Unless you do not live perfectly in thought word or deed and do not slip even for a nanosecond! What happens to those people which includes all believers except for about 12 folk like you who think you no longer need to learn Scriptures because you are fully sanctified and have no need for any more learning and growing.
You believe "fully sanctified" is perfection. That is the error of believing sanctification is the name of the process we go through as maturing Christians. There are three stages when we come to Christ:
Justification - All our past sins and unrighteousness has been taken away, including the desires of the old nature. This is called being born again.
Sanctification - Going forward we are set apart for good works.
Glorification - Once the desire to sin is taken away and we have been set apart for good works, the fruit of the Spirit go through a lifetime process of maturing.
Romans 8:
these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.
Steps to glorification:
2 Peter 1:
5 Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, 6 and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, 7 and in your godliness, brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love.
Love is the first and most important fruit of the Spirit and is listed first. However, in the process of glorification it is the last that gets perfected.
Galatians 5:
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24 Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
