interesting, never saved at all?
So salvation cannot be lost?
Not from God's view, yet from man's view it is messed up, still
There are those that are not God's and might claim to be of God for self gain here on earth, using God's name for the self gain. God allows this for now, seeing Son's name preached. Paul saw this too, while in jail, those that were sincere and those that were not sincere, he praised both ways of people, for the name was still preached and God Father draws people in Spirit and Truth to him to hear and know truth over error and then say to God personally, I believe and God seals these unto him to teach new in truth of love and mercy to all, not a few all.
Such as Jesus spoke of, those that sit in Moses's seat to be careful for the gain one gets from it is not the only reward one, anyone gets, there is a Heavenly reward, God leads you to willingly help, not as people that do that to get things from it.
With people it is impossible to enter the Kingdom of God.
Matthew 19 covers that, read the whole Chapter, which I bet you are familiar with.
As Jesus told his disciples, with man (people) it is impossible to get saved
With God (Jesus's Father) all things are possible.
That was one Saying from Jesus that he was going to a cross and die for us to reconcile us all first, then save us in his risen life, for us to believe it or not afterwords, that it is done as he said it is in (John 19:30) It is finished, what is finished, under Law? to new Law (Hebrews 7:11-12) God saves, we, the people mess up and have messed it up big time, even as the same was done in the first (Old) Testament too
All flesh is dead to God. God desires to save our Souls, so who will believe and see and be dead to first born flesh by the circumcision of' God on that cross for us all (Romans 6:1-12)
