Yep pretty much

your right, its not

If I have eternal life. and Gods promise I will never perish.

then I will live forever (spiritually) and never perish (spiritually.

a man given this promise from God cannot die spiritually

but they can commit a sin unto death (physical)

Sorry, what I meant is what was described in the post I responded to is not spiritual death, but the scripture is.

After being born again of the Spirit we cannot commit a sin unto death, 1 John 3:9.

You believe in eternal security, perseverance of the saints, once saved always saved?

No. There are too many warnings like Romans 6:15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not! 16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

We still have free will. Also, we can commit apostasy and completely renounce Christ.

But in saying that, I am secure in my salvation and know He is pleased with me. For the last 48 years I have received an answer to 100% of my prayers because He taught me to wait on Him to reveal His will before I pray. I just pray what He speaks to me.

It is important to do everything you can to purposefully abide in Christ so that He will abide in us. This is how he knows us. I was worried about my oldest friend so I got her to watch The Chosen. And now she wants to read the Word. We both watch the series over and over. I notice that when I wake up my mind is already on things of the Lord, so I know He is in me.
