Yes, if attempted in the flesh. But I am walking in the Spirit; spiritually minded; Because God through Christ gave me power, through believing on his name, to become one of the sons of God (John 1:12).
Amen! Which is why we should be walking in the Spirit for this to be effectual in us.

So the split-second that you are not walking in the Spirit, God's salvation is no longer effectual, and you have either lost your salvation at that instant, or are heading towards the loss of your salvation either slowly or quickly but inevitably and inexorably? In other words, theoretically, you could gain and lose your salvation, regain and re-lose it a near infinite number of times? On again off again like a light switch? Or is salvation more like a bathtub where God has turned on the salvation faucet, and you have to do your best not to either by accident or on purpose pull the plug because if the water runs out you lose your salvation?
Because this indeed is a brand-new doctrine. I think you need to write a research paper and publish it for peer review.

Why does the Bible speak of quenching the Holy Spirit? Why does the Bible talk of the Holy Spirit departing from a man?
Jackrosie, I know the OSAS doctrine. It is not found in scripture so those who believe it can only repeat the doctrine. One even quoted to me a verse and didn’t notice it was in the command form meaning we must DO something.
You know, just like my marriage, I believe I need to love someone (God) and cultivate that relationship (with Him it stands upon obedience) with all that the relationship calls for to be secure.
Let me ask, if I may, do you believe you are required to love God as He defines that to be in order to be his?

b. I understand God
You done flew the nest.....anyone with eyes can see that you are a fraudulently peddling that which is not found in scripture.....maybe go play your street organ someplace else....no one here is dancing or even listening!
