"If
we endure, we shall also reign with Him.
If we deny Him, He also will
deny us." (2 Tim. 2:12)
In
the 1990s, prophecy teachers Marvin Rosenthal, Charles Cooper, and the late
Robert Van Kampen, taught a great multitude of blood washed saints will
overcome the Beast during the Great Tribulation (Rev. 7:9-14). I praise God for their
faithfulness in spreading this critical revelation. But like so many others
they stop short of preaching the whole truth. They teach the saints overcome
the Beast isn't about losing one's salvation. In their minds a person can never
be lost once they are saved. The falling away from the faith is only for
pretenders. These ministers can teach the sequence of events warning our Lord's
coming is near, but reject the eternal consequences. Sadly, they can see the
truth in one area but be blinded in another. This is
why anyone teaching the saints overcome by the Beast will not lose their
salvation is taking away from the prophecy of Revelation.
