7 Types of Christians Who Cannot Be Saved | Billy Graham Message

dear friends in today's world full of challenges to our faith the Bible highlights seven types of Christians who cannot be saved this isn't a message of judgment but a wakeup call for each of us to reflect on our spiritual lives in today's video we will explore what causes some people to claim the title of believer but lose salvation and more importantly how to avoid walking down that path the let us listen with sincere Hearts to to find God's light shining in our lives before we begin don't forget to support our Channel by liking sharing subscribing

and commenting Amen to help spread the gospel to more people the first type one of the types of Christians who cannot be saved are those who live in name only lacking a genuine relationship with God for them Christianity is merely a mask a social routine or worse a tool to build their image today it's common to see churchgoers treating attendance as a tradition while their hearts remain far from God as Jesus warned in Matthew 158 these people honor me with their lips but their hearts are far from me this is not worship it's deception nominal

Christians can be found across all walks of life from those who engage in religious rituals mechanically to those who treat Faith as a life insurance policy without surrendering their lives to God this isn't just a failure in faith it's an insult to the love God has for us Jesus didn't come to seek fake followers but to call genuine Hearts to repentance and return to him living as a Christian in name only is like building a house on sand as Jesus preached in Matthew 7:26 27 When Storms Come trials Temptations and suffering the house collapses because

it wasn't built on the solid foundation of God's word true Faith isn't habit or display it's a daily living relationship with God you might attend church regularly sing hymns and participate in every religious activity but if your heart isn't directed toward God all of it is meaningless the Apostle Paul reminds us in 2 Timothy 30:5 of those who have a form of godliness but deny its power this is like holding a lamp without oil when Darkness Falls there's nothing to light your path God doesn't demand Perfection from us but he does demand sincerity he doesn't

need nominal Faith he seeks a heart that longs for him those who worship with their lips alone will not see the Kingdom of Heaven not because they aren't good enough but because they haven't made God the center of their lives salvation doesn't come through rituals but through a truly repentant heart walking in his ways the second type of Christians who cannot enter Heaven are those who live double lives this is not a new issue but it remains one of the most serious problems in the church today hypocrisy isn't just a sin it's a direct betrayal

of God who calls us to live lives of honesty and Purity look at Jesus powerful words in Matthew 23 2728 woe to you teachers of the law and Pharisees you Hypocrites you are like whitewashed tombs which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean in the same way on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness this warning is a wakeup call God doesn't tolerate hypocrisy because it destroys the relationship between humans and

him a person who tries to live a double life portraying Holiness in public but drowning in sin in private is living in direct opposition to the gospel hypocrisy not only causes others to stumble but also puts your own soul in grave danger remember nothing is hidden from God nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account Hebrews 4:13 living a double life is a way of denying Jesus through your actions even if your mouth continues to profess Faith a

double-faced Christian is like the fig tree that Jesus cursed Lush on the outside but bearing no fruit and like that fig tree they will ultimately face destruction if they don't repent the most dangerous part of a double life is the false sense of security it creates you think that as long as you maintain a good image in front of others everything is fine but the truth TR is you are building a wall between yourself and God God doesn't seek outward actions he Longs for an honest heart I desire Mercy not sacrifice and acknowledgement of God

rather than burnt offerings Hosea 66 if Jesus who endured suffering Injustice and mockery lived a life of complete Purity and honesty then why do we justify our hypocrisy when he was nailed to the Cross he not only demonstrated forgiveness but also truth he didn't need to appear holy he was Hol itself that calls us to live authentic lives not to please others but to please God ultimately if you don't abandon your double life you won't just lose Heaven you'll lose yourself living truthfully is a battle but it's a battle worth fighting if today you feel

trapped in hypocrisy repent and return to God come near to God and he will come near to you wash your hands you Sinners and purify your hearts you double-minded God not only calls you to him but promises to make you new let go of the mask and allow God to change you from the inside out the third type Christians who do not forgive we know that Jesus sacrificed himself on the cross to forgive all our sins there is no sin past present or future that is not covered by his Precious Blood but what happens when

