Um, would show an old man where the Bible says Lucifer was saved?
Ok not the word I should have used (saved). No he wasn’t saved as we are, but he was a Holy Angel in Heaven and through disobedience was cast down. Just like we are removed from the Book of Life for unrepentant disobedience.
I believe kids are automatically saved from birth and at some point they come of age and must receive Jesus and be born again. Now that age of accountability varies from person to person, but for this exercise we will say they become accountable at 13. Now they go through life and living in unrepentant sin for the next 35 years and accept Jesus at 48. They were either not saved as kids meaning all kids go to Hell or they lost their salvation for 35 years.
I don’t think many true believers lose their Salvation, but I believe it happens. I do think that God will put all kind of road blocks up to try and stop it from happening, but he wants absolute free will by choice Souls not forced robots.
Jesus had a choice... and he chose not to sin by his own free will.
