Some would say that this verse means you can be saved but if you don’t live up to God’s standards you can lose your salvation. I find this hard to believe, because it’s not what I do, but what Jesus has done for me Calvary. Once saved, always saved. Yes you can lose the joy of your salvation but not your salvation.
