The person still has to be open to the move of God. We are not automatons.
Again if it were automatic James would not have had to write those letters.
God can chastise and some will harden themselves against the workings of God. we each have our own unique personality, and God deals with each person individually and circumstances vary and so I refuse to make blanket assertions that are not in scripture.

So now your going to twist james words..
lol again.
can a person believe in Jesus yet not have faith in him and still be saved.
look at the audience.
In Romans, Why did paul say we are saved by faith alone, and no work.. who was his audience?
In james, appearing to contradict paul. He said if a perosn CLAIMS to have faith. But has no work. Can THAT FAITH save them.
Who was his audience.
I will give you a hint, Paul was speaking to one group of false teachers. And james was speaking to the opposite group..
what differed?

The Bible actually teaches that it is possible for one who is eternally saved by God’s grace to:
1) Commit idolatry and apostasy (1 Kgs. 11:1-10)
2) Believe only for a while (Luke 8:13)
3) Not continue in the Word of Christ (Jn. 8:31)
4) Not abide in Christ (John 15:1-8)
5) Become disqualified in the race of the Christian life (1 Cor. 9:24-27)
6) Resist God’s chastening and correcting to the point of physical death (1 Cor. 11:30-32)
7) Stray from the faith (1 Timothy 1:5-6)
8) Shipwreck faith (1 Timothy 1:18-20)
9) Fall away from the faith (1 Timothy 4:1-3)
10) Deny the faith (1 Timothy 5:8)
11) Cast off initial faith and follow Satan (1 Timothy 5:12-15)
12) Stray from the faith by loving money (1 Timothy 6:9-10)
13) Stray from the faith by professing false doctrine (1 Timothy 6:20-21)
14) Deny Christ and be faithless (2 Timothy 2:11-13)
