This message addresses two dangerous doctrines that are widely held by Christians today.
The first is that once a person prayers the sinner's prayer, he should never doubt that he is saved, regardless of his current state. 1 John 1:8-10 makes it very plain that Christians do fall into sin, but 1 John 3:4-10 clearly teaches that people who can live in sin, on and on, without repentance were never saved.
King David's sin involving Uriah makes it plain a true believer can fall into sin, and his response to the prophet Nathan's confrontation demonstrates that he truly knew the Lord (2 Samuel 12:13).
There is another evil doctrine, and that is Christians will escape the demonic persecution that precedes our Lord's return. It is true we will be raptured before God pours out his final fiery wrath on our rebellious planet, but nowhere does the Bible teach that Christians will not come under the fierce persecution of antichrists and the final antichrist, the man of sin (2 Thessalonians 2:1-12).
