What does it mean to be reprobate?

Answered in 2 sources

Being reprobate means being rejected by God, often linked to a lack of faith (2 Thessalonians 2:10).

The term 'reprobate' refers to a state of being rejected by God, particularly for those who do not love the truth or believe the Gospel. In 2 Thessalonians 2:10, we see that those who perish are characterized by their refusal to accept the love of the truth necessary for salvation. This concept relates to how one examines their own faith; if they are depending on their works or righteousness for divine acceptance, they risk being found reprobate, lacking the true assurance and relationship with Christ that brings salvation. Thus, examining whether Christ is indeed the source of our salvation is crucial to avoid a reprobate state.
