Once Saved Always Saved Lie
(Page 1)
Ezekiel 13:22
Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad,
whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked,
that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:
God ordained only one English translation of the scriptures from the Aramaic Old and New Testament manuscripts that became known as the Authorized King James Bible, because King James put his seal on the English translation done by the scholars and scribes.
Certain individuals it upon themselves to write all the other watered down versions of the bible. They sought easy reading, rather than seeking God's guidance for understanding of the King James Bible.
Many unauthorized translationed versions of the bible,
The King James Bible preserves God's words, because it was translated using formal equivalence. All other bibles were translated using dynamic equivalence. When dynamic equivalence is used, the translators are free to change words, and meanings as long as they convey the idea.
Many do not realize that individuals outside of the Christian faith use those watered down versions of the bible to discredit and tear down Christianity. These watered down versions have caused many to leave/depart from the Christian faith to even have some convert to a wayward religion.
When it comes to judging any doctrine, the scriptures should always be the final authority. Regardless of what anyone else has to say about it, the scriptures are ultimately all that matters. If you believe the false doctrine of "Once Saved Always Saved" that guarantees Eternal Living Life, then I challenge you to compare the scriptures of the King James Bible to other versions of the bible to see if what you are being taught or learned passes the ultimate test of truth.
Satan's lie, "you shall not surely die" started in the Garden of Eden and continues to live on to deceive many religious leaders and members today under the guise of "Once Saved Always Saved, OSAS, or Eternal Security".
"Once Saved Always Saved" was birthed out of the very mouth of Satan himself, and believing it does bring him the utmost satisfaction. God gets no Glory from the half-truth's that Satan does establish upon this planet.
Many look at Adam and Eve and wonder how they could have been easily lead astray, when they walked and talked with God. Yet "Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers place trust of their Eternal Soul's on the very same doctrine of Satan, holding it superior, and most important than any other doctrine in the whole Bible.
Satan promised Adam and Eve life in disobedience, and so are many that believe the lies and false security in the "Once Saved Always Saved" doctrine.
There is a double deception attached to the "Once Saved Always Saved" doctrine.
We pray that the set scriptures within these writings will open the eyes of many to the lies and deception Satan has put forth before it's too late.
May the LORD give strength in faith through the understanding of truth within the given scriptures.
Many choose to follow the doctrine "Once Saved Always Saved", "OSAS", or "Eternal Security" so they can freely partake of sin. Many deny it but it is a fact. They justify their partaking of sin in saying, "the flesh is weak". The truth is, they are weak in faith, and it has nothing to do with the flesh.
Jesus let it be known that many have not partaken of sin (Matthew 9:13, Mark 2:17, Luke 5:32). Many upon this planet choose to refrain from partaking of sin. They have learn about sin and how to overcome the sin in their life. OSASers choose to ignore this fact, saying, "it is impossible", or call them a liar based on their own weaknesses.
They have learned to walk in the "New" man of righteousness. Sin is a choice, and many choose to prove to God how much they love Him and His Righteousness.
The "Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers choose to ignore what God truly voiced in the scriptures.
God doesn't ask anything of His Children that would be impossible or couldn't be accomplished. It's man's own weaknesses that does lead them to blame God. If an individual thinks or believes different, then they don't truly know the Righteous Good and Just God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
The soul that sinneth, it shall die. It does not say the Soul that sinneth, it shall not die, but have eternal living life. Neither does it say sin can be inherited or passed onto another.
"Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers boldly admit that they sin by not keeping the Ten Commandments with no fear of God, nor any fear of the deadly effects of sin. They distort and smear the Holy, Righteous and Saintly Image of Christianity, having a form of godliness.
The righteous man does not need the Law of Good and Righteousness, the Ten Commandments, but those that profess they still sin are in need of the law to overcome all sin for Eternal Living Life.
"Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers believe that the sin that once lead them to hell and destruction before becoming saved can no longer lead them to hell and destruction if they partake in that same sin after becoming saved.
"Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers believe they are not bound by the teachings of Jesus Christ. They believe they are not responsible for their sin, and anyone who disagrees is a legalist. They pervert the Grace of God, and flirt with antinomianism. (Antinomian is a person who maintains that Christians are freed from the moral law by virtue of Grace, as set forth in the gospel.)
Certain individuals believe imputed righteousness is what makes a holy and righteous person once they become saved, without any requirement of living a holy and righteous life. They believe they will not have to answer for any vile and heinous evils of sin they commit after obtaining God's Holy and Righteous Salvation. They believe God can't see the impenitent heart and willful sin of a Christian, that He only sees the righteousness of Christ, His Blood, and Grace, but never their sin. Do these individuals not understand that Jesus must see sin to cleanse and forgive from sin.
If righteousness is automatically imputed with the obtaining of salvation, then why are individuals instructed to walk as Christ did walk, or that they should follow in his steps, because He is their Example of what it takes to become a Righteous son of God. (1 John 2:6, 1 Peter 2:21, John 15:10, Matthew 16:24, Matthew 10:38)
Sin will always separate individuals from God. There is no such thing as a little acceptable sin. All sin must be overcome to be in the presence of God. The wages for sin does not change for any sin, its payment is always death. Repentance is not to be a mouth service act, it is to be a heartfelt action with a contrite heart. Rejection of all sin in one's life is the goal to the finish line.
The natural righteousness that man was initially created with/in is imputed to them through the Ten Commandments and Jesus Christ, if they truly follow and adhere them.
Unfortunately, many don't have the faith to utilize the knowledge of man's natural created righteousness that is displayed through Jesus Christ and the Ten Commandments, so they can return back to their original created state of sonship.
The Good News is, all have been provided with the tools of Righteousness to become successful, if they so choose.
God doesn't use a magic wand to make an individual righteous. Individuals must utilize all the tools God provides to convert, and to prove they are worthy.
It is the knowledge and acceptance of God's Good & Righteousness that man was initially created with/in that does change hearts, souls and minds of the wayward. Wayward man must turn back to God's Good & Righteousness, to become fully clothed in God's Good & Righteousness, to become true sons of God.
Certain individuals believe in their own good and righteousness. They believe their own good and righteousness is sufficient for the Kingdom and equal to God's. If this wasn't true, then they wouldn't choose to be lawless.
Most that profess to love God do not use the measuring stick of Good and Righteousness to overcome sin that God provided. Instead, most that believe and follow OSAS are taught to ignore and reject God's Set Standard of Good and Righteousness, the Ten Commandments (just like the Chosen People were taught to ignore the Law of Good and Righteousness by their religious leaders).
In the latter times some shall depart from the faith; one must be in faith to depart from faith.
Departing from the faith makes them no different then the rest of wayward man in the world.
"Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers profess that God does not change, nor lie, but they don't really believe it, or they wouldn't be indirectly teaching He does with this doctrine. It is man that keeps changing and lying, not God.
