That is doubletalk!

The scriptures have been posted more times than should be necessary. Enduring is our job, not God’s. The apostles assure us that many that had the Holy Spirit will be ultimately lost, due to their own turning away.

Disliking scripture won’t make it go away.

Refusing to believe the plain words of scripture is the error.

"The scriptures have been posted more times than should be necessary. Enduring is our job, not God’s. The apostles assure us that many that had the Holy Spirit will be ultimately lost, due to their own turning away."

Post the passages of scripture with your assertion, noting to whom the passages are written and for what times. THEN we will go further in this discussion, but not until.

1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

1 Corinthians 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness."

John 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

We trust God to keep His promises. You should to.
