Conditional security is a term used in theology that indicates how salvation can be something to work for. It requires that Christians as believers of Christ must continue to have faith until the very end if they want to be truly saved.
Thus, when you have chosen to enter the race, you must finish running the track for you to receive your prize in the end. This is how a Christian must live like according to the doctrine. However, some people believe otherwise, thinking that once saved, you will always be saved.
It can be concluded, using the former idea on the acquisition of salvation, that humans have the obligation to avoid sin in order to be pleasing in the eyes of God. This would help them get away from the occurrence of apostasy or the falling away from faith into a state of having no faith at all.
Falling away can be led by several factors and these include persecution, acceptance of false doctrine, being tempted to sin and the simple weariness in faith. Believers find it difficult to continue having their faith because they are constantly being persecuted by other people who do not believe them.
In addition, several religious denominations have sprouted everywhere. This has caused people to believe in false doctrines. The changes in the current society have also predisposed people to commit sin. Wealth and power continued to be coveted by people, which is the root of wickedness and greed.
People are called to do good things always despite the challenges in their environment. But sometimes, having the faith to do so can be very difficult. This is why many people fall out and lose their faith in the process. But the Lord promises eternal rewards to those who endure despite the struggles.
Biblical excerpts are being used to support the doctrines of conditional security. However, it is still the choice of a person whether he would believe it or not. What matters most is people must continue doing good because it is a universal truth to do so to maintain order and peace in the society.
