Nobody on this planet makes studies like pastor Tim.
We can't thank this man enough.
If you can still hear his voice, it’s such a blessed thing?
My heart is not hardened but becomes vexed with what i see happening in the world so i continue to pray.
John Bunyan said the same thing, ie; No matter what you've done, NOT FOR ANYTHING that you have done, if you go to Christ (even now) He will not cast out!
Wonderful.
Praise the Lord
Thank you for this. Perfect timing on my feed.
Thank you, Pastor for making the issue clearer to me. Greetings from Malaysia.
Pastor Tim is a master of logic. We are so blessed to have him.
My heart is so calloused and so hardened I say things I don’t mean my heart rejects Christ I no longer have the will to obey god but I truly truly yearn for god I want him in my life but I’m afraid I’m so far beyond hope
How are you?

I'm so thankful the Lord brought me to this video! What a tremendous blessing! ❤️ Bless you, brother Tim and those who work to produce these videos.
From Amsterdam thank you Pastor Tim for this teaching! So little about this subject online.
Amen!
I have been feeling I need to find a good church. Its so hard with things going on right now, so many restrictions. Lord have mercy on us
Trying to get in touch with you guys. I'm not sure exactly what you could say or do, but your ministry seems more in the truth then any i've found around me and few i've found on the internet. Hope we can talk in any event my situation is bad. God bless.
I hope I could be healed by God
Me too
Im afraid my heart is so hardened since Ive been years taking the word for granted
Praying! I'm in a similar spot keep seeking Him
This is how I feel to
I am in this spot too my heart is so hardened towards the truth and I want God to break my hardened heart by sin. It is really alarming me. How are you doing now.
I feel like this. It feels like my sorrow is not like the godly sorrow.
@@TrentonJackson-pl3le you’re not alone in that. I feel that same thing.
How can i avoid a hard heart where i live? There is no church i can attend bc of a wrong doctrine (WOF) i´m totally isolated. I have no christian friends bc everyone belongs to this sect wof. I live in Sweden and it´s a little country and almost every church have this doctrin wof.
It´s so easy for me to fall in sin. And i know i have a hard heart. And i can only do what i know it´s true and right to try to not fall in temptation, but i have noticed that isn´t the easiest thing. And the Bible also says that in Hebrew 3:12-14. The sin is decietful. But we´re not created to live alone and to live independently of the Body of Christ. But still it has to be that way wether i want it or not. I understand when the Bible says that it will be hard to live as a christian in these last days! That´s so true!
BENDICIONES
Lord have mercy on me please!
Bless God...just a word of encouragement to anyone who is struggling wiv deep dark sin..backsliding...remember this..He who begun a good work in u is faithful to complete it..and all things work together for good...Trust that Jesus will not let anything or anyone take u out of His hand..Praise the Lord
Press on brothers, press on... there is no "but I have..." just press on, seek maturity, seek obedience, go deep unto the word of God, I was living in a situation that I was deeply believing that there was no hope, but God sent me good brothers to preach the word to me, helping me to overcome my sins and to recover my confidence in the Lord, now I am cured, maybe I was not saved before, but now I know that I am, my eyes now are open as they were not before.
It is good for me that I was afflicted, that I might learn your statutes. Psalm 119:71
I recommend reading the book: The doctrine of repentance from Thomas Watson, it is helping me to grow in faith in this area of repentance.
Just pay attention to what pastor Tim is preaching and forget the accusations: "All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out." John 6:37
We don't hope in hope, we hope in Christ.
Can you explain what do you mean by "no hope"? I think I'm in the same situation
@@vicentezapata3040 I was thinking that I was beyond repentance, that I couldn't go to Christ to receive forgiveness. I am sure that the devil uses this strategy to have people in despair.
@@mateusmorais3176 and how were you delivered from that?
@@mateusmorais3176 and why did you think that that was your case?
@Jeremiah Pitts yeah, I'm in the same situation too, since 1 year now
I can hear His voice, I know what He wants me to do, but I don't have the power to obey Him. I've been trying for months but keep on failing. Please help, how can I have a renewed heart?
You must come to the Lord by faith... but you indicate you keep trying; which makes it sound like you are trying to save yourself in your own power. You want to give up on that and believe on Christ and trust what He has done. Jesus said, "It is finished!" (John 19:30). Trust in His finsihed work!
