To paraphrase Dorothy Gale, if you "lost" your salvation then you never really had it in the first place.
To paraphrase Dorothy Gale, if you “lost” your salvation then you never really had it in the first place.
Therefore, you cannot have Assurance of Salvation because you might have never been Saved later in life

Exactly! Many people ‘play the part’ but never truly accept Christ. They love th e emotional comraderiship and support they get from playing the ‘part of the family’, but they never accept Christ.. we know a couple of folks just like the following-
Sadly, many folks are like that. They only joined the church because people paid attention to them, and it helped bolster their social acceptance need. Later however, they claim that they are ‘no longer a christian’ and regret ‘ever having fallen for myths’.
They chose the world over God because the world gives them ‘liscence’ to live a sinful lifestyle that they craves, and which now caters to their emotional social needs.
The funny part is. They claim to be happy and free now, but wow, she is a typical miserable liberal now. She slams Christians to our face now, then if anyone attempts to refute her claims, she screams ‘I will not discuss religion. I don’t want to get into arguments with you’ (we’ve actually had some say this to us after running us and our faith down for the whole conversation. If we try to defend ourselves of Christ for that matter, they accuse us of ‘trying to start a fight and they hang up. )
The perpetually outraged are very fond of claiming that they are ‘at peace, and happy now’ when they walk away from God and His people
Eternal life wouldn’t be eternal if you could lose it.