our actions deny the grace and mercy he has given us do you realize the gravity of this a person harboring hatred in their heart is essentially saying that the blood of Christ the blood that cleansed their sins is not powerful enough to transform their heart as warned in Hebrews 12:15 see to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no Bitter Root grows up to cause trouble and defile many bitterness is a poisonous root and if we do not uproot it it will contaminate both our soul and our life unforgiveness

not only impacts our spiritual life but also destroys our relationships when we withhold forgiveness we build walls that separate us from others and more significantly from God remember jesus' prayer on the cross father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing Luke 23:34 if Jesus could forgive those who crucified him how can we not forgive those who hurt us a person who refuses to forgive may still profess Faith but if their actions do not align with the spirit of forgiveness taught by Jesus they are living a life Far From Grace as 1

John 4:20 States whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar a person who does not forgive cannot truly love God because God's love cannot dwell in a heart filled with hatred ask yourself are you holding on to any bitterness are you refusing to forgive someone remember forgiveness is not about whether the other person deserves it it's about you deserving Freedom forgiveness is the act of letting go of the burden and entrusting judgment to God it is not weakness but the courage to rise above the hurt and trust that God

will heal if you choose unforgiveness you are walking a path that leads to Destruction for there is no room for bitterness in the Kingdom of Heaven but if you choose forgiveness you open the door for God's grace and healing to flood into your life as promised in 1 john9 if we confess our sins he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness let let go forgive and step into the freedom God has promised you the fourth type of Christian who cannot be saved are those who love the

world more than they love God this is not an accusation but a heartbreaking truth emphasized in scripture in John John 2:15 God's word warns if anyone loves the world the love of the father is not in them those who love the world instead of seeking God have bound their hearts to fleeting things like money Fame and worldly pleasures a heart that loves the world is like a smoldering fire at first it's just a small spark perhaps a minor desire or dream of wealth but when that spark goes unchecked it spreads like wildfire consuming all spiritual

desire and pulling you away from God such people often rely on material possessions or achievements to Define their worth instead of relying on God's love they begin to think I am rich I am strong I lack nothing but but scripture rebukes them in Revelation 3:17 you say I am rich I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing but you do not realize that you are wretched pitiful poor blind and naked the world promises happiness and comfort but it is merely an illusion those who place their trust in money or fame will soon realize

that none of it can ever fill the emptiness in their soul Jesus said in Matthew 6:24 no one can serve two masters either you will hate the one and love the other or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other you cannot serve both God and money this means you cannot give both the world and God the same place in your heart if you choose to love the world you are inadvertently pushing God out of your life do not let the love of the world prevent you from entering the Kingdom of Heaven

God is calling you to turn back and make him your top priority he wants you to know that what he has for you is far greater than anything the world could offer let go of your attachment to Temporary things to receive the Eternal Treasures of God where there is no theft no Decay and no loss type five Christians who are indifferent to the needs of others Christianity and love for our brothers and sisters are inseparable if someone truly claims to belong to Christ they must live a life of sacrifice showing love through action just as

Christ sacrificed himself for us however when someone who identifies as a Christian is indifferent to the suffering of others it raises a serious question is their faith truly alive 1 John 4:20 declares whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar for whoever does not love their brother and sister whom they have seen cannot love God whom they have not seen and he has given us this command anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister this verse leaves no room for excuses if you do not love your

neighbor you cannot love God and his love cannot dwell in you look at the example of Jesus in Matthew 5:1 17:20 where he affirms that he did not come to abolish the law but to fulfill it God's law is not just a set of rules but an invitation to love Jesus teaches that anyone who disregards even the smallest of God's commands and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven and unless our righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees we will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven this emphasizes that

love and action must go hand in hand James 2:26 makes it clear that faith without works is dead if you claim to love God but do not express that love through helping your brothers and sisters then your faith is nothing but an empty shell this is not just a warning but also a challenge for all of us to examine ourselves and ask if we are truly loving as God has taught us today many teach that God's law is outdated and irrelevant but be wary of such teachings when you are IND differenter to the suffering of

others you are not only ignoring their needs but also rejecting the opportunity for God to reveal his love through you God did not save us just to enjoy his grace but to become his hands and feet feet spreading his love to those around us do not let yourself become an indifferent Christian let God's love overflow within you and manifest in even the smallest actions a word of encouragement a gesture of care or an act of service can change someone's life when you do this you not only demonstrate your Living Faith but also fulfill God's will

