Here's where you can guess.
a. Am I deep in theological study?
b. Am I trying to remove leftover corn from my teeth?
c. Am I taking an afternoon siesta - during class?
d. Am I in great agitation since I can't seem to locate any good Bullwinkle and Rocky graphics on the web?

The question has come up again and again throughout the years of my youth ministry - "Can I lose my salvation? Does the Bible say I will have my salvation taken away? What does the Bible say about eternal security?"
Due to the overwhelming interest in this area to new believers, allow me to share some Scriptures with you.
1. God does not let saints fall
Micah 7:8 - "when I fall I shall arise"
Psalm 37:24,25 - "Though he fall he shall not utterly be cast down...I have not seen the righteous forsaken..."
2. This is the Lord's doing, and it is not in our power to "undo" it.
Psalm 37:37,40 - "But salvation of the righteous is of the Lord..."
2 Tim. 1:12 "He is able to keep that which I've committed unto Him against that day."
Jude 24 - "...now unto Him who is able to keep you from falling..."
1 Peter 1:5 - "who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time."
3. God knows the believer.
John 10:14 - God tells us He knows His child.
Compare that with the lost He speaks to in Matthew 7:23. "...I never knew you..."
4. The believer is in Jesus' hand.
John 10:28 - "...neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand."
5. The believer will not come into condemnation.
John 5:24 - "He that...believeth on Him that sent me hath everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation..."
