Does the Spirit always remain in the born-again believer?

Believing and confessing is of faith, not works Jeff.

It's no different than any other work that Christ works through a believer. They are still works indeed.

   But I am concerned.  The genuineness of their faith is being tested.  

YES! ... How do you like the dire warnings about losing eternal life,

if you do NOT endure in your faith ... during the tribulation of the antichrist,

and during the incredible pressure to take the mark of the beast?

The whole OP supposes that our Salvation is conditional on works and never addresses

that it is God's Grace and Mercy that draw His elect onto Himself and keeps them by His

Sovereign power. We Love God because He first Loved us, see?

FYI, American churches are absolutely FULL of people who are involved in habitual (unrepentant) sinning!

Even many of the pastors! ... Ever hear of porno?

So, if you claim they are NOT born-again, maybe we're on the same page.

What we do, whether in faith or not, are "works." I do not disagree with Roman 10:9, but the fact remains, if there is something we must do, it is "works."

Works are not a dirty word. They are deemed necessary according to Scripture. The broad brush that people paint is that they fail to differentiate works done for merit, and works that are the fruit of faith; which no man is saved without.

Writing to Christians, Jude says, "Keep yourselves in the love of God." Jude 21

I guess that we can rip Jude out of our Bibles now because he does not agree with our theory.

A more obvious one is Jesus' warning ... STRIVE to enter though the narrow gate, etc. (Luke).

This is in the context of gaining/losing eternal life ... proof available upon request.

Don't think He meant ... STRIVE to be involved in more habitual sinning!

But, I could be wrong.
