Challenges to Perseverence of the Saints
God's Sovereignty and Man's SalvationSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg addresses challenges to the Calvinist belief in the perseverance of the saints. He argues that in the Calvinist system, those who fall away were never really believers to begin with. However, Gregg acknowledges that there are cases of people who have followed Christ for a time but then depart from the faith. He emphasizes the importance of remaining faithful and trusting in God despite persecution and hardship, and warns against succumbing to sin and the temptations of the world.
