2 Corinthians 1:22:

We are sealed by the Holy Spirit of God "unto the day of redemption." It protects us from falling away again.
John 10:28-29:
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.
No man is able to "pluck us from Jesus' hand" once Jesus gave us eternal life.
Romans 8:38-39:
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
There is nothing on this world that can separate us from Jesus' Love, once we have accepted Him as our Lord and Savior. 
Romans 11:29:
For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
If God called you to be Saved™, you are Saved™, because God doesn't repent about that. 
Philippians 1:6:
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
God will finish the Work He has begun in us until the last of days. He will prevent us from falling away.
1 Peter 1:5:
Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Again, it is God who makes sure that we keep believing in Him and are Saved™. To say that Saved™ people can fall away again is to deny God's Power to keep us from doing so.
So you see, once a person is Saved™, God will make sure that that person remains Saved™. Are you doubting His Almighty Power?  |
You may be overlooking some too, sir.
but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. Isaiah 59:2
But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him. 1 Samuel 16:14
If there was no free will, then God had none either.
