I disagree. I don't see the implication. In Jesus' parable of the lost sheep, the sheep has simply wandered. It is still a sheep and precious to the shepherd.

But I won't change your opinion, and you won't change mine, so live your life according to your understanding. Please notice that my concept of Salvation goes far beyond what you require. 'The road is narrow that leadest to Salvation..." You 'born again' believers make it all too easy.

Read J.D. Salinger's short story 'Teddy'. It might open your mind a bit.

You miss the point by going to tangents. Of COURSE God still loves us though we are sinners, that was the whole point of the cross. He sacrificed for us and became a propitiation for our sins.

Jesus told Nicodemus, “Ye must be born again.” So if you are denigrating born again believers YOU are the one denigrating Jesus Christ, not me.
