Yes, and I agree... and I will also admit that my question is kind of "loaded" or is a loaded one also, geared toward those who say "you or one can lose their salvation" for such and such reasons, ect, ect...I'm still looking for a Bible verse that unequivocally says a really "saved" person really "lost their salvation," but am yet to find even one.

The answer is the person who commits mortal sin or apostacizes and does not avail himself of the sacrament of reconciliation.
And "who" does or is doing that...? (either one)...
And, "refusing to be reconciled to or with God", who is doing that...?
God Bless!

Notice that Paul said to "work out" your salvation and not "work for" your salvation in Philippians 2:12. When we "work out" at the gym, we exercise to develop our body that we already have and not to get a body. Farmers "work" the land, not in order to get the land, but to develop the land they already have.Why are we told to work out our salvation in fear and trembling if it's so certain? The reality is that we go through our lives as both saved and damned. We can consider ourselves "saved" when we are in a state of grace, and should consider ourselves damned when we commit a sin which "causes death" (mortal sin). We can only consider ourselves as either saved or damned until we do something which causes us to fall from that state, and we will know where we stand based on our conduct.
Yes, I did take notice of that. Did anything I said lead you to believe I understood otherwise?Notice that Paul said to "work out" your salvation and not "work for" your salvation in Philippians 2:12.
Wasn't sure where you stood, but just thought I would elaborate.Yes, I did take notice of that. Did anything I said lead you to believe I understood otherwise?

Is it possible to change them, or "renew them unto repentance" (again) or not...? Or is their course set and written in stone...? and we, "Shouldn't bother?" basically, or what...?

I was saved at 14.. was out if fellowship for 15 years. Isn't he anazing when he welcome s us back with open arms? Thank God for his undying love for us!Yep I am a prodigal son. Born again at 13, walked away for 11 years, technically should have lost my salvation, wonderfully restored due to prayer of others and God's great grace.
