>The Bible warns Christians that they can "fall from grace" (Gal. 5:1-5), be "cut off" from salvation (Rom. 11:18-22), have their names removed from the Lamb's Book of Life (Rev. 22:19), by committing certain sins and not repenting of them (cf. Eph. 5: 3-5; 1Cor. 6:9; Gal. 5:19, Rev. 21:6-8). In a chilling reminder of the possibility of losing salvation by separating oneself from Christ, Paul says, "I drive my body and train it, for fear that, after having preached to others, I myself should become disqualified." (1 Cor. 9:27).

Here are a couple of additional passages that pretty much spell out the fact that one can lose one's salvation:

Matt: 6:15
Matt: 19:21-35
Matt: 10:22-32
Luke 12:41-46
1 Cor. 15:1-2
Colossians 1:22-23
Hebrews 3:6, 14
Rev. 2:10, 25-36, 3:1-5
2 Peter 2:20-22

These scriptures support one can lose salvation if there not carefull. I dont know about you all out there, but i want to pay heed to Gods warnings. Does that mean we serve God out of fear? No, we serve him out of love and that casts out all fear. Again the motivation in believing this is because the bible teaches it, not because we fear or are insecure, fore God makes us secure by his love that casts out all fear, and he gives our hearts peace by his Spirit.
