I don't know someone's spiritual state only god knows.
If you are asking is it possible that someone can lose their faith and not their salvation my answer is yes, but as I said earlier, it depends on how you define "faith"

Originally posted by FMFYour faith was either real or it wasn't. So which was it?
My faith was most certainly genuine in the sense that it was sincere and very real to me at the time. But, as you know, I do not now hold the claims that Christians make about Jesus and about a 'revealed god' to be true. And, as you also know, I accept you at your word when you say that, currently, your faith is sincere and very real to you; indeed, I can empathize fully.
