Everybody who believes is in the vine.
The scary part is the doctrine that says you know for sure if you are saved by if you endure all the way to the end (the argument being that if you fail along the way you were never really in the vine to begin with).
That means you can never know in this life if you are truly born again.
You can only know if you are truly born again when you get to the end.
But good for us, the bible explains that you can know if you truly believe by if the Christ child is being reproduced in you.
That is a blasphemous LIE.

[SUP]
21 [/SUP] Dear friends, if our conscience doesn’t condemn ⌊us⌋, we have confidence before God
