The broader question of whether salvation can be ‘lost’ will be debated until He returns, but I suspect it might be something like the people who did the miracles in Jesus’ name, and He told them to amscray…that He never knew them.

A parrot can say the Sinner’s Prayer (and, never having fallen, can be assured of Heaven), but if we say it and don’t live it…do we really have salvation?

Certainly we’ll all be sinners while we’re here, but I think the key may be in eternal vigilance, at least trying to stop the sin before it comes up and hating its presence in our lives, not reveling in it while thinking of the “Christians Aren’t Perfect – Just Forgiven” bumpersticker.

Yeah, I debated about even using this quote because I agree with you that “disqualifies” is probably not the right word here. I’m glad we don’t lose our salvation over that or else we’d all be out. 🙂 I’m assuming that’s not fully what he meant by it, but nonetheless, it could use some clarifying.
