Many say they are saved. Doesn't the Bible say the one who endures to the end will be saved? Then no one is saved yet.?

The 1st questions answer is yes.
The 2nd questions answer is no. Some are already saved as the time of the harvest is the time of the beginning of the resurrection of Jesus appointed brothers

A relatively few people read, study and believe the Bible, so they come up with that stupid "I'm SAVED" statement.

That means if you don't fall away into atheism before you die.This is the short answer. Because He won't force you to go to Heaven if you don't want to.

One need never have read one word in any Bible to receive God's Free, and Eternal. Gift of Salvation....Only God decrees who becomes a part of The Body of The True Church He commissioned.... and Only those who come to God in The Way He prescribes will be made a part of The True Church.... . and once God grants Salvation is it a done deal....
God has granted me my place in Heaven.... no Earthly act can cause anyone to "lose" their Salvation....God will NEVER take back that which He has promised......
I have God's Word on that........ Personally..... I need no book to reassure me.....

Any one who Repents of their sins to Jesus in prayer, acknowledges and accepts that Jesus is the son of God who died on the cross for their sins and rose from the dead on the third day and invites Him into their heart and life and surrendering total control of their life over to Jesus is born again and saved. They are saved by the grace of God through their faith in Jesus and in the blood He shed for them on the cross that covered their sins.
Now what can happen when a person goes through the motions of obtaining salvation that can result in them not being saved is that they did not receive the Holy Ghost. That they did not surrender their control of their life over to Jesus. If they went through all that God requires of us to obtain salvation and they did not actually feel God lifting you up from the inside where you feel as if you are floating as you are walking, then you never did receive the Holy Ghost and are not saved. God knows your heart and knows if you are sincere in your quest for salvation. If you are trying to obtain salvation simply to avoid going to hell, and not because you truly have faith in the blood of Jesus washing your sins away, you did not get saved. This prayer required of us must be said vocally before a witness according to God's word. If He said confess by mouth, there must be an ear to hear this prayer.... Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
God tells us that not every one who calls upon the name of the Lord enters into the kingdom of heaven.... Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
You must do God's will which is surrender control of your life and invite Jesus into your heart and life, Repent of your sins and acknowledge that Jesus is the son of God who died on the cross for your sins and rose from the dead on the third day. This must be a sincere act from your heart. You must truly believe... Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost..Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved... Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. (that door is your heart's door.)... 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

Saved for what?
The human soul is totally imaginary - a 100 000 years ago invention of cavemen, who hated the
notion of not continuing on after their bodies had given out on them.
I can forgive people believing such nonsense back in those profoundly ignorant times.
It is outrageously stupid though, for people in the 21st century, to be talking about heaven and hell
as though they actually exist. They are ***imaginary*** places.
Have some intelligence and courage. Stop thinking like a cavemen.

The saved endure
its not like those who know God are suddenly going to say "Oh to hell with this"
We are in a vibrant loving relationship with God...who is going to give that up
Is it possible to give it up, yes
Probable? Not in a million years
Does a tree pull up its roots and wander away from its life source?
Through the trials and tribulations and desires and cares of this world.....the false Christian...the one who has given mental assent, but no their lives and being can fall away.....but again those are not Christians

And what do you need to be saved from? Sin? Did you buy into that lie? Geez.....
Sin is an imaginary disease, invented to sell you an imaginary cure... And the imaginary cure, ---TADA--- is RELIGION!!!!!!!!!.
This just goes to show that religion is both barbaric and a lying scam.
No civilized person today, or ever, holds the descendents of someone accused of something to be culpable. Just because your dad shot someone, doesn’t mean that YOU pay the penalty.
Even if the Adam and Eve myth were true, it cannot apply to ANYONE currently alive today, for the obvious reason that no one currently alive was alive and present when Adam and Eve were sinning. Looking at this this way, it’s pretty silly, isn’t it????
The whole doctrine of 'sin' is based on a really barbaric idea.
Sin doesn’t exist today, ether.
It is an imaginary idea to keep control of you.
There are stupid acts that will get you jail time, or a fine, or have your honey leave you but sin?

it also says the earth is flat, donkeys can talk, and slavery and genocide are just fine.
isn't it about time you put the moronic fairy tales away and faced the real world for once?