@@illbehonest Thank you ❤😊
I read Mark 6:52 few days ago and was asking God how could the disciples hearts be hardened when they had just seen the feeding of the 5,000? this teaching has helped to explain some of it, God bless.
me too, please pray for me I think I committed unpardonable sin.
Blaspheming the holy spirit without guilt is the sin against Gods gift that he utterly dislikes and can be unforgivable. Once you come to Jesus you have to trust in God in a way that you are over powered by the Holy spirit in a way you just melt for righteousness.
Ask and you will receive with all your heart and God will bury your sins. Put on your armor and ride with God.
Please pray for me I was so on fire and I’ve been avoiding Gods voice or what I think is Gods voice, I want to be with Jesus

Hebrews 10:16-17 (KJV)
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more..... Ezekiel 36:26 King James Version (KJV)
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh........ This is a work of the Holy Spirit. When we receive the holy spirit of the living God, we will testify of Christ. That is his ministry!!!! That's why old things pass away and all things become new. When I received the holy spirit, I did not want my old life back. That's the ressurection power. Christ in us the hope of glory. Greater is he who is in me than he who is in the world. Amen
But what happened if you still refused the holy spirit, because I rejected holy spirit again and again
@@shamasali7335 I think I did too :(
Iam a born again Christain and have a hardened heart. Year after year I have prayed for a spouse and now 74 years old and still alone.This I will never accept.Going through life alone is just awful. If I wasn't a Christian I could have married way back when I was young and beautiful. I think what set me off about being alone this time is my stepbrother who is 79 just married a 55 year old. His wife died in October 2020. How can this be when I have been alone so long and he wasn't even alone for 15 months ? Of course he isn't save so he can do what he wants.Most days I wish I were dead. So much for being saved. Miserable existence. Hope I die in my sleep 😴 soon.
I pray that you are in better spirits Marsha😔🙏🏽💛
Maybe God wanted you to put Him first. The Word says seek Him first and everything else will be yours. Everything we long for, more than God will become an idol. And i don´t think God will answer our prayers if we have idols in our hearts.. Im maybe wrong, maybe you have put Him first, but still, God wont send a knight in shining armour standing outside your door asking you to marry him. 😉
I think you have to go out and try to find him on your own. That´s what the Bible says, indirectly. It´s your responsability, not Gods. We can only pray for His leading and wisdom to choose the right guy. But it´s absolutely n o t too late for you to find you your "prince!" You´re ONLY 74, well it has gone 2 years since you wrote this so now you must be 76 but that´s no age! i know them that is in their 80:ies and have found their life partner. Sheer up! Sorry for being so straight. But i just want to help you. Joine a course or a site where one can find the right one, and don´t give up! . So if you´re not already seeking God, and be in His Word every day and pray every day then it´s the time to do that and then ask Him to lead you. Again, i hope i haven´t hurt you by being so straight and honest.
God loves you and knows your need and longings. He´s a good God! Don´t ever blame Him. It´s not His fault that you´re living alone today. He has a perfect plan for your life. Just repent for being bitter on Him and start seek Him! And do not give up!
God bless you!
This really worries me. I’m a child of God but I’ve definitely had a season recently that i became calloused and rebellious in some sins for a period of time where i wasn’t rooted in the word every day, etc. i wasn’t feeling the sensitivity to the spirit like i used too. This video makes me feel like I’ve lost any chance of being restored to Christ. Is that true? 😢
"This video makes me feel like I’ve lost any chance of being restored to Christ. Is that true?" - I would say no, the takeaway from the verses Tim looked at is not that one who has grieved the Spirit has no chance to be restored. However, hearing about how we can harden our hearts should put fear in us... but where does that fear drive the person? To Christ or despair? It should drive one to Christ. It should cause someone to turn from the things in their life that have caused them to draw away from the Lord. So by all means you want to go confessing whatever hardness you have to Christ and asking for His mercy and help.
Hebrews 5:11 the very same people the Apostle was convinced of better things of (pertaining to salvation) are called hard (dull) of hearing; and yet, it is clearly a very different thing from Matt 13:15 (Isa 6:10). It is not completely uncommon to use "lost" terms to describe true believers in a bad state.
