Once saved, always saved!

(Arthur Pink)

"They profess to know God, but they deny Him by their works.
 They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work!" Titus 1:16

I have met many people who profess to be Christians, but whose daily lives differ in nothing from thousands of non-professors all around them.

They are rarely, if ever, found at the prayer-meeting,
they have no family worship,
they seldom read the Scriptures,
they will not talk with you about the things of God,
their walk is thoroughly worldly, yet
they are quite sure that they are bound for Heaven!

Inquire into the ground of their confidence, and they will tell you that so many years ago they accepted Christ as their Savior, and "once saved, always saved" is now their comfort.

There are thousands of such people on earth today, who are nevertheless, on the Broad Road that leads to destruction, treading it with a false peace in their hearts and a vain profession on their lips!

"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Matthew 7:13-14