type six Christians who refuse to obey obedience is one of the prerequisites for a true relationship with God Jesus did not come to abolish the law or the prophets but to fulfill them sadly in today's world there are those who claim to be Christians but choose to disregard God's Commandments they hear God's word even read the Bible but fail to live it out the root issue of Disobedience lies in a heart that has not been truly renewed Faith with without works is dead James 2:26 True Christians do not merely hear but also act they cannot

love God while refusing to obey him Jesus taught if you love me keep my commands John 14:15 obedience is the clearest expression of love and reverence for God 1 Corinthians 69 and 10 Paul Wars do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God do do not be deceived neither the sexually immoral nor idolators nor adulterers nor thieves will inherit the kingdom of God this emphasizes that not everyone who claims to be a Christian will be saved if they choose to live in Disobedience and ignore God's Commandments we know that Christ fulfilled

the law so that we could be justified however this does not mean we are free to disregard God's law the law cannot save but it serves as a mirror reflecting God's holiness and will Disobedience not only damages our relationship with God but also hardens our heart the voice of the Holy Spirit grows faint if we continue to live in our own will eventually you may feel as though God is distant but in reality it is Disobedience that builds the wall separating you from him remember not everyone who says Lord Lord will enter the kingdom of

heaven but only those who do the will of the father Matthew 7:21 the father's will is that we believe in his son and live a life that reflects righteousness Holiness and love like Christ type seven Christians who reject correction for many correction feels like a sharp blade cutting into their pride but do you know that in God's hands correction is not a weapon to destroy but a tool to refine making us holy and more like him him yet there are Christians who reject correction whether it comes from God or from fellow Believers when advice or

rebuke is offer they build walls instead of opening doors pride and ego blind them preventing them from recognizing that correction is an act of love from God meant to bring them back to the right path Hebrews 12:6 reminds us the Lord disciplines the one he loves and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son are you reject in correction because you think you're always right perhaps you feel hurt or even angry when others point out your faults but ask yourself could God be using those words to teach you something in reality rejecting correction is not

just an act of Disobedience but a sign of a heart unwilling to change the story of King David serves as a profound example when the prophet Nathan rebuked him for his sin with ba Sheba David did not deny or justify his actions but repented in Psalm 51 he cried out create in me a pure heart oh God and renew a steadfast Spirit Within Me David did not see correction as humiliation but as an opportunity to draw closer to God in contrast consider King Saul who continually Justified his actions and refused to heed correction as a

result he lost his relationship with God his throne and eventually his life rejecting correction LED Saul down a path of Destruction you may may feel that correction is uncomfortable even painful but remember just as a Potter shapes clay to create a perfect vessel God uses correction to transform you if you reject correction you are rejecting the opportunity to grow and become more like Christ in The Community of Faith correction from fellow Believers is essential yet sadly many choose to walk away from the church when criticized rather than stay to learn and grow Paul reminds us

in Galatians 601 brothers and sisters if someone is caught in a sin you who live by the spirit should restore that person gently when you reject correction from the community you not only isolate yourself but also miss the chance to be restored correction is not Rejection it is a sign of love God disciplines those he loves just as a father disciplines his child open your heart and receive correction as a blessing allow God to refine you soften your heart and mold you into the person he wants you to be obedience and accepting correction are not

burdens they are privileges when you accept correction you step into a deeper relationship with God and find that this path though challenging at times always leads to life and blessing dear friends the Journey of Faith is not a road paved with roses but a challenging path to walk in God's truth and light together we have explored seven types of Christians that the Bible warns cannot be saved not to judge or condemn but to encourage each of us to reflect on our lives God does not expect Perfection he seeks hearts that are willing to be humble

obedient and transformed by him remember salvation is a precious gift but it cannot thrive in our lives if our hearts remain dist from him Jesus said in Revelation 3:20 here I am I stand at the door and knock if anyone hears my voice and opens the door I will come in and eat with that person and they with me listen to his voice open the door of your heart and let him enter to renew your life do not let weaknesses complacency or Pride keep you from Drawing Near to God let every day be a Living
