fear God's discipline, but don't fear Him disowning you.
God does not make mistakes in His foreknowledge and sovereign election.
If we sin, our Father will discipline His child. Fear the discipline of the Lord, because He is active in this world, and will surely chasten those He loves.
Salvation is not at stake, but your life is certainly on the line!
If a person is unrepentant, then they are displaying their lack of faith, meaning they do not have the Holy Spirit, meaning they never truly believed.

Or they are backslidden and in willful sin and should expect chastisement of the Lord and possibly the loss of rewards and or their own life....I will concede that if they can live a lifestyle of unrepentant sin without being whipped or killed by God then they are illegitimate and were never saved to begin with.
