Isn't it interesting that the church today is more then willing to except the concept of "Everlasting" when it applies to being saved, but not when it is required as evidence of being saved? John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Remember "Everlasting" equals "Forever".
