Can a saved person lose their salvation by sinning? If so, how much sin can they get away with? What is the Biblical standard for Christians? Let's look at what the Bible says.

Some say that a 'truly' saved person can't willfully do wrong things. Does this idea come from a proper understanding of the Bible?

In this episode we explore the question by examining places like Galatians 5 that are sometimes referred to in order to argue that truly saved people don't practice sin.

Thanks for joining us in 2024! Let's look back on some of the challenges and blessings of this year.

This special episode is dedicated to Freddie Coile. May we be instruments of God's righteousness, just like he was.