What if you realize that you were never born again but now you have a hardened heart and feel hopeless? I feel like I had many opportunities to really be born again but I missed it.
Me too .....
Hello, how are you now?
Exactlyyyyyy it’s so scary and I feel like I can’t do anything. How are you now?
Hey! All of you here! I'm in the same boat but don't let Satan continue to tell you there's no hope! I'm in this battle to, I have rejected conviction many times and came to Christ only after a ' fear of hell ' everyday I hear my conscience saying its to late! But I try to fight it with what God promised! Christ is alive and if anybody seeks him, if anybody desires him God shall surely draw you to him! Don't give up! I know how it feels! Keep the faith!
@jessicalazo8439 I feel similar. But what will help you and btw, I know this, is three years later, there is a podcast from ask Pastor John about this. Here is the link. ua-cam.com/video/JaMVzW9yiBc/v-deo.html. I feel like I could’ve committed the unforgivable sin in my heart. I’m asking for my heart to be softened. I need to be broken by God and Jesus.
I think my problem is twofold: battling to believe against the thoughts of unbelief, and my dreams I am still cherishing. Still holding onto the hope I maybe can have them one day IF I PUT JESUS FIRST! Be WILLING to give up my dreams, while hoping He may, one day, see fit to give me part of them.
Even tho I am now willing to put them second place to Jesus, I feel now I can NOT even WANT my dreams to come true, and be able to serve Jesus. It is as if I can no longer just be willing to have my dreams crushed - that is not enough.
(One time last year I woke up, feeling calm, thinking to myself, "I don't want to sin." Thinking Jesus had maybe come back to me. The second I thought maybe I could also, one day, fulfill my dreams, although fully meaning to put Jesus first all the way, it felt like a door SLAMMED in my face in side my heart. Did tat mean I had blown my one chance to come back to Christ?)
There was a time when I had the opportunity to put them in Jesus's hands, and MAYBE HE would've, maybe He would NOT have given me a part of them.
NOW, that I failed the tests of faith.
I let my love for my idols eclipse my love for Christ, and GOD HATES IDOLS! He says not to even mention the name of the idols! I feel I can only hope to have hope NOW if I utterly detest my dreams, AND I CANNOT DO THAT! I told Jesus I CAN NOT do it, that HE would have to amputate, but, I get no peace.
_______________________
BACK THEN I once told Jesus I could not be completely complete (spiritually AND physically. Spiritually, yes, but not complete on a lower level, even with Him, without my dreams, and I felt the loving thought, "Yes, you can."
PLEASE just pray Jesus give me back what I had with Him before I renounced Him. PLEEEEASE!
Get as many prayer warriors to pray this! That He give me back that heart of flesh so I CAN
I had it on "easy" street, and did not realize just how blessed I was, because I was blinded by my rage at God for Him not giving me my earthly dreams. All I had to do, it those blessed years from 2015 to 2107, was to allow Jesus to take over my life. It was as if He would have walked me thru it, like a mother "walking" her baby thru his / hers first steps when learning to walk.

HERE is a video of me, back in my happiest days, BEFORE I RENOUNCED Jesus. I am talking about my experience possibly being born again, my desire to be loved by God being more important than even my dreams, but me still being angry at God for not giving me my dreams.)
I have so many sins I committed during this time I wish I could confess to you, so you could know the truth about what a rebellious horrid blasphemous person I was, and yet, Jesus continued to show me nothing but love. And what I thought of as gentle chastisement, after I'd curse Him when I saw in the mirror and on video how UGLY and disabled and retarded I looked, especially compared to the good-looking guys. He would allow my body to start to suffer, and my mind to become agitated, and I'd have to run back to Him in repentance. Sweet repentance, and O the peace when I WOULD repent. Wen I'd repent, I meant to turn from my sinning, but I always fell time and time again, and repented time and time again.
If ONLY I have not just PUT my all in His hands, but LEFT THEM there, when the tests came.
(HERE is a video of me from BACK THEN, much happier days, when I did not realize just how blessed I WAS: talking about Jesus, my dreams. ua-cam.com/video/Do_yB4zoqno/v-deo.html )
BACK THEN I had the ability! I HAD SOMETHING from Jesus I to from Him in that jail, and I CAN N O T DENY THAT!Was I truly had completely born again? Or, did I receive an incomplete faith from Him that failed the tests, and IF SO, CAN I GET A SECOND CHANCE?
