Quoted By:
Easiest way to understand salvation is like having child. If you are a good parent you will tell your child not to do bad things because it will hurt them in the end but as children do you do everything your parent tells you to do? No. But those that mean that child stops being your child because they do bad? No. As a loving parent you will discipline them but they never stop being your child. Once someone has trusted Jesus Christ as their only saviour they are eternally secure even if they don't do anything for Him but as you are now a child of GOD for believing He has all authority to discipline you to correct you and even take you home (Heaven) before your time if you do wrong.
