In Chapter 18 of the 1689 London Baptist Confession, the opening sentence states, "Temporary believers and other unregenerate people may deceive themselves in vain with false hopes and fleshly presumptions that they have God’s favor and salvation, but their hope will perish."
What are "temporary believers?" Does the Bible teach a category of a person who professes faith for a time, but falls away because they never possessed genuine saving faith in the first place?
Dr. Sean Cole teaches the parable of the soils from Luke 8 to explain what the Confession and the Bible mean by "temporary believers."
