3 Excuses of Backsliders
3 Excuses of Backsliders
Let’s take a look as what “Backslider” means.
To revert to sin or wrongdoing, especially in religious practice, someone who lapses into previous undesirable patterns of behavior.
A backslider is a saved person who falls into sin. A lost sinner cannot be a backslider. You have to go somewhere before you can slide back.
This will actually help all of us, even though we will never be perfect enough. I know I am not at all perfect, we all fail God each and everyday.
This is why, it is so important to Pray & Ask Jesus to Forgive us each and everyday and night, as we all fail Him. Sometimes, it’s very hard not to do something which may offend Him, or habits which are so hard to break, especially in very stressful circumstances.

Revelations 2:5
2. I have committed the unpardonable sin……….Matthew 12:31-32. Hebrews 6:4-6, 10:26-29
3. I cannot be lost regardless of what I do ………Romans 6:16-23, 8:12-13, 1 Corinthians 3:17, 6:9-11, 9:27, Galatians 5:9-21, 1 Timothy 3:8,
2 Timothy 2:12, Hebrews 3:16, 11:12, 6:4-6, 10:26-29, James 5:19-20, 1 Peter 2:20-22, Revelations 3:5, Exodus 32:32-33
Hebrews 6:4-6 ESV
For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and
have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since
they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.
Hebrews 10:26-31 ESV
For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful
expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy
on the evidence of two or three witnesses. How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has spurned the Son of God, and
has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, “Vengeance is
mine; I will repay.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.”
Proverbs 14:14 ESV
The backslider in heart will be filled with the fruit of his ways, and a good man will be filled with the fruit of his ways.
1 John 1:8 ESV
If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1 John 1:8-10 ESV
If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and
to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
1 John 1:9 ESV
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Jeremiah 3:14 ESV
Return, O faithless children, declares the Lord; for I am your master; I will take you, one from a city and two from a family, and I will bring you
to Zion.
Jeremiah 3:22 ESV
“Return, O faithless sons; I will heal your faithlessness.” “Behold, we come to you, for you are the Lord our
God.”
2 Chronicles 7:14 ESV
If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and
will forgive their sin and heal their land.
John 15:6 ESV
If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned.
