Backsliding
1. Backsliding by looking back
No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God (Luke 9:62). Also, Remember Lot’s Wife (Luke 17:32).
2. Backsliding by losing savour of saltness
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men (Matt 5:13).
3. Backsliding by leaving heart open to evil spirits
When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first (Luke 11:24-26).
4. Backsliding by returning to sin
Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee (John 5:14).
5. Backsliding by rejecting or taking from the scriptures
And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the Holy City, and from the things which are written in this book (Rev 22:19).
6. Backsliding by yielding to temptation
They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away (Luke 8:13).
7. Backsliding by not abiding in Christ
If a man abide not in me he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned (John 15:6).
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all (I Timothy 4:15).
