Yes, and that is because of poor parenting and lousy preaching in church buildings and not seeing me preach on the street with my bull horn.
Half of us so-called believers who think we're going to be with Christ, will still not get there. That's from The Parable of The Wise and Foolish Virgins waiting for the bridegroom in Matthew 25:1-12. 5 virgins were wise and 5 were foolish. You see as a believer in Jesus Christ, you are His bride. Yeah, that's kind of hard to say when you are a guy, but it's a spiritual sense of togetherness. The marriage hasn't happened yet, so spiritually we are considered virgins. When we all get to be with our Lord, there's a big marriage feast. But half of us so-called believers won't be ready and prepared to meet Christ at the last day, when He comes to take us to the wedding. That's because half of us so-called believers don't have the Holy Spirit (the Helper) inside our spirit.
See then that you walk circumspectly (be careful in the way that you live), not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is (have the knowledge of those things which pertain to salvation). And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation (excess, prodigality i.e. the Prodigal Son); but be filled with the Spirit (Ephesians 5:15-18).
The foolish half extinguish, quench, or suppress the Holy Spirit of His divine influence (lamps are going out) (Matthew 25:8). As born again Christians, we don't have the license to sin. They have a misunderstanding belief in Jesus Christ. The truth is that He is our Master (Luke 8:24, 17:13, & 2 Tim. 2:21) which means we are His slaves doing what He says (Romans 6:16-22). Even demons believe that there is one God (James 2:19), so just believing that God exists doesn't cut it. Even demons say Jesus Christ is the Son of God (Luke 4:41 & 8:28), so saying that doesn't cut it either.
Jesus Christ says to so-called believers, "I know your works (well, He doesn't know them personally with a real relationship though, He just knows about their doings), that you are neither cold nor hot... So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of my mouth." (Revelation 3:15,16) ~ And after God shuts the door to eternal life, the foolish ones without the Holy Spirit, who won't be ready, will say, "Lord, Lord, open to us." But He's going to answer and say, "Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you." (Matt. 25:11,12)
You see, my friends, we need a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ in order to go to heaven. That's by receiving His Spirit into our lives which makes us born again and set free from the bondage of sin. ~ Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven." (Matt. 7:21) ~ Doing the will of the Father is living a holy, godly life by obeying Him.
Jesus said, "For many are called, but few are chosen." (Matt. 22:14) ~ He's talking about the ones who will actually be in the wedding. The word called also means invited by God in the proclamation of the Gospel to obtain eternal salvation in the kingdom through Christ. So you are called by God because you are seeing this proclamation of the Gospel. But are you chosen? And even if you are chosen or elect (it's the same Greek word), you can still be deceived (Matthew 24:24). The word deceive also means to cause to stray, lead aside from the right way, to sever or fall away from the truth, to be led away into error and sin. This is more proof that a real Christian can lose their salvation and wind up in hell. Again, we have no license to sin.
