The Repentance Ultimatum

April 2, 2020

Chris was confused. People taught him that if he did not truly repent of all his sins, he was not really saved. But then Chris noticed that these same teachers continued to struggle with sin themselves, just like him!

So, is there a “repentance ultimatum” in the Gospel? Do we only remain saved if we continue with excellent performance? Where do “infants in Christ” (1 Cor. 3:1) fit into the picture?

In this short video, I address Chris’ confusion and clarify what it means to be saved and to grow up in Christ.
