It is said that whatever you want to believe, you can find a few scriptures to support it. All I can say is tell them to pack the barbeque sauce in your casket. You will need it.
You have my deepest sympathies.

I suggest you meditate upon the scriptures rather than use them as your weapon of choice.

Let me guess, you have not read the posts.....
The scriptures do not use the word unsealed. And they don't use the words "Express ticket to Hell" or "See ya wouldn't what to be ya" or "See ya later alligator" But they do say unequivocally that sin can send you to Hell.
Going by what is not in the scripture is no way to understand Christianity.

Furthermore promoting this style of Once Saved Always Saved is a great sin. There are people out there that are struggling to be moral. And it is something that Satan would love, yelling from Hell....."WHOPPIE SIN ALL YA WANT....YOU WILL STILL GO TO HEAVEN!!! Some people hear this BS and think there is no reason to try not to sin, and end up in Hell because of people like you and @PeterAndroz. So go on sinning, you deserve what you get.
A way, or ways, one can "discern" how "far off the beaten path" the "believer" is on?
Check out the number and severity of "CALAMITIES" occurring in your circumstance/s.

Should give one and indication of?:
a) Ephesians 4:30
And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

b) Matthew 5:26
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

c) Romans 11
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

Sealed? Oh YEAH!

It be like "Prego Spaghetti Sauce." "It's IN THERE!"
Does "sealed" mean "Open?" Or, even "accessible?"
Not UNTIL the day of "Redemption!"

So? When does THAT happen?
Different strokes for different folks!
Folks.

Christ through Paul teaches how we receive the HS.
Where does Christ through Paul teach that a SEALED believer can become UNsealed ?

Reader, if you are having difficulty wrapping your head around "sealed untill the day of redemption".

Then think of it like this..

A.) BORN AGAIN...

And the "day of redemption" is when those who are "in Christ" (Sealed by the Holy Spirit) and who are "one with God" (sealed by the Holy Spirit)......will all receive their NEW BODY in the SKY when we meet Jesus during the RAPTURE< as that is the REDEMPTION of your Body.

It shows he will let you go though. It’s important to understand and know? At least in my opinion. I just like sharing the truth on matters.

That could be the “unsealed part” of the question, right?
Apostasy doesn't mean the Holy Spirit leaves us until we return to the fold. The Holy Spirit is not going to come and go once he is indwelling.

In the past the Holy Spirit would come upon people to prophesize in visitations. And he continues to do visitations in order to convict hearts. This is all without being indwelling.

If it serves God's purposes might the Holy Spirit still work through unsactified vessels? Does the Holy Spirit working through someone really guarantee him to be indwelling?

God hasn’t steered me wrong by the spirit of Christ that’s all I know and I have not reason to give up on him.

But I could walk away from it all if choose to. God honors people’s freewill.

No one has ever been forced to have faith in him.

I find it sad when people try to make demands on people or they manipulate others by the use of the Bible.

Those are the things I hate not people but peoples methods.

Especially if they don’t hold themselves accountable for their own actions.

Yet we are warned to not grieve the HS precisely because there will be consequences... What do you think just one of those consequences might be? Mere chastisement? Or possibly something more permanent? What is the "max" length of time during which one can "grieve the HS" and still receive eternal life? At that point, is such a one still considered a believer?
The issue is not whether grieving the Holy Spirit has consequences. Scripture plainly says it does. The issue is whether Ephesians 4:30 teaches that a sealed believer can become unsealed and lose eternal life. The verse does not say that.

Paul says, “And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption” ~Ephesians 4:30. The warning is real, but so is the statement attached to it: “sealed unto the day of redemption.” If the seal can fail before that day, then the verse does not mean what it says.

Yes, God chastens His children. Hebrews 12:6 says, “For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.” That is not “mere chastisement.” It is serious. But Hebrews does not say chastening means God stops being Father to His children. It says, “if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons” ~Hebrews 12:8. Chastening proves sonship. It does not cancel it.

The question about how long someone can grieve the Spirit and still receive eternal life is not answered by Scripture with a number of days, months, or years. Scripture does not give that measurement, so I will not invent one. But Scripture does say this: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me” ~John 10:27. A person who permanently rejects Christ and continues in unbelief has no biblical right to claim he is one of Christ’s sheep.

But Jesus also said of His sheep, “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand” ~John 10:28. He did not say, “They might never perish.” He said, “they shall never perish.”

You said, “our end of the deal.” But Scripture says salvation is not resting on man’s unstable hand. “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ” ~Philippians 1:6. It also says believers “are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time” ~1 Peter 1:5.

That does not excuse sin. Paul says, “God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?” ~Romans 6:2. A true believer can stumble grievously, but Scripture does not describe him as someone comfortable living in rebellion. “Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him” ~1 John 3:9. John is not teaching sinless perfection, because he already said, “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves” ~1 John 1:8. He is speaking of a settled practice of sin as a life pattern.

As for falling away, Scripture does speak of apostasy. But 1 John 2:19 explains the kind of departure that proves the person was never truly of Christ: “They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us.”

So I reject cheap “once saved, always saved” if it means a rebel can live for sin and still claim assurance. But I also reject the idea that Christ loses His sheep. Scripture teaches both: false professors fall away, and Christ keeps His own.

So I reject cheap “once saved, always saved” if it means a rebel can live for sin and still claim assurance. But I also reject the idea that Christ loses His sheep. Scripture teaches both: false professors fall away, and Christ keeps His own.

