If those who accept the idea (not found everywhere in the New Testament, especially Paul) that faith in Jesus accords salvation that can never be removed, what are the consequences of sin and misbehavior in a person's life? A person could easily think there are no consequences, at least no eternal consequences, since the person was saved by divine grace. So regret and repentance are unnecessary because the person already has a door into heaven.
It would maybe be more appropriate to say that faith/belief in Jesus that does not give up or give out to the very end secures one's eternal saving or salvation, etc, and if it does give up or give out at a certain point, then did they ever really have it to ever begin with, etc...
But it would also be more appropriate to say that only kind of faith that ever truly does this, is only of the kind gifted to you by God, and is not of yourself or because of you, etc, but is God's doing with you and in you, because it both is and always was a gift from God, etc, and is always by his Grace alone, and not because you in any way deserved it any more so than anyone else, etc...
And not because you worked harder at it either, but and/or because and if you did, that was also only because of God also, etc...
But the type of person that is like this, and is gifted like this, does not just not do anything they want with sin, or in the area of sin, etc, but makes steady progress with it all throughout their life, etc, but one person's progress may not be the same as another persons progress, etc, so we should not be judging one another in this area, etc, as judgement is not as "equal in our eyes" or is as "black and white in our eyes" as we may think it is, etc, but is all very very clear, and all always equal (fair, just) to God, etc...
But that being said, most often, if ones eternal salvation does turn out to ever be secure regardless of some sin, etc, they might not have a very pleasant life in this life while they are on their way there maybe, etc...
But ultimately God is the judge and not us, etc, and that our number one primary sin is thinking we can, etc, especially when it comes to each other or one another, etc, and so, for that reason, I might just simply tell other people that sin can possibly be a risk to either one either way maybe, etc, either life, etc, depending on how God will judge you, etc, but that ultimately it is God who will judge you as I cannot, etc, other than to just maybe tell you that it can be a risk, etc, but that I am called not to judge you, but to love you, etc...
And I might also tell them that discipline for sin in this life, is very, very much worth it, if it causes you to repent and be saved for the next life, etc... But then again, even that was not really ever "you" either, but was because God "fully knew you and what he put in you and did in and/or with you", and what he made you either fully capable of, or else not fully capable of, etc... and that, because of that, your not any better than anyone else at all ever, etc, for it is all only ever only by the Grace of God ever only, etc... You have not one single thing God didn't give you, and he may not have gave to all equally, etc...
And as for each one of your specific sins and how God will judge them/you specifically, either in this life or the next, with you specifically, I cannot say, etc, as there is just way, way too much involved with that, etc... But I will tell you that it can be a risk, and maybe sometimes a very serious risk sometimes maybe, etc, and that it's best to not play around with any of it at all ever, if you can, etc...
Do away with as much of it as you are able to right away, and then keep discovering new abilities with it all of the time or always, etc... And then maybe you'll truly make real true genuine progress, etc...
And as one final, final note, beware of all the self-righteous, as they seem to be completely blind to all the sins that they commit that are some of the absolute worst kinds to God, etc, and will try to condemn/damn everyone else but them in their own blindness, etc, which makes them very, very dangerous, most especially due to the way they might appear outwardly to other men, etc... Jesus himself had plenty to say about them, or those, or these ones, etc, "plenty to say about them", etc...
God Bless!
