BACKSLIDE
Backslider (bak'-slid-er) cugh lebh: "The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways" ( Prov 14:14). But the Revised Version (British and American) "backslider" conveys the wrong impression of an apostate. The Hebrew expression here implies simply non-adherence to the right, "The bad man reaps the fruits of his act" (Toy, Prov, in loc.).

The book of Romans calls it moving towards 'godlessness' .... IMHO ...
Max Lucado, in his book , In the Grip of Grace says they're are godless folks sitting on the barstool, on the judge's chair and on the church pew.

Backslider is one who has been saved from sin, and then because of various reasons, finds that the sin they left was more desired than the life they have in Christ, and then returns to that sin.

...Backslider.
People can call me this all day long and I could really care less. They have no idea the intensity with which I approach the throne of my savior on a daily basis and the level of Grace that has been afforded to me and by which...I stand.
