GAL 5:19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
You are correct, the son never stopped being "his father's creation (begotten)". But, Luke 15:24 says, "This son of mine was DEAD, now has come to life AGAIN. He was lost and now is found." I don't think Jesus intended to portray a "lost & dead" person as "still-being-saved". When it says "alive again" (Greek: "Anazao"), it seems clear it is a allegory for regaining salvation...was the protigal son evern not a son? Nope, but he sure was out of fellowship with his father.

1 Corinthians 6
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
Where in the above verses does it say you can lose your salvation, I can't see it?

Romans 14:17
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Galatians 5:21
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
1 Corinthians 15:50
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
I read the Bible as it is supposed to be read. I do not speak for me, I speak for the one that called me.
