I believe in eternal security in that God loves us so much that He will teach us to live Godly lives by His Holy spirit.
I admit a few folks might not seek to bear fruit of walking with the Holy spirit, but wouldn't it be easier to avoid those people?
Every one I have taken the time to talk to seek to bear fruit and do good works to glorify God.
The only difference is....do they believe they must do it or lose their salvation (Fran keeps trying to force folks to say "works are necessary for salvation") or do they do good because God first loved and forgave them and they ARE SAVED (works are a fruit of having already obtained salvation through the adoption and seal of the Holy spirit)?
