When an apostate draws back into perdition, no one has taken him out of God's hand. He has forfeited His own salvation. He is cast forth as an unproductive branch and burned in the fire. This is not because of lack of good works, but because of lack of fruit.
Luke 13:9
“And if it bear fruit,
well: and if not,
then after that thou shalt cut it down.”
Matthew 7:
20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21Not 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.
22Many 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?
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
If one finds it soothing to say that people who lose their salvation were never saved in the first place, then I will let them to that. Just remember to maintain a humble and repentant heart lest you become "never saved in the first place."
