The Perverted Gospel!

John 3:36
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him

It says you have eternal life....if you have eternal life you can't lose it...or...if you could lose it you never had eternal life.
It this context eternal life is grace and you can lose grace!

Example:

Galatians 5:4
Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

We are in a state of grace

Romans 5:2
By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

No guarantee we will remain in a state of grace

Romans 8:1
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

No guarantee we will remain in Christ and its f we walk according to the flesh we won’t!

25“I already told you,” Jesus replied, “but you did not believe. The works I do in My Father’s name testify on My behalf. 26But because you are not My sheep, you refuse to believe. 27My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. 28I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand. 29My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand. 30I and the Father are one.”

31At this, the Jews again picked up stones to stone Him. 32But Jesus responded, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone Me?”

33“We are not stoning You for any good work,” said the Jews, “but for blasphemy, because You, who are a man, declare Yourself to be God.”

I am un-snatchable.

Were you ever in Jesus' hands?

Yes no outside force can do so but you can reject Christ and grace and salvation!

2 Timothy 2:12
If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
 
Yes no outside force can do so but you can reject Christ and grace and salvation!
No one can snatch you...also means you. Basically, if someone told you a lie about Jesus and you believed them then denied Christ...then it would be them through their lie that snached you. But, the bible tells us we can't be snatched. Sheeze, you should find great joy in that message.

Is reigning with Him synonymous with salvation?

No one can snatch you...also means you. Basically, if someone told you a lie about Jesus and you believed them then denied Christ...then it would be them through their lie that snached you. But, the bible tells us we can't be snatched. Sheeze, you should find great joy in that message.

No problem t don’t, you have free will and though we were redeemed by Christ we cannot be justified or sanctified or purified or glorified without our free will participation

If it’s automatic and perpetual justification then explain why a Christian must do the following?

And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

I didn't look up each of your verses but perhaps it demonstrates your faith and salvation.
it would be like a person trained to be an electrician...but if you don't wire up a light or outlet are you really an electrician?
Perhaps in name only.

111. For every salutary act internal supernatural grace of God (gratia elevans) is absolutely necessary.
So ask we must ask as Christ said


113. Without the special help of God the justified cannot persevere to the end in justification.
So watch and pray, ask for God’s help and grace

114. The justified person is not able for his whole life long to avoid all sins, even venial sins,
without the special privilege of the grace of God

Prayer is required see the lords prayer

Is this for day to day living or does it only apply to salvation?
 
Both since you must preserve to the end to be saved! Mk 13:13 matt 24:13
But the one who endures to the end will be saved....endures what? The end of what? Is saved from what?

Keep in mind the context is the tribulation. Please don't simply snip the verse...explain it in the proper context explained in the verses prior to it as well as after it.

Suffering Phil 1:29
Life of course

Sorry I believe all scripture is the “inspired word of God” (Christian cannon) even one word!
2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

And words of Christ are eternal!
Even one word!
Matthew 24:35
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
