Can a Christian loose his salvation?

Sin cannot separate the christian from God. When a person is saved they are justified from all things.

Thats not just sins of the past thats ALL sins.

Acts 13v39: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

The Justification of the sinner does not only refer to things that are past. Justification is a state that the sinner in brought into in which he is forever righteous before God.

Do who can bring a new charge against a man that is justified? No-one...

Rom 8v33: Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect?

And the answer is?

It is God that justifieth.

Because God has justified the sinner no charge can ever be brought against his because God has declared him righteous in Christ.

Rom 8v34: Who is he that condemneth?

Who can condemn the christian?

No-one - WHY?

Rom 8v34 It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

That is why Rom 8 started with the phrase - There is therefore now NO condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.

But surely you say something must be able to separate the Christian from God?

Well we have established that it cannot be sin. So Paul goes on to list the things that might do it...

35: Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36: As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37: Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38: For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39: Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.


Is this the teaching of Christ?

Yes of course it is.

John 5v24: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

The word condemnation means to face judgment to be condemned. How Can God condemn a man who he has declared Justified?

Impossible.