Matthew 7:21-23 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many [a]miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.”

2nd Corinthians 5:10: For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad..

Matthew 18:9 And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire.

Philippians 2:12 So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling;

1st Corinthians 6:9-10 “Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor those habitually drunk, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God”

Galatians 5:19-21 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: sexual immorality, impurity, indecent behavior, idolatry, witchcraft, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Ephesians 5:3-5 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

John 5:28-29 Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming, in which all who are in the tombs will hear His voice, and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who committed the evil deeds to a resurrection of judgment.

Romans 2:5-6 But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who will render to each person according to his deeds:

The issue is not whether grieving the Holy Spirit has consequences. Scripture plainly says it does.
I stated that because the OP has lost the plot, behaving as if he is not cognizant of the above obvious fact. And without a return to the gist, he risks derailing the thread entirely.

A person who permanently rejects Christ and continues in unbelief has no biblical right to claim he is one of Christ’s sheep.
LIkewise, a believer "who permanently rejects Christ" "has no biblical right to claim he is one of Christ's sheep."

So we need to move from that non sequitur to the meat.

It also says believers “are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation
Indeed @ "...through faith..." i.e. our end of the deal. Free will choice can never be abrogated.

John is not teaching sinless perfection, because he already said, “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves” ~1 John 1:8. He is speaking of a settled practice of sin as a life pattern.
Yep.

As for falling away, Scripture does speak of apostasy. But 1 John 2:19 explains the kind of departure that proves the person was never truly of Christ: “They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us.”
apostasia (Strong's G646) = a falling away, defection, apostasy

It is believers who become apostate.

An apostate is someone who formally abandons or renounces their religious faith. Instead of "apostate," the KJV uses terms like "falling away," "rebellion," or "departing from the faith." Example: Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away [G646] first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition (2 The. 2:3).

So attempting to conflate 1 John 2:19 with "apostasy" is another non sequitur.

Since the OP insists on restricting our responses to a "sealed" vs. "UNsealed" scenario...

The key to understanding re: the OP is to let scripture interpret scripture. Simply by reading all the appearances of the word seal (sphragizō), 26 times in 17 verses, the word defines itself.

The seal, the earnest, a promise, is integral with performance e.g. faithfulness.

Here's another look from a different angle:

Romans 15:25-29:

But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints. For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things. When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit [the alms], I will come by you into Spain. And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

Paul was one that laid out himself to do good every way, like his Master, to the bodies as well as to the souls of people. Ministering to the saints is good work, and is not below the greatest apostles. This Paul had undertaken, and therefore he resolves to go through with it, before he fell upon other work: When I have sealed to them this fruit. He calls the alms fruit, for it is one of the fruits of righteousness; it sprang from a root of grace in the givers, and redounded to the benefit and comfort of the receivers. And his sealing it intimates his great care about it, that what was given might be kept entire, and not embezzled, but disposed of according to the design of the givers. Paul was very solicitous to approve himself faithful in the management of this matter: an excellent pattern for ministers to write after, that the ministry may in nothing be blamed. - Matthew Henry

So I reject cheap “once saved, always saved” if it means a rebel can live for sin and still claim assurance.
But, in the context of the OP, that is not what it "means." Clearly, there is an ongoing agenda with the OP, a dishonest attempt to prove something that is false.

But I also reject the idea that Christ loses His sheep. Scripture teaches both: false professors fall away, and Christ keeps His own.
Yep. But, again, that is not at issue.

Reader; Once Saved Always Saved is false belief, a lie from Satan. Who else would want you to believe you can sin all you want and still go to Heaven not Hell.
The true belief is faith in Yeshua and be good and do good the best you can. Remember your sins because you need to ask forgiveness for them.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1st John 1:9
Remember every Christian......For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. 2nd Corinthians 5:10

So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure. Philippians 2:12-13

False professors and those who sin with impunity are not in Christ.
I don't believe they are able to fall away because they are not in Christ in the first place.

I don't believe their falsity can be used to show the eternal seal of salvation in Christ is false.
I think they show God's word is true.

Those in Christ don't make a habit of sinning.

If they do,they are not his own. They do not know him and he does not know them

I have already responded to this.
Paul explains how many ways sin can send you to Hell.
I would say they are unsealed if they are screaming in agony in a wall of fire.
You keep repeating the same thing because that is all you got. So few scriptures to support your belief.
As they say in England.....You are boring me now.

NOWHERE does he teach that a Eph 4:30 SEALED BELIEVER who sins goes to hell.
Maybe you want to believe you no longer sin ?

Again you are boring me.
Sealed believer----Are you trying to come up with a separate classification of Christians?
What do you think is the difference between a "sealed believer" and a Christian believer?
Paul sent several letters to Christian churches warning of the ramifications of sin.
Me sin, of course.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. 1st John 1:8-9

Again you are boring me.
Sealed believer----Are you trying to come up with a separate classification of Christians?
What do you think is the difference between a "sealed believer" and a Christian believer?

So a Eph 4:30 sealed till redemption believer can become UNsealed BEFORE redemption by their sin ?
List the verses where Paul teaches that :)

Is your whole religion based on this one verse?

I say they are the same and can go to Hell if they unforgiven sins. As per these verses....

1st Corinthians 6:9-10 “Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor those habitually drunk, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God”

Galatians 5:19-21 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: sexual immorality, impurity, indecent behavior, idolatry, witchcraft, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

If you notice Paul does not say except sealed believers. It is no if ands or buts.