God never accepts any sin. Sin does always separate individuals from God. God has continually asked man throughout time to keep His Commandments (He did this in Spirit and then physically as Jesus Christ). God expects those that want to truly be sons of God to overcome sin (He provided the tools to the Jews first, then to the Gentiles to bless all the families of earth- Genesis 28:14).
"Once Saved Always Saved" offers easy-believism that turns God's Grace into ungodliness by promising eternal life to those that live ungodly lives. "Once Saved Always Saved" does offer and promise eternal life to individuals that show no change of ungodly lifestyle at all.
The teachings of eternal security (Once Saved Always Saved -OSAS) is unscriptural/unbiblical in many areas. It is not just the one area of eternal security that is dangerously wrong! Instead, hundreds of scriptures are distorted, misconstrued, and/or completely changed in the many unauthorized versions of the Bible to fit this doctrine. It leads individuals further from biblical truth, into error and eternal death (second death), which does become the outcome of failure.
Like the Jews, many Christians are being lead by their religious leaders on the pathways of their own choosing, rather than the ways of God, His Good & Righteousness that He did voice in scriptures.
Many Christians find it just to continually sacrifice Christ (spiritually speaking) for the same sin over and over again, like the Jews were being taught by their religious leaders to continually sacrifice (innocent animals) for the same sin over and over again, rather than being taught to reject and overcome sin.
The King James Bible is Complete for Salvation and Eternal Living Life. If you live by and obey God's Complete instructions, and not just in part, you shall live.
Salvation is not Eternal Living Life like many are lead to believe. Salvation is the cleansing and purification from sin for eternal life. Salvation is through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is God's Good and Righteousness Physically manfested in the Flesh.
If individuals do not keep themselves cleansed from sin through the Ten Commandments and Jesus Christ, they will not have a successful outcome. It is an individual's responsibility and choice whether they continue in their given salvation by keeping themselves cleansed and purified with righteousness from the sin that is in the world.
All saved individual's have been afforded the freedom of choice to corrupt their spirit again with sin after Christ has cleansed and purified their spirit from sin. If sin does Not become repented of and overcome, this will lead an individual to the second death, which is death of their spirit and soul. Second death only occurs when the spirit is too weak from sin to return to the Heavenly Father upon physical death.
God does offer mankind salvation so they can utilize the tools of righteousness that He provided that can/will bring man back to their original created state of righteousness for His Eternal Kingdom. The tools that Jesus Physically brought, taught, and display for all the families of earth. He was man's Physical Example of what it takes to become a son of God, being a Son of God Himself.
All mankind upon the planet that seek an eternal existence must be found worthy to obtain God's Eternal Living Life. (Matthew 10:38, Matthew 22:8, Luke 20:35, Luke 21:36, Ephesians 4:1, Colossians 1:10, 1 Thessalonians 2:12, 2 Thessalonians 1:5, 2 Thessalonians 1:11, Revelation 3:4, Revelation 16:6)
Salvation is a daily process in learning to refuse the fruits of this wayward world (sin and its evils), and choose Good and Righteousness to overcome all the sin in the world for Eternal Living Life.
"Once Saved Always Saved" teaches individuals, that no matter what, they are guaranteed eternal living life by just believing on the Name of Jesus Christ and/or the Gospel of Jesus Christ, yet ignore all the conditions that are given in the scriptures that they must hold to for their Spirit and Soul to exist eternally in a Son of God body. (Philippians 3:21, John 20:26)
Salvation can lead to Eternal Living Life, if individuals continue in their given Salvation of Good & Righteousness and truly follow Christ. Jesus Christ is God's given Physical Example of a Son of God for all mankind to physically sight, relate to, and learn from (the Way), so they can become sons of God themselves. Only and only then will they reap the benefits of their given Salvation, which is Eternal Living Life.

