‘Once Saved Is Always Saved, Our Future Sins Are Forgiven.’ Is This So? Part 2
A Sermon by Elise Beatrice – Friday, 30 May 2025
Are our future sins truly forgiven the moment we accept Christ? In Part 2 of this vital sermon, Elise Beatrice continues to dissect the popular—and often misunderstood—doctrine of “once saved, always saved.”
Imagine forgiving someone who deeply hurt you, only for them to commit even worse acts against you later. Would your initial forgiveness cover their new transgressions? Elise uses this powerful analogy to challenge the notion that past forgiveness automatically cancels all future sins.
With raw honesty and unwavering biblical insight, Elise tackles tough questions:
- If all future sins are forgiven, why does Scripture warn against being “tangled up and enslaved by sin again” (2 Peter 2:20)?
- Does a belief in automatic future forgiveness lead to spiritual complacency and a disregard for repentance?
- How does truly “remaining in Christ’s love” (John 15:9-10) contradict the idea that future sins are already absolved?
Elise Beatrice urges listeners to critically examine their understanding of grace and forgiveness. She exposes the dangers of what she calls “false hope” and highlights the importance of actively “remaining in Christ’s love” by obeying His commandments.
This sermon is a wake-up call for anyone comfortable in their faith, yet possibly overlooking the profound implications of genuine repentance and ongoing obedience. Elise Beatrice passionately argues that false teachings are “the devil’s bait,” leading believers astray into a dangerous spiritual complacency.
