ Well I know one thing for sure, no homosexual is going to enter into the Pearly Gates of Heaven. I believe, had the Pastor taught about our need to turn from our sins—not just professing Christ and going back in sin—things would have been different for them. I truly believe it. The pastor is to be blamed as well as those who hear this heresy – just as Adam and Even were accountable when Satan first told this life in Genesis (2:17; 3:4). I do know that teaching ‘I’m saved by grace. I’m going to be sealed forever, so I can do whatever I want,’ has a lot to do with it. It’s a horrible teaching, it’s a stumbling block for the blind, and it comes straight from the pit of hell. Glory be to God. Amen.”

The Damning Myth of Un-Conditional Eternal Security!

RADIO: OSAS Debate Todd Tomasella and Chris Bradford [podcast]

Eternal Security / OSAS (Once Saved Always Saved)

WHY do eternal securists get all upset when their fairy tale is exposed? Well, they are hiding behind the thin veneer of this heresy, feeling all secure, emboldened to live as they please, feeling assured in their lukewarmness and sin … denying Jesus instead of self, refusing to take up the cross that Jesus commanded all who would follow Him truly (Luke 9:23-24). Christ’s apostle Paul speaks of self-serving “enemies of the cross of Christ.” (Philippians 3:18-19) What’s behind this myth? The Psychology of Eternal Security [book]

IS DOUBTING YOUR SALVATION ALWAYS A BAD THING?

Making Sure We are Truly Saved While We Still Can Obviously, the assurance of salvation should concern each and every one of us. “For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.” 1 Corinthians 11:31-32 Notice “if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.” Note that those who honestly assess and amend their ways in the LORD will not be judged with the wicked. Those who don’t, will be. They will fall away and not […]

Did Paul Preach on Hell?

Yes, Paul Certainly did Preach Hell To say or insinuate that Paul didn’t preach on hell would be to say that he preached “another gospel” (2 Corinthians 11:4; Galatians 1:6-9). “The apostles’ doctrine” is the doctrine, the doctrines of Christ, what the Savior taught, given to the apostles and spread to the world via them (Acts 2:42). Remember how Jesus blessed and broke the bread then gave it to His twelve and then those apostles gave it to the people? (See John 6:11.) Is this not a biblical, a divine model to consider, to behold? “And Jesus took the loaves; […]

Putting God First [podcast]

If God’s Word isn’t important to you, it’s because He isn’t important to you.

If anything comes before the LORD in your day, you are an idolater.

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” Exodus 20:3

GOD’s WORD cannot get into you if you aren’t into it.

“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

Jesus commanded:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33

As you seek God, putting Him first, you are not going to be able to prevent, to stop His blessings coming upon your life. 100%

Memorize this promise from your Savior, today.

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33

What putting Christ first looks like:

Prayer.

“Early will I seek thee.” Psalms 63:1

Read. Study.

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. Job 23:12

The Bible is far from just amazing information (Psalms 119:98-100; 2 Peter 1:3-4, etc.). More important than vital information coming from our Maker, God’s Word is your spiritual food and without it, without daily ingesting it, you will famish, fall, and ultimately perish.

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” 1 Peter 2:2

Read that again: The only way to “grow” is to “desire” and to devour the Word of your great God and King Jesus. He made you to know Him (John 17:3).

The only way to keep, to guard your heart before the LORD, is to keep it full of God’s Word.

“Keep (guard, till the soil of) thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

In fact, like Job, we must make the spiritual food of God’s Word more important than the food that fuels and keeps healthy our physical body.

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

“He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart RETAIN my words: keep my commandments, and live.” Proverbs 4:4

“Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” Psalms 1

Find. Eat. Rejoice.

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

YOUR PRAYER: Father please unite my heart to fear Thy name. Forgive my sins of spiritual adultery, of self-idolatry. Here and now I renounce my own ownership on my life. It’s Your life LORD. Reign on the throne of this heart and cut away, circumcise any and everything of iniquity in my heart and life. You must increase but I must decrease, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Victory Over “Evil Concupiscence” and Every Sexual Sin [podcast]

“Flee fornication”

“Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. 16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. 17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. 18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. 19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” 1 Corinthians 6:15-20

“Concupiscence” appears 3 times in God’s Word and speaking of having a secret desire for that which is forbidden, namely in sexual lust.

“But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.” Romans 7:8

“Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:” Colossians 3:5

“Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:” 1 Thessalonians 4:5

Revelation 19:7-9

“Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.”

Colossians 3:1-6

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. 5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:”

Memorize Colossians 3:3

“Submerge yourself deeper and deeper into Jesus until you sink out of sight.”!! Unknown

1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

“Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; 5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God: 6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. 8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.”

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:23

Read Psalms 51 and Romans 6 each morning.

PRAYER: Holy Father, please forgive my many sins. Please touch this vessel all the way to the core of who You made me to be. Do Your work in this life You gave. Please unite my heart to fear Thy name and purify this heart O LORD. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Simplicity of Real Fellowship [podcast]

Satan thinks he has Stolen the Fellowship of the Saints

“Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” Revelation 12:12

Exhorting God’s People “Daily”

“But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” Hebrews 3:13

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16

“Feed my sheep”

“So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. 16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep. 17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.” John 21:15-17

Simplicity in Fellowship

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” Acts 2:42

They “continued steadfastly in …

“the apostles doctrines”
“fellowship”
“breaking bread”
“prayers”

“Great podcast. Thank you. As I was listening I was thinking about all the many churches we have attended through the years. And the one thing missing was love for Jesus. Everything was robotic. Hands raised in singing but no hearts raised. All scripted. You follow the script then go home. No honesty about their lives! All fake. Nothing more than a religious gathering. The disciples of old turned the world upside down because of their love for their Savior! They were willing to die for Him and they did! All these fake Christians do is wear outward religious garb and somehow think Jesus doesn’t know – as in Matthew 23. How refreshing it is to be around people who love the Lord with all their heart, soul, and mind! (Mat 22:37). Even if it is mostly online and as they live their daily lives. At least it is all about Jesus and not self! And I want to be with people who are Christ-centered not self-centered!” Karen Cochran