There is a double deception attached to the "Once Saved Always Saved" doctrine.
• First deception; Individuals are being mislead to believe they are saved when they are not when they follow an unconditional Salvation for Eternal Living Life.
• Second deception; Individuals are also being mislead to believe they cannot or will never change their minds, leave the faith, and again return back to ways of the sinful world.
• Second deception; Individuals are also being mislead to believe they cannot or will never change their minds, leave the faith, and again return back to ways of the sinful world.

2 Peter 2:21-22 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

Certain individuals believe imputed righteousness is what makes a holy and righteous person once they become saved, without any requirement of living a holy and righteous life. They believe they will not have to answer for any vile and heinous evils of sin they commit after obtaining God's Holy and Righteous Salvation.

Do these individuals not understand that Jesus must see sin to cleanse and forgive from sin.

Sin will always separate individuals from God. There is no such thing as a little acceptable sin. All sin must be overcome to be in the presence of God. The wages for sin does not change for any sin, its payment is always death. Repentance is not to be a mouth service act, it is to be a heartfelt action with a contrite heart. Rejection of all sin in one's life is the goal to the finish line.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Luke 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
1 John 2:29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.
1 John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Matthew 5:20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
The teaching of imputed righteousness is both demonic and lethal, because they are making themselves egual to God and Jesus Christ, and above reproach.Luke 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
1 John 2:29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.
1 John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Matthew 5:20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
The natural righteousness that man was initially created with/in is imputed to them through the Ten Commandments and Jesus Christ, if they truly follow and adhere them.
Unfortunately, many don't have the faith to utilize the knowledge of man's natural created righteousness that is displayed through Jesus Christ and the Ten Commandments, so they can return back to their original created state of sonship.
The Good News is, all have been provided with the tools of Righteousness to become successful, if they so choose.
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
God doesn't use a magic wand to make an individual righteous. Individuals must utilize all the tools God provides to convert, and to prove they are worthy.
Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
Psalms 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
Psalms 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
It is the knowledge and acceptance of God's Good & Righteousness that man was initially created with/in that does change hearts, souls and minds of the wayward. Wayward man must turn back to God's Good & Righteousness, to become fully clothed in God's Good & Righteousness, to become true sons of God.
Revelation 7:13-14 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Certain individuals believe in their own good and righteousness. They believe their own good and righteousness is sufficient for the Kingdom and equal to God's. If this wasn't true, then they wouldn't choose to be lawless.
Ezekiel 33:13 When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it.
Romans 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
Romans 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
Most that profess to love God do not use the measuring stick of Good and Righteousness to overcome sin that God provided. Instead, most that believe and follow OSAS are taught to ignore and reject God's Set Standard of Good and Righteousness, the Ten Commandments (just like the Chosen People were taught to ignore the Law of Good and Righteousness by their religious leaders).
Isaiah 49:22 Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
Isaiah 62:10 Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people.
Jeremiah 4:6 Set up the standard toward Zion: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.
Jeremiah 4:22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
Jeremiah 9:13 And the LORD saith, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein;
1 John 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
Isaiah 62:10 Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people.
Jeremiah 4:6 Set up the standard toward Zion: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.
Jeremiah 4:22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

1 John 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
James 2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. (grievous- causing grief or great sorrow: outrageous: burdensome:)
1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. (grievous- causing grief or great sorrow: outrageous: burdensome:)
John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
John 12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
In the latter times some shall depart from the faith; one must be in faith to depart from faith.
1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
Do "Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers honestly believe an individual can depart from the faith, and still be saved? Departing from the faith makes them no different then the rest of wayward man in the world.
"Once Saved Always Saved" teachers and followers profess that God does not change, nor lie, but they don't really believe it, or they wouldn't be indirectly teaching He does with this doctrine. It is man that keeps changing and lying, not God.
Malachi 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
God never accepts any sin. Sin does always separate individuals from God. God has continually asked man throughout time to keep His Commandments (He did this in Spirit and then physically as Jesus Christ). God expects those that want to truly be sons of God to overcome sin (He provided the tools to the Jews first, then to the Gentiles to bless all the families of earth- Genesis 28:14).
Exodus 16:28 And the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?
Deuteronomy 5:29 O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
Proverbs 4:4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
Proverbs 7:2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.

"Once Saved Always Saved" offers easy-believism that turns God's Grace into ungodliness by promising eternal life to those that live ungodly lives. "Once Saved Always Saved" does offer and promise eternal life to individuals that show no change of ungodly lifestyle at all.
Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Matthew 13:25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
Matthew 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Matthew 13:29-30 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Matthew 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Matthew 13:29-30 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

