Do you agree that when we are saved that we become a new creation in Christ? That we died on that Cross with him and we live by the power of His Resurrection. If therefore we lose that salvation (i.e. lose that new created life) how then can we regain it? Can we be born yet again???

2Pe 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

Our lives on earth are the story of our becoming a new creation. We learn to put on Christ. Or we learn to ignore Christ. We are free.

One who has never been brought to Christ is a sadness, a life lost without any true hope. One who had life in Christ and discarded it is a tragedy. Until we die, Christ is always ready to accept us, no matter how far we have drifted.

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

you can stumble into sin, and Jesus will lift you up. If you throw yourself at it, however...you seem by this passage to have forsaken your birthright.
