The objection you make is that you can lose your salvation, and this is false. what the passage you quoted is talking about is fellowship with God. You can still be saved, but these tests are whether or not you are in fellowship with Him.
Ah, no, you need to read the verses yourself to see for yourself instead of asking your pastor. If you continue sinning, then you are not of God, but of Satan.
Just because a person may know they have eternal life now doesn't mean it'll be guaranteed that he will never lose it.
Once saved, always saved is heresy.
anyone who doesn't believe in once saved always saved thinks God is a liar.
