Backsliding

Summary

Elder Sonny Piles preaches on the biblical concept of backsliding, emphasizing that while God's children are eternally secure, they can still spiritually move backward. He explains that backsliding involves a decline in spiritual growth and faith, marked by forgetfulness of one's salvation, spiritual blindness, and focusing on others' faults. The sermon encourages believers to diligently grow in grace and godliness, warning that stagnation or regression in faith is a serious spiritual condition. Piles also highlights the importance of continual growth in Christian virtues and warns against complacency in the service of God.
