    How does one reject himself?

    One is a new creation in Christ. Born of God, A child of God. Christ living in you.

    How does one walk away from himself?

    Jesus used the perfect analogy of one who is born of God. Just like the flesh gives birth to flesh and this cannot change, so does the Spirit give birth to spirit and this cannot change. The very analogy does not allow for one to become spiritually unborn. Thus you are left with a doctrine that children of God go to hell. This is not found in the scriptures.

    Paul, John, Peter, James certainly understood and preached OSAS if truly regenerated. Whatever tradition did not understand makes no difference to me.

    Amen! This statement is as OSAS as it gets! :thumbs:

    If you believe this, then why did you lead me to John 15 as a way to disprove OSAS?

    God Bless!
