When people come to know Christ as their Savior, they are brought into a relationship with God that guarantees their salvation as eternally secure. Numerous passages of Scripture declare this fact. (a) Romans 8:30 declares, "And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified." This verse tells us that from the moment God chooses us, it is as if we are glorified in His presence in heaven.

right this is my opinion, in line with comparing Scripture with Scripture and likewise from analyzing a number of books on the region. a million, Paul wrote a million Thessalonians particularly early, probable 5-10 years in the previous the Corinthian letters. In a million Thessalonians, the context of financial ruin 4 is the believing lifeless whose bodies "slept" interior the floor. What Paul wrote in a million Thessalonians 4:sixteen is genuinely authentic--while Jesus returns, interior the air, for His saints, the lifeless will upward thrust first, and, in accordance to the subsequent verse, we who're alive and final will connect them, and so we are able to be with the Lord consistently. Did you study the subsequent a number of verses, or the completed context? 2. Now in 2 Corinthians 5, Paul is discussing the guy believer and what occurs while a believer dies. The believer is going to be with the Lord. returned, i'm particular you observed the verse that reported if Paul became into absent from the Lord, he became into interior the physique, etc. So there is not any contradiction, those verses reflect 2 diverse aspects of a believer's demise, could a believer die in the previous the Rapture. The physique is going into the floor and the soul/spirit is going to be with the Lord. while the Rapture comes, the physique is raised, and joined to the soul and spirit, and is going to Heaven.

Matt24:13 those who persevere to the end will be saved
Gal5:4 if we separate ourselves from Christ
,we have exited grace
We need to persevere in the grace of justification and union with Christ
Romans 8;30 does not teach Calvinist impossiblity of apostasizing form grace by mortal sin for Jesus constantly warns us to stay awake in grace.

I believe it is Ephesians 3 or 4 that says"For it is by grace that you are saved ,through faith and not of yourselves. It is a gift and not by works ,least anyman boast".
Jesus died and rose for our justification.It is a gift of God.You can not earn a gift.It is free.Just accept it.

it isn't one verse. anything can be taken out of context if you only take the verse and not the surrounding passages.
I think you want to look at what Martin Luther wrote.
