The Believers Conditional Security
Daniel D. Corner
This book is FANTASTIC!! I've been reading it and can hardly put it down. It is brilliantly written, it's remarkably reasonable, and it's abundantly scriptural!
This is the most extensive and scriptural refutation to "Once Saved, Always Saved" (i.e A Christian is saved even when he willfully sins, secure even before repenting) I do not know of any other book that so thoroughly exposes such error.
I remember that Brother John Duncan recommended this book before. I would recommend this book to any Christian. It's great for preachers, so they can preach the truth to their flock. And it's great for every day Christians, to encourage them in their discipleship with the Lord.
If anyone wants this book, but cannot afford it, just let me know and I can see about purchasing it for you.

This book is an ax laid at the root of the problem. May God use it to start a reformation.
Dr. Vic Reasoner, Editor, The Arminian Magazine, Issue 1, Spring 1998, Volume 16
... probably the most important contribution to the debate over the security of the believer since Robert Shank...
Pastor L. D. Savage, D.D.
... a must for every pastor's library. It should be referred to often as a resource for truth concerning this subject...
Wesley H. Wakefield, Bishop-General, The Bible Holiness Movement, Canada
... a vital book with a Scripturally-based, plainly written message solidly refuting and exposing the evil deceptions of falsehoods that are currently invading evangelicalism -- a must read for those who would earnestly contend for the true faith of salvation from sin with conditional security. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Leonard Sankey, General Secretary, InterChurch Holiness Convention
... a strong presentation of the case against the popular, but deadly, 'Once saved, Always saved' doctrine ... ferrets out every argument ... and answers [them] ... uncovers the darker side of Calvin, includes ... letters ... written to the principal propagators of Calvinism today, destroys every supposed refuge by scripture ... hundreds of scripture references ... polemic, direct, yet charitable; ... allows no quarter and no secrets, but is gracious ... simply asks that those who believe ... OSAS ... be honest enough to read his treatise and ... make a scripturally-based decision ... a treasure of information [for] those who want to know what well-known ministry personalities are saying, what the Bible says, and how that should affect our belief system ... a must; it ought to find its way into the homes of ... teachers, preachers, and interested laymen. If not a principal text, it should ... be collateral reading for our Bible School ministerial students. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Zenas Bicket, President, Berean University
... a wealth of historical and contemporary resource material on the subject of perseverance and conditional security. With solid biblical interpretation and well-reasoned logic, he refutes the erroneous teachings of current leaders who teach extreme eternal security. He also notes the destructive results of a teaching that has produced a lessening of personal commitment to righteous living. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

... probably the most important contribution to the debate over the security of the believer since Robert Shank wrote Life in the Son over 35 years ago. Not only does the author trace the historical development of the doctrine of perseverance and exegete the passages cited by both sides, but he demonstrates the practical consequences of a false view of this important subject. We will not see revival until there is first a reformation. God is too wise to revive a lawless Church which believes it can sin with impunity. This book is an ax laid at the root of the problem. May God use it to start a reformation. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Dr. Chris Jakway, Spring Arbor College
... based on extensive study combined with a thorough review of the arguments set forth by popular teachers of unconditional security. The reasoning ... is presented very powerfully and with great passion, but to hear Dan Corner in a debate is to hear a calm, rational, and most importantly, scriptural presentation of an issue that easily lends itself to pure emotionalism. To those committed to unconditional security, I challenge you to read this book with an open mind, and take another look at the scriptural passages referenced ... you will gain the integrity of having fairly examined the issue from both sides ... [and] find a cogent view that validates the truthfulness of scripture ... Your reward will be a thorough understanding of the believer's security ... that is crucial if we are to take II Timothy 2:15 seriously, and 'correctly handle the word of truth.' --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Book Description
This fully-documented, 801-page volume will take the reader from the origin of eternal security or once saved, always saved (OSAS) to the present time, as the contemporary OSAS teachers of our day are quoted hundreds of times and their teachings are examined under the light of God's truth. If you are like many, among other things, you will be shocked to learn that the teaching of OSAS is sometimes equated to grace and the gospel! Furthermore, the chapters exposing Calvin's dark side and unmasking the Synod of Dort (1618-1619), will give a factual, historical account that seems to be little known in our day. But most importantly, hundreds of Scriptures are cited in both offensive and defensive ways that will substantiate The Believer's Conditional Security.

About the Author
Dan Corner has been saved for 25 years and is an ordained minister who pastored a non-denominational church in the Pittsburgh, PA area for almost seven years. He has written numerous articles, tracts and booklets dealing with salvation issues and counter-cult information, as well as producing apologetic quarterly magazines and a large website.

The teaching of "once saved always saved" (OSAS) needs to be refuted! OSAS needs to be boldly addressed and refuted as never before! The need is incredible. The truth of God, especially regarding salvation, is always worth being misunderstood over. So, don't let being labeled "divisive," as some unjustly accuse, stop you from boldly speaking out and openly refuting OSAS in Christian love. Remember Judgment Day and our present command to contend for the faith against the grace message which is a license for immorality. This issue of OSAS being a license for immorality is reason enough to keep speaking the truth in love about the believer's conditional security. Our vital need to endure to the end for salvation's sake is another reason.
How could any subject from the Bible, so closely linked to the gospel (1 Cor. 15:2; Col. 1:23) and associated with one inheriting the kingdom of God or not (1 Cor. 6:9,10; Gal. 5:19-21; Rev. 21:8) be a non-essential, as some say? Yet if one disagrees with OSAS he is labeled divisive over a non-essential subject! --