The teachings of eternal security (Once Saved Always Saved -OSAS) is unscriptural/unbiblical in many areas. It is not just the one area of eternal security that is dangerously wrong! Instead, hundreds of scriptures are distorted, misconstrued, and/or completely changed in the many unauthorized versions of the Bible to fit this doctrine. It leads individuals further from biblical truth, into error and eternal death (second death), which does become the outcome of failure.
Isaiah 9:16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.
Luke 11:52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
Matthew 23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Luke 11:52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Like the Jews, many Christians are being lead by their religious leaders on the pathways of their own choosing, rather than the ways of God, His Good & Righteousness that He did voice in scriptures.
Jeremiah 17:23 But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
Malachi 2:9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.
Hebrews 3:10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
Jeremiah 21:8 And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Malachi 2:9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.
Hebrews 3:10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
Jeremiah 21:8 And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Many Christians find it just to continually sacrifice Christ (spiritually speaking) for the same sin over and over again, like the Jews were being taught by their religious leaders to continually sacrifice (innocent animals) for the same sin over and over again, rather than being taught to reject and overcome sin.
Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
Jeremiah 33:18 Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
Hosea 6:6 For I desired mercy (on the innocent animals), and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
If an individual continues in sin after they have asked Jesus to personally save them from the destruction of sin, Jeremiah 33:18 Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
Hosea 6:6 For I desired mercy (on the innocent animals), and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

• Are they really in a saved relationship with Christ?

The King James Bible is Complete for Salvation and Eternal Living Life. If you live by and obey God's Complete instructions, and not just in part, you shall live.
Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
Salvation is not Eternal Living Life like many are lead to believe. Salvation is the cleansing and purification from sin for eternal life. Salvation is through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is God's Good and Righteousness Physically manfested in the Flesh.
Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
If individuals do not keep themselves cleansed from sin through the Ten Commandments and Jesus Christ, they will not have a successful outcome. It is an individual's responsibility and choice whether they continue in their given salvation by keeping themselves cleansed and purified with righteousness from the sin that is in the world.
1 Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Psalms 18:23 I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
Acts 15:29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

2 Timothy 2:20-21 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

All saved individual's have been afforded the freedom of choice to corrupt their spirit again with sin after Christ has cleansed and purified their spirit from sin. If sin does Not become repented of and overcome, this will lead an individual to the second death, which is death of their spirit and soul. Second death only occurs when the spirit is too weak from sin to return to the Heavenly Father upon physical death.
God does offer mankind salvation so they can utilize the tools of righteousness that He provided that can/will bring man back to their original created state of righteousness for His Eternal Kingdom. The tools that Jesus Physically brought, taught, and display for all the families of earth. He was man's Physical Example of what it takes to become a son of God, being a Son of God Himself.
All mankind upon the planet that seek an eternal existence must be found worthy to obtain God's Eternal Living Life. (Matthew 10:38, Matthew 22:8, Luke 20:35, Luke 21:36, Ephesians 4:1, Colossians 1:10, 1 Thessalonians 2:12, 2 Thessalonians 1:5, 2 Thessalonians 1:11, Revelation 3:4, Revelation 16:6)
Salvation is a daily process in learning to refuse the fruits of this wayward world (sin and its evils), and choose Good and Righteousness to overcome all the sin in the world for Eternal Living Life.
Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Psalms 96:2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.
2 Corinthians 4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

2 Corinthians 4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
"Once Saved Always Saved" teaches individuals, that no matter what, they are guaranteed eternal living life by just believing on the Name of Jesus Christ and/or the Gospel of Jesus Christ, yet ignore all the conditions that are given in the scriptures that they must hold to for their Spirit and Soul to exist eternally in a Son of God body. (Philippians 3:21, John 20:26)
John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
Romans 2:1-6 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

Salvation can lead to Eternal Living Life, if individuals continue in their given Salvation of Good & Righteousness and truly follow Christ. Jesus Christ is God's given Physical Example of a Son of God for all mankind to physically sight, relate to, and learn from (the Way), so they can become sons of God themselves. Only and only then will they reap the benefits of their given Salvation, which is Eternal Living Life.
Revelation 2:10-11 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life (eternal life). He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Timothy 3:16-17
ALL scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable
for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in
righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect,
throughly furnished unto all good works.
