Scripture is against 'Eternal Security'.

• Jesus Christ chose Judas and He lost him out of what He chose.
• God blot out the names of the people who sinned from His book whom He had chosen for Himself as a nation of priests.

Jesus answered them, "Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?" (John 6:70).

"While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled (John 17:12).

It is extremely clear that Christ chose Judas and one of the chosen by God is lost.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever has sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book (Exod 32:33).
He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels (Rev 3:5).

It is also extremely clear that whoever had sinned or whoever had not overcome the world, their names will be blot out from the Book of Life.

And this is the promise that He hath promised us: even eternal life (1 John 2:25).

For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with Him in glory (Col 3:3-4)

Eternal Life is a promise hidden in Christ.
Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses (1 Tim 6:12)

Why should we lay hold of Eternal Life if we can't lose this promise?

He that committeth sin is of the devil, for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for His seed remaineth in him, and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. (1 John 3:8-9).

I can't find any exception to above verse.. If someone says he believes yet sin, he is of the devil. Anyone who believes in Christ puts on Christ.

John 3:16; "Whoever believes the Son..."
You must always take the definition according to Scriptures.

Who believes the Son?

Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? (1 John 5:5)

What is faith in Jesus Christ?

And after some days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was a Jew, he sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ. And as Paul reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the Judgment to come, Felix trembled and answered, "Go thy way for this time. When I have a convenient occasion I will call for thee." (Acts 24:24-25)

You can see that scripture clearly defines what "Faith in Jesus Christ" and "Believing in the Son" means. Now, apply this definition wherever "Faith in Jesus Christ" and "Believing in the Son" comes...

Eternal Security is a false doctrine to justify our sins, which can only come from the devil.

For if we sin willfully after having received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. He that despised Moses' law died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath accounted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath despised the Spirit of grace? (Hebrews 10:26-29)

I can't see anywhere in the whole scripture suggesting "Eternal Security".
