(hupostole) meaning to draw back or retreat is a Greek noun for negative volition toward Bible doctrine. When you ignore or reject the Word of God, God will administer divine discipline. (apoleia) meaning perdition or for the purpose of destruction refers to the ultimate divine discipline, the sin unto death, administered to those believers who through their rejection of doctrine continuously fail to live the Christian life (1 John 5:17). While the believer can never lose his salvation, no matter how he fails, he will certainly be disciplined by God in time (Hebrews 12:6). But when you are of them that believe to the saving of your soul, you are confidently moving forward in Gods plan by learning and applying Bible doctrine in your soul.
