So when David asked God for forgiveness, and repented of His sin, he then still had to make a sacrifice, at the Temple, and only thereby was atonement made for his sin, as was prescribed by God. This could be done over and over, but we are under a better covenant, whereby Christ died "ONCE" for all sin. Heb 9:12-14 12) Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. 13) For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: 14) How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? Hi Daniel

The answer you gave to Lawrence while sounding good on the surface, doesn’t quite work when you take into account, David was not saved, but under the LAW.

Heb 9:12-14
12) Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
13) For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
14) How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

If we fall, we repent as at first and follow the more fully. Remember King David? He sinned in horrible ways, but was restored to fellowship because he heartily repented (Psalm 51).

I have taken the liberty to quote you above to ask: Is there a possibility that such who have fallen could be restored back to life in Christ again? -Lawrence. “9) If at any point a Christian commits a willful sin, they no longer have eternal life abiding in them (1Joh 3:15) and have become a child of the devil (1Joh 3:10)”.
