I'm more "pickier" than you . I don't willingly receive nor accept nor believe any error as it seems you do.
Or, did you already read ROMANS 2 and SEE where the perfect translation is ?
Found it...

Romans 2 King James Version (KJV)
2 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

11 For there is no respect of persons with God.

12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:

15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another

16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

17 Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

18 And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;

19 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

25 For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

26 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

Tell me, if the security of our salvation is at stake at various times after Christ saved us why did Jesus say that not ONE of his sheep would be lost? (John 6:37-40). Why did Jesus say that his "sheep" are held securely in his hand and that they have eternal life? (John 10:27-30).

Why did Paul say that there was no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus? (Romans 8:1)

Why did Peter also talk about the security of our salvation that is made of "incorruptible seed" throughout 1 Peter 1?

Why did the author of Hebrews say that salvation is once for all (Hebrews 10:10)?

Why did Christ say that those who overcome he will NEVER erase from his book of life in Romans 3:4? And John teaching us what it takes to "overcome" in 1 John 5:4?

Why did Paul say that a believer is SEALED by the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption? Why did Christ say that the Holy Spirit would live with a believer for forever?


I could go on and on. The security of the believer (and the Israelites that accept the messiah.) is taught THROUGHOUT the word of God. It was promised to Abraham it was Promised to Moses, It was promised to Joshua, it even was promised to us if you read the word of God for what it is and don't try to nitpick it to say what you want it to say.

No... the security of our salvation is never under question. What Paul meant in those verses is that our sanctification is being worked on by God every single day we're alive after our salvation. Preparing us for eternity. No, once a person has the Holy Spirit that's it, they're saved. There's no "unsaving" that person. That's what the Bible says. Stop trying to twist the word of God and ignore 99.9% of it just to nitpick a few verses to try to prove your point. The word of God as a whole says what it takes to be saved, how to obtain that salvation, and once you obtain that salvation it can NEVER be lost. From the moment you accepted Christ throughout Eternity.
