1PETER 1:9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16.
Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace
that should come unto you:
Searching what, or what manner of timeTthe Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify,
when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things,
which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with The Holy Ghost
sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the Grace
that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
As Obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
But as He which hath called you is Holy, so be ye Holy in all manner of conversation;
Because it is written, Be you Holy; for I Am Holy.

A sign of salvation is a newly created spirit that will never die creating a new heart or desire as the kind of will that is free do the will the will of another.(our father in heaven) It is the kind of food the disciples knew not of. The daily bread of His will .. it creates a contrite heart making our hard heart soft.

In my opinion, the sign of salvation is that you recognize you're a sinner, that you accept Jesus as your Saviour, you repent your sins, ask for forgivness and believe you've recieved it, and also it is that you try to live in such a way that others could see Christ through you.
As for sinning, everyone sins. Even the saved. But in my humble point of view, the sign of salvation is the way you act after you sinned. I think that when you are saved, and you sin and recognize you have sinned, your first respond is to go down on your knees, HONESTLY repent your sin, ask God for forgiveness and His help, and believe, that the blood of Christ is powerfull enough to cover your sin.
I'm not saying that we are allowed to sin, and as long as we believe, we're saved. NOT AT ALL. I am trying to say that when you are saved, God is changing your heart. And that change reflects in your behaviour.
But this is my opinion. If I am wrong, correct me.

If Paul's faith did not save him, then he was confused when he wrote Ephesians 2:8,9. We are Spirit baptized (and not water baptized) into the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12:13). You are confusing the picture with the reality. The washing away of sin by the blood of Christ is signified, yet not procured in the waters of baptism. We are forced to give this interpretation by the context. Before mentioning baptism in chapter 6, Paul had repeatedly emphasized that faith, not water baptism is the instrumental cause of salvation/justification (Romans 1:16, 3:22-30; 4:4-6, 13; 5:1). That is when the old man was put to death and united in the likeness of His death, which water baptism symbolizes and pictures.
As Greek Scholar A.T. Robertson explains: As in Romans 6:4-6 where baptism is the picture of death, burial and resurrection, so here baptism pictures the change that had already taken place when Paul surrendered to Jesus on the way. Baptism here pictures the washing away of sins by the blood of Christ.
Again, water baptism is the picture, but not the reality. We are saved when we obey the gospel and we obey the gospel by choosing to believe the gospel (Romans 1:16; 10:16).
Romans 10:16 - But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?" Refusing to believe the gospel by trusting in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ as the ALL-sufficient means of your salvation is refusing to obey the gospel. The gospel is NOT "water baptized or condemned." That is a "different" gospel.
Spirit baptism (not water baptism) is how we get into the body of Christ when we believe the gospel. Where does the Bible say "come back out" of the body of Christ? Ephesians 1:13 - In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory. Believers are sealed unto/for the day of redemption (Ephesians 4:30).
In regards to Hebrews 10:26, To "sin willfully" in the Greek carries the idea of deliberate intention that is habitual, which stems from rejecting Christ deliberately. This is CONTINUOUS ACTION - A MATTER OF PRACTICE. Now we don't walk along our daily life and "accidentally" fall into a pit called sin. We exercise our will but, the use of the participle clearly shows a CONTINUOUS ACTION. The unrighteous practice sin - (1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Galatians 5:19-21); not the righteous, who are born of God - (1 Corinthians 6:11; 1 John 3:9). OSAS (when properly understood) is not a false doctrine. Hebrews 10:39 - But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul. Those who draw back to perdition do not believe to the saving of the soul and those who believe to the saving of the soul do not draw back to perdition. So there is no loss of salvation here. Only a failure to receive it.
1 John 3:9 - No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. So much for believers committing any sin they want. Show me where the Bible specifically says "lose salvation." It sounds to me like you have been thoroughly indoctrinated into church of Christ (Campbellism) theology.

The wage is the same... eternal damnation never to rise to new spirit life ever again. To violate the least is to be found guilty of the whole law........eternal damnation never to rise to new spirit life ever again.
Jam 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

It would have been easy for God not to expose the sin of his people in the word. Make them all look like super Christians.
I think he shared their sins to us for a reason. For our benefit.. It gives us all hope They they were screw ups just like we are. Yes Gods grace love and mercy still prevailed. and they ended up doing mighty works for God inspite of their sin,

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
