Once Saved, Always Saved...in context.

Rooted in Christ: Cultivating a Faith that Flourishes

The parable of the Sower offers a profound challenge to the notion of "once saved, always saved." While the promise of eternal security in Christ provides comfort, this parable reminds us that genuine faith requires an active and ongoing relationship with God. Like seeds sown on fertile ground, true believers will produce a harvest of spiritual fruit, demonstrating the Gospels transformative power. However, a shallow profession, like a seed on rocky soil, may wither under pressure, and a deliberate rejection of the Gospel leads to a hardened heart, unable to receive the gift of salvation. This parable calls us to examine our hearts, cultivate our faith, and pursue a life that reflects the abundance of God's grace, ensuring that we are not just hearers of the Word but doers also.
