Christians who believe once-saved-always-saved say that while these false teachers have known the way of truth (verse 21), but they never were saved in the first place.
Wakristo wanaoamini kuwa mtu akiokolewa hudumu katika wokovu milele wanasema kuwa ingawa waalimu hawa wa uongo waliijua njia ya kweli (m.21) lakini hawakuwa wameokolewa wakati wowote ule.
