Dude we have been here so many times I have lost count
you have not showed me any scripture which changes my view.
again, if you claim you are chosen but the person next to you is not chosen, thus left to die with no hope of ever coming to truth
you claim you are special,
you do not like it, don’t take it out on me, change your view. It gives god a bad name!

Could not be saved as in "was not saved" just to be clear what @eternally-gratefull is stating.
And yes he stated twice,

He means was not saved.
And yes you did state this quite clear about @Lightskin several times.
You even stated you would bring him to true repentance wanting to meet him sometime.
That means you deny his salvation.
You can ignore me but others are not... and the truth is the truth!!

Here is what I adhere to:
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Paul, writing to believers is warning them to not be deceived, he is warning professing believers to not be deceived, and is warning them. I do the same, I will never teach anyone it is OK, like some on here do.

John15:16
You did not choose me,but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit-fruit that will last.
Then the Father will give you what ever you ask in my name.
This is my command:Love each other.
Read all of John 15.
The vine and the branches.....this scripture really speaks to my heart.

Hmm ....
According to the Oxford Dictionary, effort is an attempt to do something. When we use ''effort'' it implies that we are trying to accomplish a task or solve a problem.
.... so, it is not you that is thinking of believing so therefore it is not your mind or your effort ... I am confused. Who is doing the believing?
Re: we cannot force ourselves to believe something we know is untrue .... AMEN, and since you were a slave to Satan and No One Seeks God .... God changed your disposition by giving you a new heart and so now you freely want to trust him
John 6:29 Jesus replied, “The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent.”
Well someone is doing the WORK ... and this verse says God is doing the work to believe ... and we are not saved by works... so, sounds like an open and shut case.
I have him on IGNORE. When I first came on here I read 3 of his posts. He was .... hmmm ... not the most pleasant personality. I will let @preacher4truth stick handle his input if he is so inclined.

"Traps" is a word to make you feel better for it suggests a trick and therefore makes you feel better about your position. I only offer logic and scripture the best I can IMO.
