There is no question, no doubt, no equivocation, no uncertain terms herein
such verses: these are explicitly stated facts of The Word of the
Godhead - with all godspeed.
THIS IS AS CERTAIN AS IT GETS !!!
John 6:37; "All " that the Father giveth me "shall come" to me; and him that cometh to me "I will [in no wise] cast out ".
It does not get any clearer than this !!!!
"FREE WILL" began "in Eternity"
*Lucifer fell because of it.
*"And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation" Jude 1:6;
fell because of it.
*"angels he charged with folly" fell because of it. Job 4:18;
elsewise, how did they fall (if) not by free will ?
God elected "us" "chose us" in Eternity !
"we" accepted that election there then ! When we did - it was sign, sealed and delivered !!! and, just as certain to manifest "here" in real time !!! and,
when it did !!!
again "we" said "yes" "yea Lord" "wounded and still, I come" !!!
DONE !!! saved !!! forever !!!
end of story !!!
ALL ELSE are rewards - not Salvation !!!
"yes" you can lose your rewards "here" by the way you live. and, in Heaven (perhaps, also).
"yes" you can lose out on "the great and precious promises" "here" by the way you live.
JUST NOT "THE ONE PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE" UPON WHICH RESTS THE HOPE OF YOUR SALVATION: THIS ONE IS INVIOLABLE. IT'S GOD'S FREE GIFT unto "us" all !
Hebrews 6:18;
That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
Hebrews 6:17-19;
Hebrews 6:19;
Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
Hebrews 6:18-20;
YOU CAN'T / COULD NOT EVEN REFUSE IT if it were even possible to think to do so !!! which, it is not even possible to do. therefore, after that - IT'S A DONE DEAL !!! OVER AND DONE WITH !!! FINISHED !!!
NO UNDOING IT !!! who in their right mind would want to ?
It is patently maniacal, absurd, ludicrous and incredulous to think that someone would literally, actually turn around one day and say, "ok, not for me now; don't want it no more; you can have it back now; thanks, but no thanks; just not for me." i.e. (if) they were truly, really touched by God Himself, called and saved.
NOT EVERYONE WHO THINKS [EVEN BELIEVES] THEY ARE SAVED - are saved.
THE PROBLEM IS -->THIS-->HERE
Matthew 7:20-23;
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Romans 9:31-33;
31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

1 John 5:9-11;
HATH THOU THIS WITNESS ?

art thou a bramble, become grafted into "THE VINE" and then you will have fruit indeed.
Luke 6:44-49;
44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
do you travel the broad way unto a wide gate ?
wrong way !!!
Luke 13:24-28;
24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.
Matthew 7:13-15;
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
DO YOU WREST and/or REFUSE and/or REJECT KNOWLEDGE ?
Proverbs 1:24-32;
24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
25 But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
Hosea 4:1-11;
1 Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
3 Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
4 Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
5 Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7 As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.
8 They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
9 And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.
10 For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord.
11 Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

WHEREAS,bringing forth fruit [the simplest expression of true, genuine, honest, life altering and/or life changing faith [i.e. the kind that changes your heart and mind - which manifests itself in leading a person to the light i.e. the WORD OF GOD for confirmation(s) John 3:21;] = scriptural faith i.e. scripturally founded believing and confessing = confessing the WORD OF GOD] IS ENOUGH TO SAVE ANYONE [from eternal damnation]:
however, THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING !!!!
BRINGING FORTH FRUIT UNTO PERFECTION [THAT REMAINS] is an entirely different matter altogether !!!!
i.e. your simple Salvation WHEREAS IT WILL SAVE YOU AND SAVE YOU FROM ETERNAL DAMNATION (albeit, narrowly)
simple Salvation DOES NOT AND WILL NOT SAVE YOU FROM PRESENT EVIL, SIN, DEATH AND DEMISE NOR FROM THE WRATH TO COME !!!
SALVATION HAS MANIFOLD PARTS

8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
