“Being Saved Is A Process”
In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, Mark asks, "Dr. Betters, first of all I want to thank you for your insightful videos. I am subscribed and watch them often. I have watched your video regarding the question if you can lose your salvation once you have committed your life to Jesus. I am saved and firmly believe that this is the only path to Heaven, as the Bible tells us. I have something that weighs heavily on my heart, though. My older sister and I were raised in a church going Christian family in the South. When she was about 13 years old, she was saved (maybe) and subsequently baptized. She became a nurse and lived in different areas of the country, including California. Since becoming an adult (we are both in our 60's now), she has developed her version of God that is not based on anything but her logic or philosophy, certainly not on the Bible. (To be fair, when I was in my 20's, I had similar thoughts and backslid from my childhood beliefs. I have since reconfirmed what I believed as a child and have learned so much more about Jesus Christ and his significance to all of us). She believes that God is real but does not understand who Jesus really is. When discussing this with her, she can get very irritated and says that the Bible is just another book and Jesus was a good man. Heaven and Hell are not real places to her and I think that she thinks our souls will probably go to our own versions of Heaven. She has a good heart but I cannot seem to be able to get through to her without it becoming adversarial in nature. She has a somewhat negative view of Churches and does not know the fellowship that my wife and and enjoy from our church. I pray for Jesus to soften her heart and come to him before it is too late. I am troubled that she will not, and end up in the Hell that she does not believe exists. My SS teacher has a similar take that you had in the video. Was the person genuinely submitting to Christ when they thought they were saved, but do not live a Christian based life or believe in the Bible? Do you have any suggestions?"

I’m 72 & she’s 50. She acts like she could care less if I’m alive or not! If I don’t agree with everything she says she jumps down my throat! I think she’s been to visit me 3 times since her daddy passed. She does work & I understand that she’s tired when she gets home. It has gone as high as 2 weeks before she calls. We did go on vacation together this past May but she was mad 3 out of the 4 days we were gone. It started the 2nd night at a restaurant when I asked her to put her phone down to look at the menu. She started yelling at me to never tell her to put her phone away. I had to get up & walk away because she was so embarrassing. I have prayed each night that God would soften her heart. I write all this because when my mom passed away I had so much guilt thinking of things I should’ve done differently. My daughter is my only child and I’m really not sure if she’d miss me when I go!"
