“Cripes- But if YOU had REALLY accepted Christ- you wouldn’t EVER comit any since henceforth I guess then, huh? “

It just means that the first re-birth wasn’t genuine and you need a do-over...

You are reborn only so long as you live in a state of Grace. It doesn’t mean that you can be saved, turn away from God, and everything will be cool. I suppose you can believe that if you want to though.

Your logic implies that ONLY perfect poeople who never sin can be saved- because supposedly, accordign to yor logic, anyoe thta sins after salvation must not have REALLY been saved i nthe first place- IF that is the case sir- NOONE can EVER be saved because we are ALL sinners who sin continually- Again, getting saved doesn’t mean we magically become perfect saints who never sin again- The son of an earthly father can sin and even turn away from their father- but they are ALWAYS blood kin- Blood children of that father- We TOO becoem the blood kin- the blood children of Christ/God when we accept Salvation- We can not break that connection- It is Christ’s shed blood that we accept as our own at salvation- We becoem blood kin every bit as much as a son is a blood kin of hteir father/parents.
