Quick takeaways

  • Assurance of salvation is possible through faith in Christ, despite the warnings in Jeremiah 17:9 and Matthew 7:21-23.
  • Baptism method (full immersion vs. sprinkling) does not impact salvation; baptism is a sacrament of faith, not a requirement for salvation.

No Salvation for the Devil

God does not owe anyone forgiveness, not even the devil. The devil's destiny is already set for the lake of fire, as seen in Revelation 20. There is no salvation plan for the devil, as evidenced by his ongoing rebellion and enmity against God's people. The devil's repentance or good deeds would not lead to salvation, considering his permanent role as the adversary of God.
