Can we walk out on salvation?

Curious about something.Some Christians say there's "eternal security".I've also heard others say God won't "force us" to remain saved, and if someone "walks out," and God can't draw them back by non forcible means, they would be allowed to "move out".The Bible states no one can snatch those chosen out of Gods hands....but does that leave open that THEY THEMSELVES can by choice leave? Well, one statement seems to bear this out."Having escaped the snares of this world through an accurate knowledge of the Truth, they returned to {the world}." Also, how about,"thus the true saying,"the dog has returned to its own vomit, and the sow to rolling in the mud."{Notice it says "returned to", not stayed in throughout.}How about,"For Demos has forsaken us, having loved the present system of things."These verses appear to bear out that there might be some evidence that it's possible to choose to "walk out" on your salvation. Or.. would God "force you" to remain saved?There's different answers among Christians on this.Any input on this?

I believe that we are all sinners and Father God knows this. He sacrificed his only son. His son also willingly agreed to take our sins and carried them to Calvary. Each person voluntarily accepts Jesus as Lord and Saviour and to live a righteous life. That does not mean that we are immuned from sin. We fall short, and when we repent our sins God is faithful to cleanse us with the blood of Jesus. We were saved at Calvary. People walk away from salvation and live in sin again. It is difficult to climb back to the mountain of salvation. King David backslided and God was disappointed and shut him out. David was lonely without the love of God. We read it in his psalms. But eventually, God forgave him and took him back to His kingdom. God is love and loves us. I choose to follow Jesus everyday. Even when Im backsliding I cry out allowed to God to lift me up and save me from self distruction. The journey of salvation is long and challenges but we are striving to have a face to face encounter with our Lord Jesus.

Salvation is free to everyone. You must pick it up and believe with your own heart that Jesus really saves and once saved always saved. But the soul that sinneth it shall die. So, you must choose today whom to serve. Jesus or the the world full of sin and evil. People walk away from salvation because the live a lukewarm life. They love parties and drinking and never reading Gods word or attend church. They are choosing to be out of Gods mercy and compassion. We need to fast and pray for those lost souls that roam the streets far away from Jesus. Please God, save them all we pray . Amen

No, we cannot walk out of our salvation. We were chosen from the begining of the earth to be Gods own children. He will protect us and guide us till we reach heaven.

Jesus love us with an everlasting love. He cares for us. Never ever leave Him behind.
