Michele, there are some places in Scripture that would seem to teach what you are saying, yet the whole tenor of Scripture is that one is "freely justified by his grace. " Now, the evidence of being saved is that one no longer wants to sin nor sees salvation as a license to sin, but there is remaining corruption in the best of us - see Romans 7, please.

I think that the word may and might says a lot about salvation. Jesus came that we "may or might" eneter into His rest. Seems salvation is a condition on not willfully sinning
