The "gift" is Christ on the cross, the "Lamb slain from the foundation of the world." Non-refundable. Non-returnable. Personally-inscribed. Indelible. One gift to pay completely for all the sins of His flock (Hebrews 10:10.)

AMEN, Dr. E.! And thanks for the spot on scripture. This dovetails with their idea that our inheritance can be lost or thrown away. I don't see that in scriptures:

Rom 8:16-17 : 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs — heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

Gal 3:29 : 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

So, if we are children then we are heirs. I don't see anything about becoming an unchild or an unheir. :)
