What seems to be missing there--because I skimmed a lot of the rambling, is that is often the case...though it need not be.
Since salvation is from God and of God and resides with God, what is missing in that most common drawn out struggle, is that with God there is no division of past, present, and future tense, but rather, He is "the same yesterday, today, and forever." Meaning, that if the matter is drawn out...it is the result of one not fully turning the matter over to God. That is not salvation--that is only a toe in the holy water, and a mere taste of the Holy Spirit.
The problem then...is one of unbelief. Meaning (conversely), if one believes with their whole heart that the are saved having given the matter of their eternal salvation over to God--then "today is the day of salvation."
And yes, it's forever.
