Raven Hits the Gym!

What a workout---those "once saved always saved" pk's just believe:
"Well, I believe that...even though my brother backslid...he was still saved."
Luke 13:5 I tell you, No. But unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.


What a blessing to have the opportunity to minister to these young ladies the Truth about Christ.
Without repentance there is no salvation.
Luke 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

Perish (6622)
ἀπόλλυμι
apollumi
ap-ol'-loo-mee
to destroy fully (reflexively to perish, or lose), literally or figuratively: - destroy, die, lose, mar, perish.

"But, nobody's perfect."
I am (Hebrews 10:14).
It is written,
"Be perfect as I am perfect. Be holy as I am holy" (Matt 5:48)
Why would Christ command it if it weren't possible?

The Scripture says that Christ is coming back for a person with out spot or blemish (Eph 5:27),
to work out your salvation daily with fear and trembling (Phil 2:12),...
and here is the condemnation:
Joh 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil,
that there is no longer a sacrifice for those who know what's right and willingly continue to sin (Hebrews 10:26).
Finally,
It is impossible to bring some of them back!!
Heb 6:4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
Heb 6:5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
Heb 6:6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

If you do not produce fruit you will be thrown into the fire (Matt 3:10).

"Hypocrites, brood of vipers...."

"I'll let you talk to my dad."
My final answer:
"I'm talking to you-it looks like you have some homework to do."

Wow! What a work out!
Go Ravens!
