Not even close! It’s for those that read selectively, leaving out the meat of the scriptures, and holding fast to what sounds sweet.

Your opinion, nothing more! I feast on the "meat" of Scripture daily and have for over forty-five years. It sounds to me like you are the one who selectively reads Scripture and holds fast to an accursed gospel because it tickles your ears and gives you a reason to boast of your own merit rather than the true grace of God. Grace means unearned, undeserved, unmerited. You don't get to add your filthy rags of works righteousness to the perfect righteousness of Christ and expect Almighty God to honor them. The Good Shepherd knows His sheep and they know Him. His voice they follow and not that of the hireling. The hireling flees when the wolf approaches and cares not for the sheep. The Lord Jesus Christ gave His life for His sheep. He gives to them eternal life and they shall never perish neither shall any man pluck them from His hands.
