true..only the bible is true..God created man in His own image..body & soul & spirit..& each is separate from the other..if a lost person is saved..then his spirit is saved..his body & soul is not saved..so in his spirit, he cannot stop being a Christian..because that relationship is permanent..Father & child..but since his body & mind is not saved..then his fellowship with Christ will be up & down..growing or backsliding..more like Christ or less like Christ..a Christian cannot stop being a Christian..but he can stop thinking & acting like a Christian..Christ as Saviour
Is not affected by our thoughts or actions..He is the same yesterday and today & forever..once He becomes a lost person's Saviour..He will always be his Saviour...no one can stop from being Saviour..He is not a quitter or liar..He said that He would "never leave us or FORSAKE us"..meaning that even if we try to walk away..He is the good Shephard..He always brings the wandering sheep back to safety..the only way to get saved is to ask Christ to come into our hearts forever to stay..if we do not pray that prayer, then we are not saved..we may think we are..but that would be presumption..christ has only one way to save a lost person & that is by His perfect faith & Hus perfect life & death & resurrection..only Christ is saved & He can give His perfect salvation & blood to us as an eternal & unconditional & irrevocable gift..our faith & repentence does not save us..it comes before our salvation..that is
called justification..which occurs in our spirit..sanctification occurs in our body & mind..on a daily basis..we are supposed to become more & more like Christ..but a Christian can sin out of ignorance..if we do..He will tell us that it is wrong..if we do not stop..He will chastise or whip us..& then if we do not stop..then He will shorten our lives physically..to keep us in the safety of his hand...the Father put His hand over the Son's hand, so a Christian has a double security in Christ. ..He call fall from grace..but he falls right back into Christ..
I am not a lawyer..but legally separated does not always mean that they are still married..I think that it depends upon which state that they are in..to know their real marital status ..I think that you can trust them to tell you the truth..about the truth of their current status..within their state..other than that..you are free to talk anyone that you wish to speak to..as long as it is safe to do so..because the separated husband may be mad that his former wife has a new friend & may resent you if you are in contact with her..but on the other hand... he may be happy that she is developing new friends...even new men friends..and
especially new Christian friends..
especially if you are making her life fulfilling & happy & interesting..some women will keep who their men friends are asecret from their husbands if there
are the jealous type & their marriage is still strongly attached ..but if there I a separation...where the husband is no longer interested in his wife's affection..because of diabetes & low testosterone..they may live in the same house & be friendly & may attend the
auto racing events together..if he spends all of his time fixing up hot rods..for friends..but she may feel totally separated because of his lack of interest in her otherwise..in a sexual or romantic way..so your friendship may fill that void perfectly..without your being anything other than her best friend..there is nothing wrong with that..you can lead both her& her husband to christ..if you wish..plus all of her friends also...the Bible is full of such relationships..you may want to open it up and look again.
What version of the bible are you reading?..does it make any difference which version that you read..in your opinion?..would you be interested in other opinions..if they differ from yours?
In case anyone is interested..the person who started this question is no longer active on this site..he dropped out for some reason..has anyone contacted him on his what's app #?..if you have..what did you find out?..does he have a regular phone for texting?..is he a scamner?
Has been saved..& born again..but they are very fearful of ending up in hellfire forever..because of doubts about His eternal love & unending mercy..& because they gave committed sins which they think are unforgivable..& sometimes they read the Bible & think that it condemns them also..so they go round & round in circles..constantly asking God for forgiveness... & they feel as if their prayers are going no where..leaving them in the quicksand or swamp of despair?
If your prayers are sincere about trying to find a husband..& if you have so much power in your prayer life, have you found a husband here yet..to help you in your ministry?..not yet?..surely the Father wants His children to have a mate..especially if they want to do His will & to evangelize..also..so why is He being so slow to answer your prayer?

DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEART LEST YOU CHANCE FALLING INTO THE DANGEROUS SIN OF 'UNBELIEF'. Most of the people who followed Moses into the wilderness had come to a place of 'belief' regarding God in having witnessed all the plagues put upon Egypt... but when difficulties came in their journey in the Wilderness, doubts also came, and there was 'a falling away' into 'unbelief'... And it appears, according to scripture, that God views the 'state of unbelief' as being equal to having 'no belief'... What can we glean from The Word regarding this? and how might we understand the magnitude of the warning to: 'Harden not your heart as they did in 'the provocation'? So is this what caused those that came out of Egypt to not be able to enter the 'physical' Promised Land?

If you wish to know someone else's viewpoint concerning your question..you can consult the Scofield reference bible..because he suggests a slightly different interpretation is possible..than yours..he says that..possibly..that the book of Hebrews was written to Jewish
believers who had never made the decision to trust in Jesus as their Lord & Saviour ..they had believed in a Trinity..that the Messiah was coming..but had yet determined if Jesus was God in flesh..so Paul was encouraging them to continue in their faith towards making that decision..but was also warning them that the time was short & that they should not delay making their decision..because if the rapture of the church occurred..& they were left behind..that they may then find it extremely difficult with the coming of the worldwide ministry of the antichrist & the false prophet..& their pressuring all to take the mark of 666..that it may become almost too late or impossible to make a correct response to Christ..since
all the Christians will be gone &
Christianity will be outlawed..the blood of Christ is what says us..our faith does not save us..but our faith in Christ makes it possible for Him to save us forever..& to cleanse us of all sins..past & present and future..all in one moment..so that even if a person who is a born again Christian loses his faith & backslides & does not repent & if he dies like that..he will still go to heaven..or be raptured in that condition..salvation is unconditional & is also an irrevocable eternal gift..so that once a person is saved, he will always be saved..but there is a sin unto physical death for a backsliden Christian..he backslides into hell..Christ does not let him backslide into hell..because he is kept safe by the power & love of Christ ..I hope that this helps you to understand the passage..some of the people who followed Moses out of Egypt committed a sin unto physical death.

Is anyone looking for a good church..or a better church to attend..or is not sure if they should attend at all..denominations are too confusing..or someone offended you at a church & you were discouraged..
