***Are you further saying that there is no sin, no atrocity, no crime so heinous, no diabolical act, that will prevent you, the elect, from entering the Kingdom of Heaven?***

Only the grieving of the Holy Spirit. Otherwise, no, nothing will separate me from God.

***Forgive me for my incredulousness, but are you saying that the only penalty that the Reformed suffer for their sins is the moral equivalent of a hangover?***

Why do you try to twist everything I say? I gave you an example of what can happen if you drink too much wine, which, I do believe would be a sin, and the consequences you would immediately suffer. Don’t read any more into it than that.

Please be plain. Can you, the elect, possibly commit an act that will prevent you from entering the Kingdom of Heaven? Yes or no. An example might be profitable.

I am not attempting to twist anything. Does every sin have its own consequence; do you have some more examples beyonds the drinking of too much win?

Also, are there spiritual consequences or only temporal ones?
