"If you are a Christian, then you should always be conscious of the fact that YOU are not your body; you are INSIDE your body. "
This is a false dualism you are creating and not found anywhere in historical christianity. It IS found, on the other hand, in gnostism.
"Your body is no good, for it is still under the law of sin and death. "
If you are a christian NO PART of you is under that law. You body dies because it is a consequence of the fall.
First of all ed is all wet, its always been salvation by grace alone through faith. Never by our actions.
"2Jn1:8-9 " This has to do with rewards. Look at the passage, it speaks directly to that. He is talking to christians and the rewards they will recieve in heaven. yes Christians will be rewarded differently but ALL have salvation. This is about rewards NOT loosing salvation.
"James 5:19-20? " its a warning for those who become wrong in their teaching. That isn't to say they loose their salvation.
"Col1:23" again it is a warning about becomeing a inefficent christian, not about loosing salvation.
Peter 2:2:9-11 umm..nothing in here about loosing your salvation at all.
Just read romans chapters 9-11 about loosing salvation, that's what they are all about. Did God go back on his promice of saving Israel because they rejected Christ. In 11:29 in part of the summation of the argument paul says that God's call is irrevocable.
