Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P1061 (08-22-25)

Most Are Not Saved, Even Though They Say They Are Saved

 ~ “Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away; behold, the new has come into being.” 2 Corinthians 5:17

~ Most people believe they are saved, because Man has told them they are saved. Yet there is no understanding of what salvation is. They do NOT have the Spirit of God living in them. “The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.” 1 Corinthians 2:14 These verses of the word of God tie things together. For the one without the Spirit does not understand the things of God. If someone is calling a lifestyle that is crystal clear from the word of God that it is a sexual sin, and denying that there is anything wrong with it, they are NOT saved. Because the Spirit of God would obviously make that known to a person directly from the word of God. Now someone can be caught in a sin, but they would not deny it is sin.

So, let’s make sure a person is saved. Let’s make sure the person understands what salvation is. Present the Gospel that saves. Jesus, God in flesh died for your sins, taking them away at the cross, and then coming alive again, so that he could give His Life to people that are dead, when they place Faith in the Faithful One of God. We all need to be saved from the consequences of sin, which is death, and receive the gift of Life. And folks, we were ALL dead to begin with. No one is physically born a child of God to begin with. Everyone must be born again of the Spirit to have Life living in them.


Bob George addresses a caller from El Paso, Texas, concerned about his son’s homosexuality and faith. Bob advises against disassociation and emphasizes the importance of understanding the true gospel, which includes the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. He stresses the need to ensure the son’s genuine salvation experience. Another caller from Santa Cruz questions a Jehovah’s Witness’s rejection of the rapture, and Bob explains the importance of the deity of Christ. A third caller from Queens discusses the permissibility of sin in Christ, and Bob clarifies that while sin is no longer the basis for condemnation, it still has natural consequences.

Salvation is Eternal Life

“Absolutely not, he’s your son, James, that type of what you’re talking about there. And those passages are people who are many times in leadership roles that are claiming to be a Christian and yet openly and blatantly practicing sinful practices. They have no, they have no desire to even talk about them, because you’re wrong and they’re right. To a person like your son, what I would do with him, the first thing I would do with anyone in that type of a deal is to sit down and to see for sure where their salvation is. Like I mentioned earlier, James, there’s a thing of putting you’re saved by faith and faith alone, faith in what Jesus did, not faith in what I do. And so we have to find out, did that boy ever exercise saving faith when he said he was saved, or did he just walk an aisle and go back to the Pew as dead as you went to the altar? What we have to do is to check people out. And the way you do that is, son, I want to get this straight. I want us to talk about this. What is your understanding of the gospel? And James, I would venture to say that what your son is going to come back to is Jesus died for my sins. And at that point you must explain to him, Son, that is not the gospel. You’re not saved by getting your sins forgiven. You’re saved by getting the solution to the consequence of sin, which is death, by the gift of God, which is life, and that’s resurrection. You have short circuited the gospel and therefore never came to a completeness of salvation because you stopped at the cross and did not go on to the resurrection. The cross is what cleared the deck for the divine action of bringing life to the dead. But salvation is being saved from the consequence of sin, which is death, by the gift of God, which is life. And James, so many people claim to be saved and have done nothing more than go forward and thank God for His forgiveness and woe back to their aisle as dead as they went to the altar and thinking they’re saved, told they’re saved. Their life doesn’t represent it. Don’t see a particular change, but they’ve been told by the leaders, you’re saved. And I think that’s why it’s up to parents and people like us to check people out on that and to be sure they understand what the truth of the gospel. Again, that’s where I would start. And in other words, I would find I’d make him answer the question, what is your understanding of the gospel, and I can almost guarantee you what he’s going to say is, Well, Jesus died for my sins. And explain to him, it’s not the gospel. The gospel is the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. All of them have a meaning to them, but the resurrection is the only solution to the consequence of sin, which is death, is the gift of God, which is Jesus, Christ. So you’ve come for forgiveness, but not for the life that gives you the power to for Christ to live his life in and through you. So they’re devoid of power until you come to him by saving faith in His death, His burial and His indwelling life. You. And now, if Christ, Jesus is living in you and me, James and truly living in you and me, the Holy Spirit is living there, and the Holy Spirit is a Spirit of Truth, and Jesus is full of grace and truth, how could I be living in rebellion to what truth is saying? And so it’s impossible for me, for a person to be born again and say it’s okay to practice homosexuality, I’m sorry, you are sinning against the knowledge of truth, and the Hebrews says you got to go to hell doing that. And so the issue is that I may not be able to live in accordance with all of the things that God has the best for me, but I don’t ever want to deny that when God calls something sin to call it something else. And so you have to deal with that issue, that you cannot be in rebellion to the Spirit of God that lives in you may not be able to carry it out. You may be trapped in this sin, and if so, we’re here to help you, but if you deny that, that’s sin, there’s no way for you to be saved. Period. You cannot say, I believe Jesus here, but I deny Jesus here. It doesn’t work that way. So when you either take Jesus and all of him, or you take Jesus and none of him, but you can’t have what he what he came to do on Earth, but deny what he’s doing in your life today. I’m sorry. It just doesn’t work that way. So I would, I would spend some time working with him. I’d spend some time James, not so much concentrating on his homosexuality, but concentrating where he is in his spiritual understanding, and try to help him there, explaining what I just explained to you, son, you can’t do that. It’s not God doesn’t hate homosexuals. He died for homosexuals, but he didn’t die to leave them there. He didn’t die and come alive to leave you in a condition that you were before salvation. If any man be in Christ, he’s a new creation.” – Bob George

John 6:28,29

28 Therefore they said to Him, “What must we do, that we may be doing the works of God?”

29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you should believe in Him whom He has sent.”
