It is written,
Hebrews 6:1-6 (NLT)
4 For it is impossible to bring back to repentance those who were once enlightened—those who have experienced the good things of heaven and shared in the Holy Spirit, 5 who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the power of the age to come— 6 and who then turn away from God. It is impossible to bring such people back to repentance; by rejecting the Son of God, they themselves are nailing him to the cross once again and holding him up to public shame. It is impossible to bring a reprobate back to repentance. Therefore, if one sees the error of their ways and repents... it proves they are not reprobate.
There is a fine line that one can cross. Once crossed, God will cease to draw the individual. You'll discover the call to repentance falls on deaf ears and is essentially mocked and disregarded altogether. Why? God is no longer drawing. We can only come as He draws us. And if God still drawing... that line hasn't been crossed.

Re: I ask you to accept me
praying for John...and for all of us....I have been laughed at a lot of times for being kind but that is ok...For some reason I remembered this morning rubbing a "dying" lady down with water...she wanted to be baptized but could not due to the shape her body was in...she asked me to do it and I did...I actually told her we have no proof that God would accept something like that but I did what she asked and prayed for her....the end of the story to the amazement of doctors she was raised up and we actually got to baptize her...
There are stories in the Bible of people it seemed were past God's line...yet He forgave and they followed....people that made HUGE mistakes...that no doubt I would have harshly judged...yet God saw and sees the heart...so time tells a lot of stories....we humans are often fools....we run our mouths too much....

glad she was able to be baptized.
I do a nursing home ministry and we had a lady that wanted to be baptized in Jesus name. She was large and not able to walk at all. We took her to a church that had a fairly accessible baptismal tank. Still very difficult to lift her in and out of the tank with 4 men. During the whole thing we were still rejoicing. I would rather see someone Baptized in Jesus Name and die in the process than live another 15 years without being baptized.
Glad God made a way.

You can cherry pick verses to agree with this statement, but you cannot construct a theology from the entirety of Scripture that says this. This is a false statement.
