I don't believe that either, Rae. If you're a Christian you always
have the potential of being saved (Jesus Christ), but you also have
free will which means you always have the opportunity to derail your
progress. Sigh....and we do!

Just remember that a true Christian is in a state of growth
always--he/she is not a finished product.
