Apostasy

Possibility of Apostasy or falling from Grace.

1. Its Cause. The marriage of the sons of God and the daughters of Men (Genesis 6:1,2).
2. Its Effect on the Human Race. Men forgot God and became giants In wickedness (Genesis 6:3,4).
3. Its Effect on the Creator. "And the LORD repented that he had Made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart" (Genesis 6:6). The word "repent" always describes a change in something. There is a sense In which God cannot change (Matthew 3:9; James 1:17). He is always God, omnipotent and eternal. There is a sense in which He changes His Purposes toward us, otherwise forgiveness would be impossible (Jeremiah 31:34; Hebrews 8:12). God has declared that the soul that sins shall die (Ezekiel 18:4), but the sinner who turns from his sins and obeys the Lord, has the promise of salvation (2 Peter 3:9). God therefore changes His purposes toward men, but He is always God!
4. A child of God can "Die"—Romans 8:12-13, Revelation 3:1-5.
5. A child of God can be "Disinherited" Numbers 14:11-12. 
6. See also James 5:19-20, 1 Timothy 4:1-3, Galatians 5:4, 1 Corinthians 10:12 & 9:27, 2 Timothy 2:17-18, Hebrews 3:12, 1 John 1:7-10, 2 Peter 3:17, Revelation 2:4-5, 2 Peter 2:20-21, Hebrews 10:26-30, Matthew 13:40-42, Galatians 6:7-8, Ezekiel 18:24, 
7. Eternal life already given like, Joshua 6:1-2.
