The internet is poor again this evening so I may not be able to get through too much. I will try to keep each comment shorter so that I can get through Mark’s comments.
The conditional clause saids that ‘they’ (husband and wife according to you) must “remain in faith’ aswell as ‘love, sanctification and sobriety’. Now since this is a conditional clause it would appear that if the husband did not remain in faith, the ‘she’ forfeits her future salvation.
It says nothing about “forfeiting” salvation. Paul says “she will be saved…if…” That is an assurance only under certain conditions. Paul cannot say that a person will never be saved, but he can give conditions on what will result in her salvation. He surely knew more about the situation than you or I do. He was the one giving the assurance and I believe him. Since you have no idea what these verses mean, you don’t seem to be so sure about Paul as I am.
That is her or ‘she’ salvation is conditional not only on her faith. love ect, but on their/they faith, love ect. How do you reconcile this?
I already told you. She is fully deceived. She is not coming out of her deception without help. Do you need more help to understand this?
