Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P800 (01-13-23)
Eternal Life is Eternal ~ You Cannot Lose Eternal Life!
~ “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.” 1 John 5:13
~ Yet people want to argue with God, and call God a liar.
~ Manual 14:42
“You can lose it, you know, or you can lose it.”
~ Bob George 14:44
“No, no, you cannot. If you say no, we’re gonna go off Manual. I am not going to argue nonsense. If you want to believe that is because you’re lost my friend. Again. As I said, I know I hate to say that. But the book of Hebrews says if you continually willfully sinning against the knowledge of truth. You’ve heard the knowledge of truth, and you keep sinning against it. The only thing you’ve got to look forward to is going to hell. I don’t want you to go to hell, I don’t want anybody to go to hell. But I want people to come to Christ by faith and faith says, You did it all. No one can snatch me up, can I get you out of my hands. I am saved, and there’s no way to lose what God says is eternal. You’re going to have to call salvation, temporal life, you’re going to have to change verbiage. You’re going to have to change everything to believe what you’re believing, but what you’re believing cannot save you Manual. And I’m not gonna argue that issue with anybody anymore. It is not worth arguing with. And it isn’t worth giving time to. But I’m telling you, if you believe that you can lose what God said you can’t, then you have called him a liar. I do not think that is what you want to stand before God. I’d say, Jesus had a great Christian life. I called you a liar, because that’s exactly what you’re doing.”

Steve 16:35
I’ve spent a lot of time inculcating receiving a lot of biblical information, data and what have you, in whatnot. And I’ve heard people say the thing well, you know, it’s, you know, he’s got it in its head, but it just hasn’t quite made it those three feet down into his heart. I’m not exactly sure how biblical idea is, but I think about this. Honor, it kind of bothers me that with all you know, despite all of this, maybe I really don’t know the Lord, or maybe I really haven’t haven’t come to Him on His terms.
Bob George 17:31
Yeah. Well, Steve, again, I’ve said before the bar, the gospel is unbelievably simple, but it’s also unbelievably profound. But it involves the testimony of God. See, it’s not the testimony of us. It’s the testimony of God concerning his Son, and, and, and, but God also has a testimony concerning us. Now, the whole reason for Jesus being on the earth and teaching on the earth was to show us our need for what he was going to accomplish at the cross and His burial and resurrection. And in order to prepare people for salvation, He had to show us what was going on in our lives underneath the skin, where no one’s looking. And that’s, that’s, that’s the inner man, to show a man that, that our hearts can be wicked and deceitful above all things, and who can know them, and that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. And when a person is honest with you, the inner man, the guy that nobody knows about, you know, full well that that is true. So he had to come to show us the real condition of our heart, which is what prepares us for the cross and the resurrection. His teaching was not encouraging to people. It showed us our condition, by him, showing us his righteousness, it showed me my unrighteousness, merely seeing the righteousness of Christ that do anything for me except to say, Boy, there’s somebody that is righteous. But if I should look at his righteousness, and see that I am unrighteous. Now, that has done something for me, and I’m ready for the cross and for the resurrection. So that was a purpose of God’s Will of Christ walking here on this earth for the three, three and a half some years that he walked here was to show us that. I have to see that I am a sinner. That shouldn’t be too surprising to anybody. But I also have to see what unfortunately Steve has become a missing teaching in Christendom today is the emphasis on the fact that there is a consequence to sin called Death spiritual death and I all that you all we concentrate on is sins. Well, yeah, that sins is sins, but there’s a consequence to that. It’s called spiritual death, that has to be corrected through spiritual life. And when all you do is put the emphasis on the cross and the fact that I’m a sinner, that hasn’t done anything for me, and I’m so I’m a sinner. So Jesus died to take away sins, well, we’ll whoopee I’ll come to out, I’ll accept him as, as my savior. That isn’t gonna hack it, because you got a problem over and above your sins. It’s called death, spiritual death. And so when I see that God says, I are there again, this is a testimony of God, it’s not man’s testimony, it’s God’s testimony, that Bob and Steve, you are, you are born into this world spiritually dead, and, and in need of spiritual life. And that’s the meaning now of the resurrection, you can accept the resurrection of the cross as a historical event that took place just like you can accept the fact that Abraham Lincoln was president