The Greek word "Apostasia" is a compound of two Greek words: "Apo" = "to move away", "stasis" = "standing or state, or to stand".
Literally, from its basic definition, "apostasia" means "to go away from", or "depart", or "change state or standing from one state to another".
"Apostasia" was used in extra Biblical Greek literature to describe political revolt, or a "going away from the establishment" and in the Septuagint, or Greek Old Testament, when the Jews would "go away" from God to worship other gods.
O propósito divino desses trechos bíblicos de advertência não deve ser enfraquecido pela idéia que afirma: “as advertências sobre a apostasia são reais, mas a sua possibilidade, não”.
Exemplos da apostasia propriamente dita acham-se em Êx 32; 2Rs 17.7-23; Sl 106; Is 1.2-4; Jr 2.1-9; At 1.25; Gl 5.4; 1Tm 1.18-20; 2Pe 2.1,15,20-22; Jd 4,11-13.
Os passos que levam à apostasia são: (a) O crente, por sua falta de fé, deixa de levar plenamente a sério as verdades, exortações, advertências, promessas e ensinos da Palavra de Deus (Mc 1.15; Lc 8.13; Jo 5.44,47; 8.46).
