I listed up the verses that prove OSAS is unbliblical:
Revelation 3:5
He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels.
Revelation 2:5 (New International Version)
5Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lamp stand from its place.
Revelation 2:16 (New International Version)
16Repent therefore! Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
Revelation 2:20-25 (New International Version)
20Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols. 21I have given her time to repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling. 22So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. 23I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds. 24Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan's so-called deep secrets (I will not impose any other burden on you): 25Only hold on to what you have until I come.
Revelation 3
To the Church in Sardis
1"To the angel[a] of the church in Sardis write:
These are the words of him who holds the seven spiritsof God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. 2Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your deeds complete in the sight of my God. 3Remember, [b]therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you.
Revelation 3:5
He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels.
2 Peter 1:10 (New International Version)
10Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall,

I would like to see how the apostle Peter sees that.
2Peter 1:
3. According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4. Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5. And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6. And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7. And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
As we can understand from Peter's inspired words , there is a "way" to salvation ,
a "way" of "growing up" in the qualities presented in the verses 5,6,7.
He who gives up regarding this "growing up" will never reach the result : tha salvation that means the entrance in the Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ :
Do you remember that Scripture says if you love the world, the love of the Father is not in him? We have to get rid of all our worldly desires to live for Him: that's what He is saying. If we love Jesus, we just live for Him by serving Him in all aspects of our lives.
1 John 2:15
[ Do Not Love the World ] Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
Matthew 24:13, "but he who did endure to the end, he shall be saved."
(YLT)
John 15:1,2 I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the farmer. 2Every branch in me not bearing fruit, he removes it.
Matthew 28:20 (New International Version)
20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
1 Timothy 4:16, "Give heed to thyself and to the teaching; continue in them; for, doing this, thou shalt save both thyself and those that hear thee." (Darby)
James 5:19-20, "My brethren, if any of you err from the truth, and one convert him: 20He must know that he who causeth a sinner to be converted from the error of his way, shall save his soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins." (DRC)
Hebrews 10:26-27 For where we sin wilfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains any sacrifice for sins, 27but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and heat of fire about to devour the adversaries. (Darby)
Heb 4:11 Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, that no man fall after the same example of disobedience."
1 Corinthians 9:27, "but I chastise my body, and bring it into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others--I myself may become disapproved." (YLT) _________________ YHWH is my God and Jesus is my Lord
