Once you accept Christ, can you loose your salvation?

Salvation is a gift, but we must hold onto it and persevere in our faith, not just pray a prayer one time and then live any way we want. I hope the first link below will be helpful for you. Feel free to e-mail me at chad@jesusfreak.com if I can help.

All Sins keep you out of Heaven.\n\nHowever if you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior then he pays for your Sins and the Sins you commited are removed from you thus allowing you to go to heaven.

No one can attain salvation. Salvation is a gift given freely to man by God through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Placing your trust in an idol or in a prayer or in good deeds places your faith in the wrong area. God is so omnipotent, we cannot even fathom what he would look like, so by creating an idol of him, we are limiting who God is. If you read the entire Bible, nowhere will you find a physical description of what God looks like. There isn't even a physical description of Jesus.\n\nThere is only one way to salvation - 1) Admit God is perfect, 2) Admit you are not, 3) Accept that Christ is perfect and sacrificed his life for yours, and 4) Receive your gift of salvation through faith that Christ has paid for your mistakes.

No.  As the bible tells us God's grace is eternal.  Though we remain sinners after our tranformation in Christ we can and will never lose our salvation from Him.  It is what Romans teaches as the "Ordo Salutus" or order of salvation.  once we have been saved through Christ Jesus, "Justified"  we become Santificed through His will and love.  And when he returns we become glorified with new bodies and souls.

if you have been saved(accepted Jesus as your Savior) you will go to heaven..but if you haven't you will go to hell ..but not yet because nobody goes anyway until the day of judgment! it is in Revelations if you want to check!

You don't necessarily have to be good.  As long as you accept Jesus as your savior and really believe in him, you will get into heaven.

If they are born again. It is not hard to do, but someone who rejects God cannot do it. For the first step is to believe that God exists, second believe that one falls short of His glory (admit sin) third see that Jesus is the perfect Lamb of God who died to take away the sins of the word, who rose again to conquer death and rose to heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father.

becoming a christian isnt an act, it's a state of mind, a change of heart and a belief. the actions come after the change of heart. the more you feed off of God's word (the bible) the more He changes you from the inside out and that is when you start to change. just getting saved and trying to act diffrent without being fed the word of God will never work. you'll be saved but you wont change. once you believe in Christ and become saved you dont just forget and go back. people struggle with the flesh and our earthly desires and the only way to battle the flesh is to know how, the only way to know how is to live in the word. this is what will change them. without the word they are going at it alone and no one can do it alone.

Yes indeed.I was studying these issues myself.Here's my conviction.Justification is only by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and it is once and for all.Let God be true and man a liar.The transaction is done once and for all.The seal is done and no one can steal it from Christ.However,if you read the book of Revelation along with Daniel you will see that in the white throne judgement the believers in Christ and those who have rejected Christ will be separated by Christ himself like sheep is separated from goats.Which is a very sad thing and that is the reason why we Christians are supposed to be the salt of  the earth and light.So we (The believers in Christ )escape the final judgement.But all is not over.Now starts the judgement of the believers---do we enter heaven with honour or in dishonour?That is question we all need to ask now.Imagine living the rest of our lives in dishonour.Do we have any crowns to lay at His feet as our worship in eternity or not ,or shall we go empty handed standing before the Lord,with our heads hanging in shame???That is why Paul refers our life on earth like that of an athelete---breasting the tape alone will not determine our award but whether we are following the rules applicable;if an athelete does not follow rules of the race then imagine after running the race and comming 1st only to be told publicly he is disqualified for the award.That is very sad indeed!!!There are many more illustrations from every day life given in the Bible from which we all can understand simply.I believe God did not give His Word to us to keep it as a secret,his love for mankind was made a public spectacle when Christ gave his life on the cross willingly (and yet the world rejects it so much tragecally!!)so that you and I and all those who believe may not perish but have everlasting life.We are now co-heirs with Christ, therefore we inherit the Kingdom of heaven, not because of our deeds but by the act of Christ on the Cross.He gave us the authority to His children therefore we will live with him in heaven after our life on earth is over.Capture the image of the scene of the rupture!!!Oh! Death where is your sting!!!It is so powerful.He loves people His creation that he does not want even one to perish but it is we who reject His salvation for mankind.Jesus is a thorough gentleman, he never forces His way into anyone's life.His love is for the asking only.His heart is to preserve. I love The Word of God because it is so alive and speaking to me even in this decade.I also trust that  even as you seek the many question if you seek with all your heart He shall reveal it and The Truth shall set you free indeed.So the bottom line is whether we will enter heaven in honour or in shame?Amen.

A scripture that comes to mind is in Romans 8:9,10.  It says you are controlled by the Spirit of God if the Spirit of God lives in you. Verse 10 says if Christ is in you ...your spirit is alive because of righteousness (Christs').  So the only way to lose it is to walk away from Christ and His teachings. I wouldn't suggest it b/c you would be worse off considering that once God's spirit leaves seven bad spirits will replace his and you would be worse off than before (Luke 11:26).

You can't, if you turn away you were not savesd to begin with. If your salvation is real ypu will change your behavior to reflect it.

If you believe in Jesus Christ as your savior and ask for forgiveness you are saved, God can not lie and turn you back, if you have the holy spirit in you, you will be saved into an eternal life, people can call themselves christians, and not be saved.

There is only one sin that will send you to hell and that is rejecting JESUS CHRIST as your personal savior. John 3:18-19\nIf someone truly excepts Christ as their savior they do not want to continue to live a life of sinfulness. 1 John 3:9-10 explains this quite adequately. Rather than wondering how much sin you can commit you should be wondering how to become more like CHRIST... you can not have a relationship with the world and with CHRIST  James 4:4 . Just simply acknowledging that GOD exists is not becoming a Christian. Even the devil believes in GOD in this manner and I assure you that he is not going to \nheaven. Look up Romans 10:9-10 for a study on how to be saved. I hope and pray that you truly submit to the LORD SHIP OF CHRIST in your life through a relationship with HIM.\n~GOD BLESS YOU AND LEAD YOU INTO ALL TRUTH~

some Christians might tell you anything.  hahahhahaha\n\nDon't confuse Eternal Life with salvation.\n\n\nwhat does God Himself say?\n\n\nYES.  you can lose your salvation. Read the last page of the Bible. What does it say? \n Anyone who does what?  ADD TOO.  OR takes away what? from this Book.  God will take YOUR name out of the Lambs Book of Life.  hello.??\n\nYour name had to be IN it, for God to take it out.\n\nbottom line.\n\nwanna Popsicle?

Simple:\n\nJust ask Christ to enter your heart. All other things come after. Sure read the bible, but it is not required, although it is jolly good reading. It is written:\n\nJohn 20:31\nBut these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.\n\nThe only hard thing about accepting him is trusting him, and beliving him. Trust is hard but you have to work at it.

No it doesn't.  Jesus said that baptism is essential for salvation.  You can't enter the Kingdom without it.  But that isn't the same as saying you get free admission to the kingdom by being baptized.  Baptism gives us the initial grace, makes us members of the Body of Christ on earth, the Church.  But not all members of the Church are going to heaven.  That depends on what each person does with his/her time on earth.
