Why isn't Acts 2;38, repent and be baptized....et al, proper guidance....?
Please explain your reason?

It is...but it doesn't say "water."

How can you LOSE eternal life?
How can you LOSE the promise you will never perish
How can you LOSE the idea that you will never hunger or thirst. and be assured Gods promise he will raise you on the last day
How can you LOSE the fact you who were dead are made alive. Not by works of righteousness which you do. But By Gods Mercy
How do you Lose the seal of the spirit. Gods seal placed upon you until the day of redemption (resurrections day)
How can you Lose the fact you have been adopted into Gods family. does he just kick you out on the streets and say do not come back?

more importantly., The wage of sin is death, How can you add any work, or works to make up for one sin. And finally Gods requirement is perfection. If you can not meet Gods standard at any time. How can you fall back below it to lose salvation.

You can lose it by acting against your own conscience. Read 1 Corinthians 8. Paul is writing about a man of faith who is influenced by a teaching that was contrary to his conscience. Whether right or wrong made no difference. He sinned against what he thought to be right. We must, and this goes for everyone, live fully up to the light we have and understand. If we believe something to be wrong according to conscience, like smoking for example, but smoke because you meet a Christian who smokes, you have sinned. And as Paul said, the Christian was the cause of him perishing.

I know you know this, whenever someone's interpretations of passages conflicts with plainly stated, clearly written Scripture, we know their understanding is incomplete.

One of my favorite passages concerning this topic is the one you alluded to, that He has sealed us unto the day of redemption. He's paid for us, and put His seal of ownership on us, sealed to show we are His property, to preserve His right of possession until the day He comes to retrieve His purchased possession. Who is able to unseal what God has sealed? No one!

Much love!

God can unseal. They can be removed from the Book of Life if they are unfaithful.

Behold said:
Nonsense.

Salvation is Jesus......
He is our Salvation., and that is why He is titled : Savior.

And where is Jesus, regarding the Born again?

He is : "CHRIST IN YOU, the Hope of Glory".. (Glory is heaven).

So, Christ is now IN the born again, which means that the born again Spirit is now "ONE wtih God".

THIS is the proof of Salvaiton, and its the STATE and STATUS of Salvation, and its ETERNAL.

What is Salvation, as related to ADAM the 1st?

its the restoation of ETERNAL spiritual UNION between God and man, that is created by the finished work of Jesus on The Cross.

This restored Spiritual Union between a forgiven SINNER and Holy God, is ETERNAL, because its created by This.......

A.) = "Jesus is the ONE TIME.........ETERNAL........sacrifice for sin".......because "God hath made JESUS... to be sin for us".

@Wick Stick is correct. It is a ridiculous notion to teach that faithfulness and obedience is now acceptable when it was faithlessness and disobedience that caused the death of the Son of God.
