Eternal Life: Once Saved Always Saved? (Biblical Vocabulary Ep. 4)
<p>In today’s episode of Learning the Fundamentals, we continue our Biblical Vocabulary series by exploring the meaning of <strong>eternal life</strong>.</p><p>You’ve likely heard the phrase, “Once saved, always saved.” It’s a widely held belief—and one surrounded by significant controversy. Since our focus today is eternal life, it’s also necessary to address the closely related doctrine of <strong>eternal security</strong>. Together, we’ll examine several key biblical passages to better understand what eternal life truly means and to consider whether the doctrine of eternal security is, in fact, biblical.</p><p>____________________________</p><p>Daniel Faucett - Science Faith and Reasoning Ministries:</p><p>https://www.scifr.com/</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/sciencefaithandreasoning/</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/danielfaucett1995/</p><p>Shepard Merritt:</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/shepmusic_/</p><p>https://www.tiktok.com/@shepard.merritt</p>

Fight For Your Faith (Sermon Audio)
<p>This is the audio for a sermon I preached on 11/16/2025 last Ragland First Baptist Church.In this sermon, I examine a few significant moments in the life of Nehemiah to discuss the necessity of fighting the good fight of faith. I anchor my sermon on three main points: 1) We must know what we are fighting for - In order to defend our faith, we need to be educated on what we believe and why we believe it (1 Peter 3:15)2) We must know what we are fighting against - Our enemy is not physical, but spiritual (Ephesians 6:12)3) We must know who we are fighting for - Our motivation to fight is to honor God and defend our home (Nehemiah 4:14)_________________________Ragland First Baptist Church (Facebook): https://www.facebook.com/Raglandfirst-------------------------------LINKS--------------------------------Science Faith & Reasoning podcast link: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/science-faith-reasoning/Coffee with John Calvin Podcast link (An SFR+ Production hosted by Daniel Faucett) https://open.spotify.com/show/5UWb8SavK17HO8ERorHPYNLearning the Fundaments (An SFR+ Production hosted by Shepard Merritt): https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/shep304/----------------------------CONNECT-----------------------------https://www.scifr.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sciencefaithandreasoning/https://www.instagram.com/danielfaucett1995/https://www.instagram.com/shepmusic_/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@shepard.merritt</p>
