John 10:27-29 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. Jesus paid the penalty for your sins past, present, and future for those who believe in him, this is the gospel. Salvation is a one-time event, not something you "work" to "maintain"; it is a gift from God, not of yourselves. It took me a long time to understand the difference between salvation and discipleship. I am praying for you brothers in Christ.
Not combatting what you saying but I was baptized when I was younger I stirred away from God when I got into high school, partying n smoking weed lusting after women im 19 right now and last year I felt God calling me to return and stay away from sin which I did would that be a example of once saved always saved?
No. Once saved always saved is a lie. You can CHOOSE to willfully keep living in sin. You can CHOOSE to repent and come back to God. You are not a robot. You have a brain. You have a choice. Jos 24:15 And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."
Can you lose your salvation forever…? Edit: I recently willfully sinned, I’ve been having a very horrific struggle with Christianity and TYRING to hold onto it because of my roots and my environment, I keep on trying my best and I feel like that soon I’ll run out of chances and be doomed to eternal suffering.
Im afraid that I’m not saved. I believe and I trust in him but I’m afraid that I’m not truly saved. I have never went to a church of Christ and I don’t know if my baptism is real or my faith and I’m in agony and horror

I'm scared, I felt the Holy Spirit leave my body after a period of willful sin, I told God I would stop smoking weed but I decided one day to do it again. Is there any hope left? I've been free from my willful sins for a while, sometimes when I sing to God I can feel Him. I've never been baptized though. However I have had experienced deliverance from a demon by the power of God and many other things, but since then I've been feeling dry for the most part. I've been praying to God, but sometimes its hard for me to find the words to pray.
You must be baptized for the forgiveness of sins. You must be a part of Christ one church. The church of Christ You must do that- if you don’t- you will not be saved.
I don’t know how to spread the gospel and I’ve been having the feeling of if I don’t tell this person or that person then I will lose my salvation. I wanna tell people the gospel of course but I’m in terror.
I usually wait for Him to come up in conversation or just causally ask “Do you believe?” After a while of knowing someone it never turns out bad. Just a curious question and I then proceed to explain who and what he is for me and them. It’s not perfect but it’s the attempt that matters, love and happiness be in your favor. Don’t fear you’re a child of God. No weapon shall prosper against.
The gospel is simple. How Jesus Hung, bled, and died. He was buried and rose again the third day. He died for the forgiveness of sins. Forgiveness of sins is granted to anyone who is baptized in water. Once your baptized God gives you the forgiveness of sins. Once your baptized God gives you eternal life. Once your baptized God adds you to Christ ONE AND ONLY CHURCH- the church of Christ. Hear the gospel, believe, repent, confess, and be baptized. From there. You must live faithful until death. That’s it. Simple. Anyone who does that- they will be saved. Anyone who worships according to the truth will go to heaven.
@ what does it mean to worship according to the truth. Also my parents are saying the church of Christ is a cult so what do I do. Also they think I trust you more than them, what does it mean to honor my parents?
To worship according to truth means- to open up your Bible- and worship the exact way they did in the New Testament. Ask questions about everything. Confirm everything you do with the New Testament. The church of Christ is not a cult. What’s very interesting- is the apostle Paul. In scripture. Paul said- they called THE WAY a sect. A sect is a cult. Back in Paul’s day- they called the church of Christ a cult. That’s nothing new. It’s from the devil. Act 24:13 Nor can they prove the things of which they now accuse me. Act 24:14 But this I confess to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect THE WAY= it’s only ONE WAY. It’s only ONE CHURCH. Never ever TRUST ME. ONLY TRUST GOD. If I say something that agrees with what the scripture says- you believe it. If I say something that the scripture DOES NOT SAY. Don’t believe me. Always obey God rather than man. That means- you obey God over your parents. Obey God over ANYONE. At the end of the day- you will answer to God. Not mom and dad. Honoring your parents means- to be respectful. But. That DOES NOT MEAN- compromise Gods truth. Obey God rather than man. Acts 5:29 "We ought to obey God rather than men. Romans 3:4 let God be true but every man a liar.

YOU CAN REMOVE YOURSELF FROM THE HAND OF GOD.
Praying you obey the truth one day.
