Dear Sparkman:
Yes, one is not saved if they willingly condone evil (Whether it be a little bit of evil or a lot of evil). For if you do evil, you are evil. It's not a new concept. It's basic morality. You should like already know that. Good guys do good and bad guys do bad.

This is what I'm working from. Very plain language. And, as I posted, many believers did commit sin. Their overall lifestyle was not characterized by sin, but they did sin.
Explain to me how each of these individuals were believers yet sinned underneath your theology:
· Abraham lied and showed a lack of faith when he said Sarai was his sister rather than wife (Genesis 12)
· Noah got drunk after the Flood (Genesis 9)
· David committed adultery with Bathsheba and had her husband killed (2 Samuel 11)
· Samson had sex with a prostitute (Judges 16:1)
· Peter denied Christ three times, and committed the sin of favoritism (Matt 26, Gal 2:11-13)
· The Corinthian man was involved in sexual activity with his stepmother (I Corinthians 5)
· The Corinthian congregation committed sin in ignoring the activity between the man and his wife (I Corinthians 5)
