Yes. You can do whatever you want. But if you choose tuesday to believe and not believe on Wednesday, then was the belief on Tuesday real? That's the question. Probably wasn't, so then you never really got salvation. But in any case, it's your choice still. By the way, it's not that you are choosing salvation, it's that you are choosing Jesus Christ to forgive you of your sins. That's salvation. That's what we Christians mean when we talk about salvation.- It's the forgiveness of Christ.

You have free will of choice, believing in Jesus is totally separate from accepting Christ into your life and asking him to be the head of you life. Once the latter is done Jesus lives within our being our very soul via the Holy Spirit, once this happens a person will not and cannot just stop believing we all have doubt and Jesus actually likes us to question, the disciple Peter did this all the time, A person with the holy spirit can't stop believing, not because you don't have free will but rather that having the holy spirit within you will not allow you to make such a decision. We can backslide and stray very far away during rough times but will never stop believing.

It's a funny question.
But belief is pretty hard to turn off, for example I'm positive that if I drop an apple ...it'll fall to the ground.
However, since being born again means of "incorruptible seed" you could be saved and sin ...since we all do ...and still make it heaven.
Give it a try ... take a peek at Romans 10:9, I dare ya.

You can try, but salvation demands a bit more than a choice like G save me today kinda!
for you just keep it simple, try red wine on m,w,f white wine on t. t, s and have a beer on Sunday, and just call that salvation

It is only arminianism that teaches man has a free will. The Bible never says that man has a free will and calvinists certainly don't believe it so you need to prove that first then ask your question. Even God does not have a free will. There are many thing taught in the Bible that God can't do. God can't sin, can't deny Himself, can't lie, can't change His mind. All those things are stated in the Bible. God can't do anything coontrary to His nature, and neither can man.

1 John 2:15-17
15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
if you read this passage you will fiend you answer to your question. ask God to open your mind and heart to what he is telling you about your salvation.

You have to choose to stay commited, or you are freely choosing not to accept Jesus. He wants all of you, not four out of seven days. It would be like marrying someone who wants to be single once a year.

No, you wouldn't truly believe, so you would only be saying "I believe" and expecting to be saved, it takes more work than that. You have to actively believe to be saved. I obviously am not personally God, so I can't speak for him, but that is basically what The Bible says.
