i was talking on the phone with a friend last night and our conversation turned to the\u00a0topic of salvation. coming from fairly different religious\u00a0backgrounds our beliefs in the “eternalness” of salvation somewhat vary. he comes from a more\u00a0nazarene-ish influence where\u00a0i\u00a0grew up Catholic and\u00a0became a Christian\u00a0after hearing the Gospel at a Baptist\u00a0youth camp. i have been under the notion that when people come to know Christ as their Savior, they are brought into a relationship with God that guarantees their salvation as\u00a0eternally secure.
