According to Baptists, are Christians who have experienced the manifestation of a spiritual gift through the Holy Spirit guaranteed to see God?

Many Christians experience the manifestation of the Holy Spirit through spiritual gifts such as prophecy, tongues, healing, or teaching (cf. 1 Corinthians 12).
My question is: If a believer has clearly received and exercised a gift of the Holy Spirit, does this mean they are assured of inheriting eternal life? Or is it still possible for someone to fall away despite having once been used by the Spirit in this way (cf. Matthew 7:21–23, Hebrews 6:4–6)?
I am seeking answers from a Christian theological perspective, preferably with biblical support.
