Losing salvation

[Blain DeCastro]

There are those who believe in osas and those who believe you can lose your salvation there are many verses that speak of salvation as a gift from God by his grace and very few if any that say that one can lose it. The thing is what many do not consider is what is a gift from God? If it is understood that we are not saved by our own merits then how can we be lost by our own merits? can a gift be lost especially when the gift is from God? is our salvation in our owwn hands or in his? I was in a discussion about this with a person who believes you can lose your salvation due to sin but when prompted with this explanation he had nothing to say I even asked him is your salvation due to your own merits he said no then I asked then how do you lose it by your own merits again no response

So I am wondering can anyone who believes they can lose it prove this to be true or is it just something they were tuaght? Is there anyone here who believes you can? and if so how do you prove it?

Wrong question I think.

Those who are not saved, still think they got saved somehow, and they are SURPRISED! on judgment day when they are cast out.
