Delineation of Irrevocable and Revocable Absolutes
At the moment of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ the believer receives forty absolutes, which can be classified as thirty-nine irrevocable absolutes plus one revocable absolute, the filling of the Holy Spirit.
Irrevocable means not to be revoked or recalled, unalterable, permanent, incapable of being retracted. Something irrevocable cannot be interrupted or lost under any circumstances—not through sin, carnality, or failure to fulfill the spiritual mechanics of the protocol plan of God for the Church.
The first thirty-nine absolutes listed in Appendix A are irrevocable under the immutability of God—they cannot be rescinded, recalled, retracted, altered, changed, reversed, interrupted, repealed, annulled, or lost under any circumstances. They cannot be revoked or canceled by any failure on the part of the Church Age believer.
Revocable means to nullify by withdrawing, recalling, or reversing; to interrupt through sin or carnality.
Only the fortieth absolute given at salvation, the filling of the Holy Spirit, is revocable; that is, it can be discontinued through sin or carnality by the Church Age believer.
The believer is commanded to be filled with the Holy Spirit (Eph. 5:18b), the first power option of the protocol plan of God.
The believer is mandated to walk by agency of the Holy Spirit (Gal. 5:16), the first power option and the second problem-solving device.
The filling of the Holy Spirit can be recovered only when you name your sins to God in the privacy of your own priesthood, which is the operation of rebound.
Rebound and the filling of the Holy Spirit, the first two problem-solving devices, create the potential to develop the remaining eight problem-solving devices available to every believer: the faith-rest drill, grace orientation, doctrinal orientation, a personal sense of destiny, personal love for God the Father, impersonal love for all mankind, sharing the happiness of God, occupation with Christ.