of the United States and he was killed in the Ford theater, by by John Wilkes Booth. Yeah, those are historical things that I can say I believe them to be true, I wasn’t there. But the writings that are there are enough to make me believe that that was true. It ain’t gonna do anything for me. Because Abe Lincoln’s death was his death, but Jesus died, so that I could live. I mean, there was there was a meaning far greater than just the historical effect of a death and a burial and resurrection. So when I come to understand the truth that first of all, I am a sinner. And secondly, that there’s a consequence to sin called death. And I’ve got a problem if that’s true. Now, I’m ready to say, is there a solution to that? In Christ Jesus came and God’s testimony about Christ, Jesus came and told us yes, there is I provided a solution for that condition, I did not want my creation, to remain in that condition of spiritual death. And so now that I’ve agreed with God concerning my condition, I’m ready to agree with him in regard to his provision. And that provision is in the person of Christ Jesus, only, he went to a cross and there He who knew knew no sin became sin for you, so that in his resurrected life, you could become the righteousness of God. But how come? well, because there is no righteousness at us, apart from the imputed righteousness given to us by God. And so there’s what salvation is about, I’ve agreed with him concerning my condition. And I now have agreed with him concerning His provision, that when Christ was raised from the dead, so that that life that raised Him from the dead, can raise me from my condition of spiritual death. And now by faith, I’m gonna grab a hold of that and internalize it. It’s just like looking at a chair and saying, I believe that’ll hold you. Well, that’s fine. But are you willing to sit in it? Nah, I don’t want to sit in it. Well, if you don’t sit in it, it’s lip service. When you sit in that you’ve proven that you believe the chair will hold you. Well Jesus is far more dependable than a chair. And so what you’re dealing with there, Steve, is that I believe those things are true. I believe what God said, because of that, that it man’s wisdom that’s God’s, I believe what God said about me, I did not know I wouldn’t have no way of knowing that I am spiritually dead apart from God revealing that to me, but he did reveal it to me. And I have and now I know why Jesus was raised from the dead was so that I too, can enter into His resurrected life with him.
Faith says, I believe that I am putting my faith in that truth. Because I do know something and one of these days, I’m going to die physically. And I’m putting my faith in that truth. To the extent that if that is not true, I’ll go to hell. And I am going to be able to say to God, God, I believe, totally, and I put my faith in what you said about me. And I have put my faith in what you have said about your provision in Christ Jesus, and I am therefore saved. And Steve, when you have done that, you have closed the deal and sealed the transaction between you and God, eternally. And you enter and you enter into a new birth in Christ Jesus predicated upon what Christ said, if you have the Son, you have life. And if you don’t have the Son of God, you don’t have life. So it’s merely putting your faith in those two things. What God told me about my condition, and what God told me in regard to his provision, you express that faith in many ways. One way of doing that is by prayer. And that’s talking to God, acknowledging it what he is just revealed to you that just it just verbalizing something, that prayer doesn’t save you, faith saves you, but it’s a way of expressing that faith. And if you’ve doubted, and if what I’ve said to you make sense. And if that that is the divine logic that God has given to you why you solidify that. And you can do that by prayer, if you’ve already done that there was no need and doing it again. If you haven’t, why, then I would close the deal and close that gap and never doubted again. Do you feel you want to do that tonight, Steve? Or have you already done so? because I don’t want you doing something that you’ve already feel that you’ve done.
Steve 25:45
I have done that. I have done that.
Bob George 25:51
Then you are a born again, Christian. And if you have by faith, not by just by actions, by faith, you would literally believe that with all your heart, mind and soul, you are a child of the living God. Don’t ever let Satan come in and try to get you off of that. Tell him to go talk to somebody else. You’re a child of the living God.
Steve 26:12
Thank you so much Bob.
Bob George 26:14
Steve. Yes. Thank you, you are alive. You are alive in Christ Jesus, and the life that he gave you is not temporal life is eternal life. And the reason you have eternal life is because the eternal consequence of the cross where He took away eternally the cause of death, which is sin, and He took that away so that he could give you life eternal. You and I are brothers in Christ, Steve. Let’s rejoice in that fact.
Steve 26:42
Amen. Thank you so much.
Bob George 26:44
