51: Once Saved, Always Saved?
Manage episode 480690566 series 3623512
Is "once saved, always saved" truly biblical—or can a believer walk away from salvation? In this two-part series, Todd and Laura dive deep into a recent Q&A event hosted by Todd's new church, where pastors claimed that salvation can be lost. This first episode examines the verses cited to support that view and asks: what happens to the rest of Scripture if salvation isn’t secure?
Using Scripture and context, Todd and Laura begin unpacking the core debate between eternal security and conditional salvation. They explore the theological ripple effect this question has on passages about grace, faith, sanctification, the role of works, and what it means to be truly born again.
Whether you're rooted in Reformed theology, curious about Arminianism, or unsure what any of that means, this is a critical conversation for every believer asking: Can I lose my salvation—or was I never truly saved?