BACK THEN I repented one night of a particularly horrible episode of getting angry at Jesus, AND I MEANT IT, and O the peace, the reassurance, the loving thought, "You're not getting rid of me." I don't get it. How can Jesus have lied to me then, if He has utterly forsaken me?
UNLESS... when I renounced Him, AGAINST A SLIGHT PLEA NOT TO... Was that slight plea the Holy Ghost? Was that Jesus getting rid of Himself, and not me getting rid of Him, but, still, it was I who denied Him, so... EVEN if that SO BE THE CASE He STILL let me get rid of HIM by MY denouncing Him.
"You're not getting rid of me," I felt the loving thought BACK THEN.
________________________________
...AS I WRITE THIS, I just prayed to Jesus, was able to again believe n Him long enough to pray, "Lord, PLEASE come back to me, and love me like You once did, and You may crush my dreams, but please give me back what I had with you." AND MEAN IT, until the darkness in me rears back its ugly head.
_____________________________ ...
LAST NIGHT I was repenting of my sin of having renounced Him, and felt so close to be forgiven, the closest I've felt YET when begging forgiveness, but... Woke up this afternoon in exquisite torments because I found myself once again battling this damned unbelief. Concerning this unbelief, my only hope is a Charles Spurgeon sermon, when he was preaching about a demoniac coming to Christ, and the demon throwing the man down. Spurgeon himself said the only time he was an "infidel" was when he began to feel his need for Christ, and he also wrote the Devil will sometimes inject violent thoughts of unbelief into the mind of one coming to Christ. Let's ALL BESEECH JESUS that SUCH IS MY CASE, and NOT RATHER that the Spirit is,instead, sending me strong delusion that I may be damned..
YOU have NO IDEA how bad it is for me here, these past two years! You have no idea HOW BAD my sinning was!And yet, I remember the peace, the love, even when I got blasphemously angry at Jesus, I had a bent in my eart towards Him, that I asked for, (and after struggling and wrestling) finally got from Jesus in jail, in Nov, 2014.
I NEED to know I am not alone, that my case is not an isolated case, so I CAN HOPE! THAT IS WHY I am begging to know THE WORST CASES Tim Conway has encountered from CHRISTIANS, from whom the Spirit withdrew BUT EVENTUALLY CAME BACK to.
THE ONLY HOPE FOR ME is for fervent, effectual prayers of many righteous men and women WHO CARE! I BEG as many of you to start a prayer chain, or a once a week prayed for me by as many as possible, for as long as it takes. TO PRAY FOR ME, DESIRING AND BELIEVING (NOT hoping or just wishing the best for me) their prayers will be eventually answered! If y'all can't do this, then maybe the Spirit is the One Who is not letting you do so.

Praise God Christopher. It appears you are still holding onto the world. You want Jesus, but like Lot's wife, you can't help but wonder what if...what else.... LET GO. LET IT GO. you are at a crossroads now, and it is Jesus or nothing at all. Forget about the self, the flesh, the dreams. They are irrelevant. It is all about Jesus-His needs, His dreams, His will. Don't you think He knows you have dreams and desires? 😊 He knows. He can and will give you much more than you ever hoped or imagined. Stop playing with God. I'm sorry i have to be harsh. The enemy has his foot on your neck and he is now attacking you with unbelief. And he has only just began. Therefore surrender. Die to this world completely and come to Jesus FULLY. No prayer circle is going to 'will you' into God's good graces. We cannot want God for you. You have to want Him yourself. God bless you. God loves you. God is perfect. He loves and wants and blesses perfectly. It is up to you if you want to receive all that. Choose God. ❤❤
@@koriribarsosio4174 WILL U PRAY Jesus allow me to DO this, and walk me thru this so I come out like gold, whatever the cost, whatever the cross. Please! I am powerless of myself!
I will pray. I will cry out to God for you Christopher. ❤❤
I was talking to God about you this morning. I have hit a brick wall. You have to surrender Chris. There is no recourse here. Let go. Let go friend. Please let go. ❤
@@koriribarsosio4174 I am trying. I can NOT do it on my own! I am powerless! The desires are too strong. I NEED JESUS TO HELP! Please pray He do WHATEVER IT TAKES, so long as He gets me to where I need to be and I DO let go and get saved.
