My friend believes it is possible to lose your salvation. He believes if you are in sin or sinning at the point of your death and have not had a chance to repent you will not go to heaven. Do you have any articles on this?
We cover that issue in several answers to email:
- “Can a Christian Lose His Salvation?”
 - “How Can You Say I Can’t Lose My Salvation?”
 - “Can a True Believer Commit the Unforgiveable Sin?”
 - “Is God Punishing Me Because I Committed the Unforgiveable Sin?”
 - “I Fear I Have Committed the Unforgivable Sin!”
 - “What is the ‘Sin Unto Death’?” [Jimmy Williams]
 - “What is the ‘Sin Unto Death’?” [Michael Gleghorn]
 - “How Can I Know I’m Going to Heaven?”
 - “Were Those Who Fell Away Ever Saved or Did They Lose Their Salvation?”
 - “Does Jesus’ Vine/Branches Discourse in John 15 Mean You Can Lose Your Salvation?”
 - “What About Believers Who Stop Believing in Christ?”
 
Hope you find this helpful.
