But also, logic tells me this is true.

You, I believe, would admit that it is possible to think you are saved, but still go to Hell. What the Bible calls, "illegitimate children." Likewise, it is possible to think you don't believe, but do. I don't believe that is a far stretch from your doctrinal stance, and definitely from experience or the Bible.

I, as always, openly admit, my understanding is human and always feeble. I am no scholar, of the Bible, much less. I just rely on Him in my weaknesses.
