Does Paul trump John? John says that the Saints that end up in heaven keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus...salvation through Grace, THEN obedience. Unrepentant, willful lawlessness will not be tolerated by God. Those who practice such will NOT be in heaven, no matter how much you want it to be true. That is made absolutely clear in the bible, and even by Paul.

Galatians 5:
19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Is is possible for a ONCE SAVED person to revert back to their sinful nature? OF COURSE IT IS. And what does Paul say of them that do these things? THEY SHALL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD. They commit lawlessness. They break God’s law. If they are unrepentant, they will not be going to heaven. They will be lost.

Same with 1 Cor 6:
9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

And Hebrews 10:
26For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

27But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

28He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:

29Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

Revelation 22:
14Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

(BLESSED ARE THEY THAT DO HIS COMMANDMENTS.....)

15For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

Once saved, always saved is a lie of Satan, that you and your friends perpetuate, that God specifically warned us about. ... Thus you also have those who hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate” (Revelation 2:14, 15).

“The doctrine and works of the Nicolatians came forth from a WRONG interpretation of the grace of God that was preached by the apostles. They misused the Grace of God and the liberty in Christ to fulfill their carnal (sexual) lusts and desires.” (You could substitute ANY OTHER SIN)

1 John 2:3By this we can be sure that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments. 4If anyone says, “I know Him,” but does not keep His commandments, HE IS A LIAR, and the truth is not in him. 5But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him:…

Guess what? Unrepentant liars won’t be in heaven either.
