"Once Saved - Always Saved"... A f ALS[ DOCTl!IN[ Quite simply, Paul's numerous references to being saved by the grace of God as opposed to works refers to the sacrifice made for our sins by Jesus Christ that "saved" us from being subject to sin (and the death it would ultimately bring) through the avenue repentance...

But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the fiesh; but he of the freewoman was promise. Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to which is Agar. For this is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to now is, and is in bondage with her children. But which is above is free, which is the mother of us all." 1 (John 3: 16) so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth should have MARCH 998-40-

law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the fiesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful fiesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the fiesh: That the righteousness of the law might fulfilled us, who not the fiesh, but after the Spirit. that are after the fiesh do mind the things of the fiesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. But ye are not in the fiesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that of God dwell in you. Now man have not Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, that raised up Christ from the dead ies by his Spirit that dwelleth you. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the fiesh, to live after the fiesh. For ye live after ye die: but through Spirit do mortify the ye shall live. as are led by the Spirit this present time are not worthy to be with the shall be revealed in us." Here, verses 18 refer to children (heirs of as suffering in this life, though not comparable to glory that will What Once again, even after we enter waters of baptism and are "saved" (as they say), our lives are subject to temptation and sin, works are required, even in face of persecution that we are told will occur. That is part the fering to which these two verses refer. 5 (1 Cor 3:15) "If any man's work shall be he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as " you as preceding verses: 1 For we are labourers God: ye are God's ye are ing. According to the grace God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have the This speaks having obeyed the for having performed works. A reward is earned, as opposed to salvation which is due to the grace of God. Yet the works obedience are definitely reknowing that we are pleasing God and doing the right things preparation for judgement day. (Ecclesiastes 2:26) "For God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail... " 6(Ephesians 2:4-9,15) "But God, who is mercy, for his great wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead hath us together (by are saved;) usup and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches grace in his kindness us through Christ by grace are ye saved not selves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast...

2 (1 John 3:9) "Whosoever is born God doth not,,,,,,,,,,,,, sin; for his seed remaineth : he cannot sin, uu,u1,,c.,cc is born of God." Also (1 John 5: 18) "We know that of God sinneth him not." of all, read I "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." Just as when Paul so frequently similar remarks, himself along with the rest of us. Were Paul and John not "saved?" Wouldn't it be nice, and life so much easier if we could get away taking verses out of context? However, again considering the whole of God's word, put with these two verses the rest of the story. Read also from 1 John 24: "Hereby we the love because he down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But whoso hath this world's good, and his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion how dwelleth the love of God in him? My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. And hereby we know that we are of the truth, shall assure our hearts behim. For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. And and love one anas gave us commandment. And --'-----'--'---'-'-"""-';.c.._;.----.,;:_ we by the Spirit which given us." Similarly, as read all the verses of chapter where, for one you find the 3rd verse to say that the love of God is to "keep his commandments." What if we don't? Do the two verses (3:9 & 5: 18) this book quoted above mean that the "saved" individual is incapable not obeying commandments? Incapable unrighteousness? Has contradicted himself here? Not at all. water, having our sins washed away. Unfortunately, we are quite capable sin, even our thoughts, moments after the baptism or presentation, by laying on hands, of the gift of the Holy Ghost. The remaining scriptures on this topic listed below cannot be misunderstood if one reads them context and prayer, asking God standing only can man. mentioned (James 2:14-26) "What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not? can faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? Even so faith, if it hath not is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imunto him ness: Friend of God. see then how that by works a man and not by faith only.

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." (2 Cor 5:9-10) "Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad." 6: "Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law For himself to be when he is nothing, he de- 1 v,,w,.. n himself But let every man prove his own work, then he other." in the behalf of Christ, not to believe on to suffer for his sake...

I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King kings, and Lord of Lords; Who only hath immortality, dwellin the light no man can approach unto; whom no man seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting.

For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God: But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned. But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. For is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises."

So we be again if we desire to be saved. But how? Again we read, I say ye must repent, and be born again: for the Spirit saith, If ye are not born again, can inherit the kingdom of heaven; Therefore come and be baptized unto repentance, that ye may be washed from your sins, that may have faith on the lamb God, who taketh away the sins of the world, who is mighty to save and to cleanse from all unrighteousness; Yea, I say unto you, come and fear not; and lay aside every sin, which easily doth beset you, which doth bind Yea, and go forth, and shew God that are will- But let us consider decision choice ours.

If any man's work which he hath thereupon, he shall receive a reward. any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; so as by fire" 1 Corinthians 3: 1 15. this scripture strike you as strange? What was it that the his or the foundation upon which he works? it the foundation? And the performed therein did not condemn the man even though some of those works were of such quality as to be burned. Those works not burned will gain him a reward. The fact is, as long as a man founded upon Christ then no matter what the quality of works may have been saved.

Consider the opposite scripture found 3 Nephi 12:23-24: "But if it be not built upon my gospel, and is built upon the works of men, or upon the works of the devil, verily I say unto you, They have joy in their works for a season, and by and the end cometh, are hewn down and cast into the fire, from whence there is no return; For their works do follow them, for it is because of their works that they are hewn down; therefore remember that I have told you."

In the latter case man is lost because of his works, works which were built upon a sandy foundation instead Rock. What was the difference? The difference is baptism by one having authority. Only then can we be about establishing the righteousness of Christ instead of our own righteousness. Do we want our works to count for a righteous reward? Then baptism is the key. Without baptism these works are counted evil in the sight of God and can reward us no good thing. This why a bring forth good water and a good fountain bitter water.
