Perhaps you should Look at 1 Cor 10:12-14 - this is not being said to unbelievers!

Wherefore he that thinketh himself to stand, let him take heed lest he fall. [13] Let no temptation take hold on you, but such as is human. And God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able: but will make also with temptation issue, that you may be able to bear it. [14] Wherefore, my dearly beloved, fly from the service of idols.1 Cor 10;12-14

And just what happens 'lest he fall's?

I think David expressed it very well in Psalm 51; after HE 'fell'.

...return to me the JOY of my salvation...

(Not salvation itself.)

And where does it say that *falling* = losing one's salvation and going to hell?

Perhaps Catholics should OBEY IT!! Hear and Obey! Catholics obey their 'man' leaders - 'I'm all yours Mary' and their 'pray to this or that saint'! Or them bowing to man to kiss the ring!

Shows once again they are not believers in JESUS but 'man'.

REMINDER: let him take heed lest he fall.
