Rom 8:34-39
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
KJV
I talk to people who believe that one can be saved and then be lost again. That is as wrong as the Calvinist view that not all can be saved, that Jesus died for a select few and not for all. In verse 37 above the Bible tells us that we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. That word conquerors in the Greek language is the phrase “More than conquerors.” I find it very interesting that this is the only place in the Bible that it is used. What is God telling us? That salvation is so secure in Jesus Christ that He uses this phrase, this word only one time in His Word showing us how special salvation is, how secure salvation in. Satan has started more lies concerning salvation than anything else and two of those lies concern who can receive salvation and if it can be lost. I know for sure salvation, once gained through the shed blood of Jesus Christ in repenting of sin and turning to Christ and Christ alone can never be lost. Why do I know that? Because we who are born again are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.
