WE ARE " HIDDEN " SO CAN WE BE LOST ?? Col 3:3

Hi to all and this question is adressed by Paul in Col 3:3 !!

Col 3:3 , reads that when we are saved , we have been " HIDDEN / KRYPTO with Christ in God " .

HIDDEN is in the Perfect Tense , Passive voice and in the Indicatice Mood .

The Mood says that what Paul wrote in Col 3:3 , is a FACT .

The Passive Voice means that Christ is doing the HIDDING and the Saving through His blood and not through Works OR through any Effort from man !!

The PERFECT TENSE , means that Past Action with CONTINUING Results .

This means that at your point of Salvation is the Past Tense !!

The CONTINUING RESULTS continue until we die , for we are always in Present Time .

So , OSAS !!

Man can never Lose his salvation , once he is saved !!

That's a relief 'cause I'm notorious at misplacing things.

My mother used to say I'd lose my head if it wasn't attached to my body.

She's right ya know.

So now I know that my salvation thingy is attached firmly to my soul.

I kinda knew that in my gut all along, but it's always nice to have these things confirmed by ancient rumors. ;)
