Proverbs 14:14 The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.
Twenty-one examples of beings fallen from grace (continues): [5] Adam and Eve were created in God’s grace or favour (Gen. 1:26-31). They fell from grace by sin and lost the eternal life they would have kept if they had not sinned (Gen. 2:17; 3:1-19; Rom. 5:12-21; 2Cor. 11:3). Nothing is ever said of their salvation from sin. They are not listed with the faith-worthies of the Old Testament (Heb. 11:1-40). Adam was still a sinner at the age of 810 years (Gen. 6:3). He was a son of God (Luke 3:38). Thus, again, sonship is proved not to be a guarantee of eternal life. God promises to punish every angel or man who sins, regardless of sonship or relationship. [6] Adamites. Every person born of Adam was once in grace in Adam and fell from grace or favour when Adam did, for they were in Adam’s loins when he sinned. This is why death passed upon all men (Rom. 5:12-21; 1Cor. 15:21-22; 2Cor. 11:3). If all people fell from the same favour Adam did and are commanded to regain grace in Christ, then it is settled that falling from grace and regaining it can happen more than once (Gal. 4:19).
