In Dake's Annotated Reference Bible, in his notes on Mark 16:16, Finis Jennings Dake wrote: This refers to final salvation, as “shall be damned” refers to final damnation.

Good answer.

I thought you'd like it.

Dake's notes, from Dake's Annotated Reference Bible on Mark 16:16: a [ He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned ] Two general results of preaching: 1.

Have you considered Hebrews 12:6-11 as a continuous experience? And, that those that are experiencing it are really sons, even though they are still being chastened and scourged and corrected? The Heb. verses say nothing about the rebukes/corrections being for sin. The sons of God, were reborn of H...

So, it would be correct to say that you aren't aware of any arguments for progressive sanctification? I am unaware of any bible verses that verify a gradual sanctification. The whole idea is just another accommodation for sin. Ask any fan of that doctrine if they have ever met anyone who finally re...