I AM WILLING to, but, without the Spirit I AM POWERLESS!
What do you mean YOU have hit a brick wall? That doesn't mean God is not giving you answers, does it?
This flaming torment...
Ordinarily, people have a softness in their desire to come to Christ, but after I renounced Him, AND FELT A SLIGHT PLEA NOT TO DO IT, but I went ahead and renounced Him, in violent anger, and it felt like I crushed His love, like I crushed that Something precious I had gotten from Jesus in jail, in Nov, 2014 and crushed His love for me by renouncing Him in a violent anger, Something left, and I can't get it back.
WAS THAT SLIGHT PLEA IN ME THE HOLY GHOST, and by my denouncing Him anyway DID I BLASPHEME THE HOLY GHOST?
These hurdles of unbelief and my sinful nature in my way. Something's wrong with me.
Sometimes, after 2 years of nothing but terror and torment, I feel cool breezes of hope, like maybe Jesus loves me, but...
HE STILL WILL NOT FORGIVE ME OF MY SIN OF HAVING RENOUNCED HIM! No matter how I beg and pray this sin can NOT be expunged from my conscience, no matter HOW I plead the blood, fighting against a tide of doubt and unbelief TO believe in the atonement. There are times when I almost feel I am closer to getting forgiven of my sin, BUT I NEVER GET THAT FORGIVENESS!
Did I indeed blaspheme the Holy Ghost and His love of God when I renounced that something precious, that love for and from Christ I had, but renounced in a rage?
Dear Jesus, BUT WHAT ABOUT THAT TIME AFTER I renounced you I got angry again. and started to renounce You, but THAT TIME I stopped and thought about what I was doing, and changed my mind and heart so as to feel myself NOT denying You?
"He that cometh to me I will in NO WISE cast out."
Dear Jesus, if You truly said that, I CLAIM IT! PLEASE do not cast me out, and this includes PLEASE DO NOT LET ME FALL AWAY or do anything to MAKE YOU cast me out!
I also claim that verse, "He which begun a good work in you will FINISH IT unto the day of the Lord Jesus Christ." You started a good work in me, NOW, I ask You, by Your Own Word, TO FINISH THE GOOD WORK YOU STARTED IN ME!
Jesus, I once felt You whisper one time, "You're not getting rid of me," so, if You cast me out, then You are a liar.
Study the scriptures by subject and you will get deeper into the heart of God. If you continue with verse by verse, chapter by chapter, you won't get depth that we so desperately need. This is the main difference between me and my wife.
Please pray for me
✝️♥️🙏

How do I forget lifelong damage of child abuse my parent abused me and this led to éveryine else abusing me father of my kids was an abuser and he also taught my kids to do the same I'm an utter train wreck after it and my heart is so angry I know I'm a sinner and did sins of my own yet how do I forget the damage thry did to me it's there all the time whrn I see the consequences of there actions and what I lost
I emphasize with you about that.
Your faith and spiritual maturity, along with wisdom and understanding, will progress according to the efforts you put forth into seeking the Lord God.
"All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him." Matthew 11:27 KJV
"And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments." 1 John 2:3 KJV
"If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him." 1 John 2:29 KJV
"And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life." 1 John 5:20 KJV
Pastor, what about Ezekiel 36:26?
I dont know what happened....i woke up...i have had trouble with this sexual sin...and one point i fell and i felt terrible and didnt commited it again until today.....however today i fell but now...i dont feel remorse...i just feel like 'okay'
We gotta fight the good faith brother. Keep fighting it out even when it seems bleak
What if you said something though?!
my heart is so hard but yet i feel guilty i need help
There is a sin into death and praying for this is moot. I look at this as the last sin on a road of sinning that breaks the camel's back.
James 1:14-15 NASB
But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. [15] Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death.
In the Greek:
the word translated conceived (sullabousa) can be "to seize, to take one so as to make a permanent prisoner: in a hostile sense".
the word translated birth (tikto) can be: "to continually & progressively bring forth sin"
the word translated accomplished can mean "brought to a complete consummation or entire completion".
the word translated death (thanatos) can be both a physical death and also the state of wretchedness in hell or future misery in hell.
