Impossible. Everyone who believes in Jesus has eternal life; they have passed over from death into life:One who believes the word and is baptized is in a state of being born again. If he remains faithful to it, he will in actuality be born again from the grave.
21 "For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will.
22 "For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son,
23 "that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
24 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
25 "Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.
26 "For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,
27 "and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. (Jn. 5:21-27 NKJ)
The resurrection of the body is separate and distinct from the being born from above, becoming a New Creature.
The resurrection body is organically connected to the body that died, but like a seed doesn't resemble the plant so it is with the resurrection body, the "supernatural body" believers receive which will be like Christ's resurrected body.
As for the wicked, their corruption laced flesh will be reanimated, hideous worm infested corpses that can't walk around like the "Walking Dead" tv show; they will imprison the wicked souls trapped within them, burning in unquenchable fire piled high in heaps in Gehenna, the garbage dump outside of Zion in outer darkness. There the wicked will be, weeping and gnashing their teeth for the time allotted to them, according to their works.
"Born again" is where the human soul is "energized and changed" by the Holy Spirit, then it is "born from above".
Christ gives eternal life to all who believe, not temporary life which He takes back when people stop believing. God knows who are His.
We don't. We judge by the outside. God sees the inside and knows all things. If you are born again, you can't be unborn.
Hope that truth is sharp and quick enough.
The "believers" who stop believing, fall away to evil, never were saved. They were always TARES sown among the WHEAT:
24 Another parable He put forth to them, saying: "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;
25 "but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way.
26 "But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared.
27 "So the servants of the owner came and said to him,`Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?'
28 "He said to them,`An enemy has done this.' The servants said to him,`Do you want us then to go and gather them up?'
29 "But he said,`No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them.
30 `Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, "First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn."'"
(Matt. 13:24-30 NKJ)
