New Testament Warnings About “Losing Salvation” Books Pastor J.D. The only way to lose your salvation is to break the Father's seal of the Spirit.
While over 72 scriptures in the New Testament proclaim that a person can lose their salvation, for the sake of space, I have reduced the list to 35 verses. Because the very idea that someone can lose their salvation, places salvation … God has promised to keep us, assuring us that nothing can separate us from His love (Rom. 8:31–39) and that no one can pluck us out of His hand (John 10:28–29). Second, those who are seeking to be justified by the law cannot be saved in the first place. "Oh, no one can know that they are saved," he said. Therefore, when it says they have fallen from grace, it is not talking about the grace of salvation, but that they are rejecting the grace found in the cross and returning to the law. It was a question that haunted me. Not only did I struggle to find assurance of salvation, but I was also terrified of losing my salvation..

Taken from our book, Hebrews Commentary: The Abrahamic Interpretation, the following Scriptures seem to teach that Christians can lose their salvation; but this is appearance only. Step 7: Change the Meaning of "Everlasting" When you accept Christ as Saviour, you receive the gift of eternal, or everlasting, life. If a Christian can lose salvation, then Romans 8:30 is in error, because God could not guarantee glorification for all those whom He predestines, calls, and justifies. No Scripture says we can somehow become unsealed and give back the Holy Spirit. See Scriptural proof Christians cannot lose their salvation.
Once a person has accepted Christ as Savior, they may wonder if it is possible to lose that salvation. If the analysis of Jesus' words in the couplet above is correct, then there can be no Scriptures to tell us we lose our salvation because the Bible does not contradict itself. We did nothing to deserve this salvation and neither can we do anything to lose it. Hebrews 6:4-6 - For [it is] impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, (Read More...) John 10:28 - And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any [man] pluck them out of my hand. You don’t simply “lose” your salvation, as if it was as easy as that. I had just led his dying mother-in-law to the Lord Jesus Christ, and I turned to him and said, "Isn't it wonderful that she has been saved?" That is not the way things are with God and salvation. Can a Christian lose their salvation after they have truly accepted Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior?
