How do advocates of *Eternal Security* explain the phenomenon of life-long Christians leaving the faith? Here is a playlist of testimonies from former pastors: [YouTube Playlist](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLV9jojlG6VGunKZTBb8TmHfvg4ZPIjkXi) For example: - [Testimony of a former pastor after 30 years in ministry](https://youtu.be/e73jIl-bWuk) - [Testimony of a former pastor after 25 years in ministry](https://youtu.be/9Q3VXwcNxcA) - [Testimony of a former pastor after 20 years in ministry](https://youtu.be/2_A0ilgwg38) - [Dan Barker describes going from preacher to atheist and how nature designed the world, not God](https://youtu.be/YQMascSVBDg) Additionally, consider this [answer on Christianity StackExchange](https://christianity.stackexchange.com/a/108512/117426) , where an ex-Christian explains: > You generally can't get a good answer to this question from people who > haven't been through the process. > > I think the core reason for most of us is that we realized the > Christian narrative is simply mythology, and cannot possibly be true. > > And yes, I have PLENTY of good hard evidence to back that up. > > Bring hurt by people in the church? A secondary reason, but often just > an eye opener to start questioning the narrative. > > **Never a real Christian? Not a reason for most. Most of us who lose our** > **faith were among the very most dedicated Christians imaginable. Our** > **Christian experiences were just like yours if not more so. We led** > **worship, preached, served as missionaries, wept before Jesus, spoke in** > **tongues, gave our all, believed with our whole hearts, all of it.** > > Wanting to go sin? Not a reason for virtually anyone. > > We just loved the truth, and could no longer keep lying to ourselves > that the Christian narrative was the truth.
