If you died on your deathbed and did not have time to lose your salvation will you go to heaven? What about the people who live long after salvation?

If they were TRULY saved, then yes, they would go to Heaven.

Truly is the word here.

Can other people many years later, as true as the people on their death beads but had time to live go to heaven too?

This is a really STRANGE question from a Christian. For those who are truly saved, there is no uncertainty one way or another.

Since even christians think if they can stay saved those that think they they lose their salvation what do we say to the unbelievers? This is only good for so long... As soon as speak, think, do a sin it's gone.... Which sin makes you lost how long do you have to sin to need to get saved again? Never understood when do you get unsaved?

Only Jesus can tell if you are save. sometimes people who say they are already saved are mostly arrogant and unrepentant evil doers.

It is a form of humility not to exalt yourself.

but if you want to know if God has not abandoned you, then you must assess if you still have guilty feeling whenever you did wrong; if not then that's it.

It is true that if sin could rob us of salvation, a sin Jesus Christ paid for with His own blood, then it would be best to come to faith in Christ and then immediately die. It is good, however, that God is faithful to His covenant, and the blood of Christ cleanses us of all sin, of all unrighteousness. We are justified our entire lives, for we have a High Priest with a priesthood that lasts forever, and He is the eternal sacrifice for our sins. The last sacrifice. Which is why we can preach the Gospel to the unsaved and not sacrifice an animal for their sins, because Jesus is their sacrifice too (propitiation for the sins of the world).

Salvation is by grace through faith. Sinless perfectionism is not the means to our salvation, for then it would be a striving work and a wage due. Rather, God has imputed Jesus' righteousness to us and has justified us. His blood has granted us the remission of our sins (all of them, any one that you may commit). Why? As it says in 1 John 2, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. It is through Christ and Him crucified that we are saved. No condemnation for those that are in Jesus Christ.

God's Word already has stated we are saved as believers...

1 John 5:11-13 NKJV
[11] And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. [12] He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. [13] These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

Who says You can lose your salvation...You just never had it.

Think you need to read Romans 1 a little deeper.....In essence, for those that know of Him and have rejected His word, will HE give them over to themselves. NOT GOOD!

THERE is no second chance!

After salvation? Has someone told you there is an expiry date?

You lose your salvation the opposite way you recieve it. By making Jesus the Lord of your life.

If you receive salvation then you cannot lose it....

John 6:39,,"And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day."
