Jesus would not have had to say it if it were not possible it would occur.
“I have prayed that you will not lose your faith! Help your brothers be stronger when you come back to me.” – Luke 22:32
God does not condemn us when we are ‘falling away.’
Remember the one of one hundred and the prodigal son?
Come back.
Someone told another precious to me that I would condemn them because of the choices they had made. So far from the truth. I have been forgiven for SO much stupid stuff that there is no way I could ever condemn anybody!
Those who know they need a Savior are those aware of that from which they were saved.
“For our high priest is able to understand our weaknesses. He was tempted in every way that we are, but he did not sin. Let us, then, feel very sure that we can come before God’s throne where there is grace. There we can receive mercy and grace to help us when we need it.” – Hebrews 4:15-16
Sin is a temporary problem for which Jesus is the only permanent solution.
We are each, always and forever, members of each other’s hearts. Better to traverse the crimson ‘neath capillary boughs together toward eternity, than wander aimlessly hearing faint fragments of each other’s heart beats from afar.
