People would like to think that if they slip they can just walk wright back in ,but think about it. We on earth don't let people get away with much if there bad 2 times they get put in jail well it mite just be one time .So what gives use the wright to tell god or who ever you take part with that just be cause i have faith its OK for me to sin ,what ever my sin may be.I think from what i have read and it is my opinion that you must be saved then walk in the way of the lord if you do slip and fall it's OK get back up and move forward ,but don't think it's OK to keep slipping in the same sin ,but sin of any kind can keep you out remember so watch out and repent from sins that come to you every day tell you pass.

JOHNNY was ten years old when a man stopped him at a fair and asked: "Young man, do you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?" That sounded like a rather strange question to Johnny, since he had always believed in Jesus. So he answered, "Of course I do." "Praise the Lord!" the man shouted for all to hear. "Another soul saved for Christ!"
Is salvation really that simple? Was Johnny "saved" from the moment he said those words, regardless of what he would do for the rest of his life? Many sincere people would answer yes. Some religious tracts say to write down the date you were "saved" so that you can remember it.

The Best question of all time!
Read 1John 2: 19-20 it says those who went away "never belonged" ex: Judas. But think of it this way "WHo is stronger than Jesus"........?....to say one can lose there salvation would imply someone stronger than Jesus was able to "snatch you from His hand" to which Jesus says "NO ONE will take them from me". Also If SALVATION was something neither you or I could ever do on our own, why would works get us out? If we are saved by grace "so that no man may boast" what could we do to lose that?
Love in its truest form is expressed in obedience. If you love your mom or spouse do you cheat on them just because they love you No! (Read Romans 6). Obedience will be manifested and soon you will realize that wonder of having His will become your will.

Once you accept Jesus as your Savior, your name is written in the book of life and it can never be erased. God knows we are sinners and if you try to be the best you can He knows what is in your heart. If you recite the sinners prayer only to say the words He knows. But I don't believe we have to continually earn our salvation. Some religions will tell people that they have to stay on the righteous path as a form of control. Most religions are all about controling people.

Rom 11:21 For if God hath not spared the natural branches, fear lest perhaps also he spare not thee. Rom 11:22 See then the goodness and the severity of God: towards them indeed that are fallen, the severity; but towards thee, the goodness of God, if thou abide in goodness. Otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
2Co 11:3 But I fear lest, as the serpent seduced Eve by his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted and fall from the simplicity that is in Christ. 2Co 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Christ, whom we have not preached; or if you receive another Spirit, whom you have not received; or another gospel, which you have not received: you might well bear with him.
1Ti 1:18 This precept, I commend to thee, O son Timothy: according to the prophecies going before on thee, that thou war in them a good warfare, 1Ti 1:19 Having faith and a good conscience, which some rejecting have made shipwreck concerning the faith. 1Ti 1:20 Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander, whom I have delivered up to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
Heb 13:3 Remember them that are in bands, as if you were bound with them: and them that labour, as being yourselves also in the body.
Heb 13:4 Marriage honourable in all, and the bed undefiled. For fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
1Co 11:26 For as often as you shall eat this bread and drink the chalice, you shall shew the death of the Lord, until he come. 1Co 11:27 Therefore, whosoever shall eat this bread, or drink the chalice of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord.
1Co 11:28 But let a man prove himself: and so let him eat of that bread and drink of the chalice.
1Co 11:29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord.
Tit 3:10 A man that is a heretic, after the first and second admonition, avoid: Tit 3:11 Knowing that he that is such an one is subverted and sinneth, being condemned by his own judgment.
Heb 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after having the knowledge of the truth, there is now left no sacrifice for sins: Heb 10:27 But a certain dreadful expectation of judgment, and the rage of a fire which shall consume the adversaries.
Heb 10:28 A man making void the law of Moses dieth without any mercy under two or three witnesses: Heb 10:29 How much more, do you think he deserveth worse punishments, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God and hath esteemed the blood of the testament unclean, by which he was sanctified, and hath offered an affront to the Spirit of grace? Heb 10:30 For we know him that hath said: Vengeance belongeth to me, and I will repay. And again: The Lord shall judge his people. Heb 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

There are none. Verses taken out of context can be twisted to say what you want them to. Believing that you can lose your salvation means that Jesus' work on the cross was in vain. He died for ALL of our sins, past, present and future.
