Dwell On These Things

  • Summary

  • What does it look like to live out Philippians 4:8?

Talk to yourself like God talks to you! In Dwell on These Things, pastor and author John Stange shows how, instead of living at the mercy of whatever thought pops into your mind, you can choose to

    🙏 Replace feelings of discouragement with a sense of God’s goodness

    🙏 Exchange negative self-talk for positive biblical messages
    🙏 Learn to face the day with hope in your heart

    One of the most frequently asked questions among Christians is the question about whether or not it's possible for us to lose our eternal salvation. Some Christians believe it's possible while others do not. My personal belief on this subject has drastically changed throughout the course of my life. The beliefs I held on this subject when I was new to the Christian faith are significantly different from the beliefs I hold at present.

    Even before explaining what I presently believe or offering the Scriptural basis for these beliefs, I also want to acknowledge that I have several close friends who serve in various ministry roles who hold views that differ from mine. I'm grateful for them, and while I consider this a major doctrinal issue with hefty theological and relational consequences, I still consider these friends true brothers in Christ.

    So, what do I believe about this issue? Or better said, what do I believe God's word teaches about the question of whether or not it's possible for a genuine believer in Jesus to lose their salvation? With all sincerity, I do not believe it is possible for someone who has been brought to a saving relationship with Jesus to lose the gift of salvation. Please allow me to explain why I have come to this belief.

    What do you think Heaven will be like? Do you ever wonder what you’ll be doing there, or what your loved ones who have gone there before you might be doing? Have you ever looked into some of the details we’re given in Scripture about life in Heaven?

    There is a mistaken notion in the minds of many people that Heaven might be somewhat boring. It seems that some people think of Heaven as a place where we'll sit around all day, playing harps, floating on clouds, and engaging in repetitious religious ceremonies. That couldn't be further from the truth.

    Prayer allows us to access God’s divine power.

    Prayer prevents us from wandering from the truth.