So as a whole, the worse case translation would be:
James 1:14,15
Everyone is progressively & continually being "solicited to sin" when he is being continually lured away (as by a seductive harlot) and is progressively being deceptively allured and enticed by their own lust. Then when lust has grabbed you by the throat as to make you it's permanent prisoner, it progressively and continually brings forth sin, and when sin or wandering away from God's life is brought to a complete consummation, it continually & progressively produces death (of the soul), to be followed by wretched misery in Hell.
When he says falling way, does he mean a “Christian” or a true Christian becoming an unbeliever?
I wonder if "Christian"/True Christian as we popularly categorize nowadays is the same as the scriptures infant Christians that were fed milk vs mature Christians that recieved solid food.
kenim Well, what I’m wondering is if someone calls themselves a Christian but really are not
@@petersavage3748 2 different things somebody who call them self Christian and is not is like an unbeliever
What is the Purpose (from Holy Scripture) of putting someone (unrepentant; living in sin) out of Fellowship. For the Destruction of the flesh, so that ...?. They, Their Precious Soul, will be saved.
Likewise ..!.
No, I am thinking, for Satan to kill them BEFORE that person can go too far he cannot come back.
Do the research: the apostolic fathers believed Salvation came in two phases: when you first believed, and when you DIED - in faith. IF you did not endure to the end, you forfeited your Salvation.
Maybe Paul was saying to throw the sinning believer out BEFORE they sinned so in such a way as to cast off their faith, but...
The flaw I see in my line of thinking here, however, is why would Satan take the bait and kill the person BEFORE they had crossed the line, instead of letting them live on till they crossed the line?
Maybe the early church fathers' understanding about Salvation was incomplete at that time but... PAUL, writing to Timothy, wrote, "If WE deny him He will deny US!" Paul, you notice says if WE deny Him He will deny US.
The moral: YOU HAD BETTER ENDURE TO THE END and DIE in faith, to inhnherit the promise.
Maybe God purposefully wants their to be uncertainty about whether you can forfeit your Salvation, or no, so that we may FEAR the Lord. Notice, how those who are fully complete in love, have NO FEAR of losing their Salvation. "There is no fear in love, but perfect love casteth out fear."
So there's no hope once you make shipwreck of your faith right ?
Pray, pray and pray. Everyday. As long as you are still here you have a chance. Turn from sinful ways, repent, and if it is difficult, pray for HIS help, in Jesus Name.
Read Matthew 12:43, 2 Peter 1:5-11 & 2:18-22, 1 Corinthians 10:1-13,
All those were warnings to born again Spirit filled believers
If.u do. Then eterbal burning
@@nicholas6730 where in the bible is that?
I cant find true church all part of ecumenical system.you will feel when the Spirit leaves you..its not our thoughts rebuking them helps.
I guess he believes is Perseverance of the Saints otherwise he would have just said, "Yes, a believer can be hardened and still be saved but struggling, to an extent. But there is also a point where the person goes from being alive in Christ (saved) to being dead in their sins (damned). And they might never come back, or God might graft them in again. So just keep obeying the commandments of Christ and you will not become hardened."
I think the most of TULIP can be true, but are dangerous or straight up not profitable doctrine. Perseverance of the Saints for example I think can really leas to spiritual lazyness
@@kenim The doctrine just has to he preached with balance.
@Edward Russell Tim believes OSAS but not in the way that you can do whatever you want look at his video on it.
Moses wasnt allowed either. He worked hard until the last minute. Explain Moses. God wouldn't let him passed the Jordan river.
Do not be misled. Christ will keep His own and not one of them will be lost. Attempting to transpose the Church in that place is evil and hopeless. The truth and context of Hebrews 3 is found in verse 14.
12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God;
13 but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end,
The context is clear. If you actually are in Christ He will keep you.
The other important context is found in verse 19. They did not have faith, that's why they didn't enter God's rest. Joshua and Caleb were the ones God gave faith. The account of surrounding Israel's first arrival at the promise Land bears this out.
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
Christ is able to keep those he calls
Jude 24 Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling,
And to present you faultless
Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy,
25 To God our Savior,
Who alone is wise,
Be glory and majesty,
Dominion and power,
Both now and forever.
Amen.
