EXCERPT:

Q. "I have a friend who was once saved and baptized and seemingly on fire for the Lord. Then, gradually, he turned away from the Lord, and now actively scoffs at those who believe the Bible and actually tries to convince them that it is all a myth. You say salvation is eternal. How, then, can you explain my friend?"<?xml:namespace prefix = o />

I get this question, or some variation of it, almost every day. If I do, then you probably do, as well. Or maybe you have wrestled with that same question yourself. In either case, it is worth addressing fully here.
