A Bible Study Examining Eternal Security

A few years ago I was talking to a Baptist youth pastor who lamented that as soon as adolescents turn eighteen, they leave the church. Since I came to the Lord in 1978, I have seen many who were once on fire for the Lord leave the faith.

Do these backsliders have eternal security, or does God expect them to persevere? Is it possible to drift beyond the point of no return? This study will show over 150 verses of scripture, including passages used to teach eternal security, where Jesus and the apostles warned us that we must endure to the end if we wish to be saved.

23 Mistakes Not to Make While Studying Your Bible

Plus other guidelines to properly understand Scripture

Learn 23 common errors to avoid when studying the Bible. The Bible is our final authority, yet have you ever wondered how two Christians can see in a passage of Scripture two completely different interpretations? To hear a teacher misinterpret a passage of scripture and then see the congregation nod their head up and down is disheartening.

Law and Grace

Many Christians are confused about the balance between law and grace. Do we need to accomplish a certain amount of works in order to be saved? Why did Jesus teach in Matthew 16:27 that He will judge us by our works? Does Mosaic Law still apply? What are the problems with dividing the moral law from the ceremonial law? This study will try to answer these questions.

King James Version vs. Modern Translations

This study looks at the different Bible versions comparing the Received Text to the Critical Text and how the critical text (used in most modern translations) was edited. Christians are entrusted by God with keeping the sacred Scriptures pure, yet many Christians are ignorant about the differences between Bible versions.
