***There can be residuals from sin. For instance, overendulging with wine, you can wake up with a hangover.***

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?

***I think you get the idea, but none of these sins will cause you to lose your salvation. ***

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.

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.
