that's true that when you accept Him, He will be your Lord.

But I think that you have to live out your Salvation.

yah...
you are saved once you accepted Christ as your personal Lord and SAVIOUR
but i agree that you have to live out your salvation,
once you know the fact that you are saved,
you have your EPISTEMIC DUTIES as a saved believer(tama ba ung concept na toh?)
well, i hope you got my point...
ang these epIstemic duties would i guess include sharing God's word to other people
we need not be selfish and keep to ourselves God's saving knowledge
another thing is to read God's word...
this is a two-way dynamic relationship
yes, you are speaking to God through prayer but are you listening to Him?
its not all about you
it's about God and His will for you...
how can you know God and Hi will?
read the bible...
and pray everyday,
pray everyday...
hehe...
and there are a lot more epistemic duties you can think of...

yah thats right...
instead of saying that sharing the word to other people is a DUTY..

lets call it as COMPASSION for the LOST

panu pag kunyari u accepted na Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior tpos mabait k nman.. tpos nag go grow ka as a Christian.. bsta parang lahat n ng mga bagay n edeng mag save sau ngawa mo pero ntatakot ka mag share ng gospel.. what will happen? saved pa rin b tau?

i quote my dad

"the person is still saved.
god will not disown him.
he will still be a christian.
pero he is kulang in the area of winning souls.
meaning, he still has to develop his gifts in that area.
remember that we are all 'in the making'

hope that makes sense...

well, i'm using the language game of philosophers tha's why i used the word DUTY
you can think of it which way you can...
as a duty, a love, a need...
but it all boils down to you sharing God's word with the intention of bringing more people to salvation

sorry for being so philosophical...

hahaha...
(intention is philosophicalxp)

i hate being what my course wants me to bexp

grrrr.....xp

He'll be saved if he repents. Mas ok kun gay k na before you accepted Jesus then repent from it little by little. medyo mahirap lang tlga yun kc lifestyle n tlga yun e. Personality ang babaguhin. Kaya kelangan acceptance and care ng church sa kanya.

nice!
I read it na...


"However, there is no assurance for one who dies in deliberate sin presuming upon the grace of God and using it as a license."

wah!
so may possibility na my friend is in hell...

Hindi ko rin masasabi e... Pero diba kapag nagsuicide ka may mga reasons. Reasons that affect our faith in Him. It shows that the person does not trust Jesus to take control of his life. He's moving away to the gift of God that is grace. He's choice is to end his life. And that is not the purpose of God to end our own lives here on earth. He gave that God-breathed life to us and people can end the way they want if they don't like anymore is not the way God wants. Remember that Jesus already gave us freedom and victory over sin and DEATH. Why should we still want to end our life by our own will if God has already given victory. God's design for everyone to bless our life here on earth and not to destroy it. It's true God has his own timetable for everyone of us. It's not for us order Him to end our life. I hope I'm making my point hehehehe

yah..no comment..hahaa

well, i'll just leave it up to God!

yup that's right only God knows if the person is saved or not. We should always remember that He is a just and merciful God.

what if...
there's this person...
lives in a far place...
didn't hear the gospel...
tapos namatay...
what will happen?

That I don't know... What my papa told me that they will be judge according to the life they had when they were here on earth... But still I can't imagine how it will work. God knows what he's doing with His people

All I know the innocent children shall be automatically go to heaven.
