Holding Faith

To Have and to Hold

“Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:” (1 Timothy 1:19 (KJV)

Those who teach that salvation can be lost use this verse to say that unless we maintain a tight grip on the faith that saved us, we will make shipwreck of the faith and lose our eternal life.

It will help us to read v19 in context.
