The "lost" are those who have yet to hear the word of truth, the gospel of their salvation. The "damned" are also lost, but they are lost in a different way and to a much greater degree. They are religious zealots who think they are saved not by Christ but their own works of righteousness; they have cognizantly rejected Christ. These are those to whom the strongest warnings are given.

This theology of yours is showing itself to be even more sinister than it first appeared.  Now the saved are those who are lost, because they repented and made Christ their Lord, because that makes them the religious hypocrites.  This seems to be the stuff of true heresy. Izzy
