**scripture tells me that I am saved forever **
So you could go out tomorrow and murder someone and you will still be saved?
Even civil law (let alone Church law) doesn’t believe that!
Civil law has absolutely NOTHING to do with it. There may be church law but it has nothing to do with the Bible, only churches. Let me ask you, if I lied to you right now would I still be saved? Or do you think murder is a sin but lying isn’t? God says in his word that ALL sins are bad but then ALL sins were forgiven at the cross. Do you read your Bible at all or just let the Priests tell you how to think?
