Among Christianity, there exist opposing sides on this concept:

The Arminian/Conditional Security View:

Adherants of this view emphasize that once someone accepts the faith, there is a possibility of them losing salvation due to deliberate, un-repenting sins. These people offer verses from the Bible like, Hebrews 6: 4-6 and 2 Peter 2:20-22, which seem to warn against the idea that once a person is saved, they cannot become unsaved. Gone is the stress on the faithful's ability to “hold-out until the end’ and “stay put in Christ.”

This way if the person was saved in the first instance but renounces Christianity at a later overly stage, it means that the person has actually lost their salvation. There is an aspect which places a demand for continued faith and action on the part of the believer. Such trends on faith include; 1 Timothy 4:1 and Hebrews 3:12-14, which show that people with faith can lose it.

The Calvinist/Eternal Security View:

Those who hold this view believe that once a person accepts Jesus as their Lord and savior, they shall remain that way, forevermore. The basis of their argument is that a believer cannot lose their salvation because it does not depend on their effort but on God’s decision and work. John 10:28-29 and Romans 8:38-39 are some of the verses that are interpreted in the context of the security of a believer for ever.

Those who hold this view would say that if someone genuinely loses their faith, he or she was never saved in the first place. The logic goes that if salvation is based upon the will and action of God, then a believer who is a believer in every sense of the word cannot ultimately fall away. Other verses, like 1 John 2:19, suggest that apostates were never part of the true community of saints.

How to apply the Sermon on the Mount today?

This is a complex theological question that different Christian denominations and scholars interpret in various ways. I'll provide an overview of the main perspectives:

Traditional Christian View:
Most mainstream Christian denominations and theologians consider the Sermon on the Mount (found in Matthew chapters 5-7) to be highly relevant for Christians today. They view it as:

A core teaching of Jesus that outlines Christian ethics and lifestyle.
Applicable to all believers, not just a specific group or time period.
A guide for how to live as citizens of God's kingdom in the present age.

Dispensationalist View:
Some Christians, particularly those adhering to dispensationalist theology, interpret the Sermon on the Mount differently:

They may see it as primarily addressed to Jews, particularly in the context of the coming Kingdom.
Some argue it applies specifically to the Tribulation period or the Millennial Kingdom.

This view suggests the Sermon contains rules for entering the Kingdom, rather than instructions for the church age.

Balanced Approach:
Many Christians take a middle ground:

They see the Sermon as having immediate relevance to Jesus' Jewish audience.
They also view it as containing timeless ethical principles applicable to all believers.
They may interpret some parts as specifically related to the Kingdom, while others are universally applicable.

While the Bible contains regulations and guidance concerning slavery, it does not explicitly condemn the institution. Instead, it provides instructions on how slaves and masters should behave within the context of a society where slavery was a common practice. The teachings of the New Testament, particularly the emphasis on love, equality, and the brotherhood of all believers in Christ, have been interpreted by some as undermining the foundations of slavery, even though the practice itself is not outrightly condemned.
