A common doctrine concerning salvation today is called “once saved, always saved.” The belief is that once someone has been saved, nothing can be done, either by an outside force or by the person himself, to cause him to lose his salvation. Some Scriptures, taken alone, seem to support this belief, while many other Scriptures seem to completely contradict this belief. So, it seems today that many, many preachers and Bible teach­ers are focusing on a few Scriptures which seem favorable to this doctrine, since it is popular, while completely ignoring the many, many other Scriptures that contradict the belief of “once saved, always saved.” Any time someone picks out a few Scriptures to support their own view, they have opened themselves up for deception and error. This practice is the recipe for heresy and all false doctrines. This is the very reason we have so many denominations and different doctrines being preached today. In this message, I will use many more than a just few scriptures to prove that there are clear Biblical exceptions to the idea of unconditional eternal security. I hope you will listen with an open mind to the Word and really examine the Scriptures carefully as if the life of your soul depends on it, since it really does. Check it out for yourself to see if what I am saying is true. What can it hurt for you to do that?
