Living without the commands taught by Jesus and His apostles and the Holy Spirit is like living in mud; it makes people very dirty. Nobody should want to go back to that. Knowing the Lord Jesus Christ sets free those who adhere to Jesus’ commands and sayings. Truth learned from Jesus sets the true disciples of Jesus free. It is not meant to be temporary. Permanent adherence is the only way God intends for these who are becoming the children of God. To lose this salvation requires the disciple to start to shun the very sayings which saved them: To turn their backs on those commands and sayings of Jesus. How evil are the false teachers who try to persuade Jesus’ followers to do this or try to cloud the followers’ thinking to give the illusion that sophisticated philosophical doctrines are better than the true, verified, teachings of Jesus which God confirmed by miracles and by raising Jesus from the dead.
