Who Can be Saved?? All, Anyone, Everyone, Who so ever Calls on the Name of the Lord!!
1 Tim. 2:3-4
". . . God our Savior, who desires ""all ""men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth."
 
Yes!!! God does draw all to Him as HE is unwilling that any perish But you are free to reject God's love=your choice!!
Yes!! Men have free will unto salvation===choose to believe=====For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. Romans 10:10
Romans 10:9
that if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10:11
It is just as the Scripture says: ""Everyone"" who believes in Him will not be put to shame
Jn. 3:16
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that ""whoever"" believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."
Rom. 10:10, 13
"For with the heart one believes to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation." "For '""whoever"" calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Acts 2:21, 
"And it shall come to pass that ""whoever"" calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."

What concerns me is the false doctrine of easy believism. This is a damnable doctrine that will send many professing "Christians" to the Lake of Fire. Easy believism is tantamount to living in habitual sin without repentance. Our Lord said, "Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you will seek to enter in, and shall not be able." (Lk.13:24). The word strive in the Greek is "agonizomai" which is where we get the word agony or struggle, as in a race. The Christian life is not fun and games, it is a life filled with hardships, trials, and challenges; however it is only God Himself who is able to get you through this because we can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth us. (Phil.4:13). In John 15, Jesus says that He is the vine and we are His branches, and that every branch that beareth fruit, He purges it so that it may beging forth more fruit. The pruning process is not to be discouraged, it is so that we can mature and be conformed to the image of Christ. Moreover, Jesus said in the day of judgment, many will be rejected by Jesus because He never knew them, and they were workers of iniquity. (Matt.7:21-23). Several years back I visited a church called the "The Abyssinian church", and the Pastor would asked the congregation who would like to be saved and inherit eternal life? Several people raised their hands, and the preacher said, "Do you believe that Jesus is Lord and want to be saved? The "Pastor" then said, "can't nobody can tell you to go to hell!" Really? Just uttering those words, "I want to be saved" isn't enough. It is the "heart" belief and absolute trust in Jesus as Lord, with repentance that we are saved. I found it interesting that the church had the word "abyss" in it. Interesting...Because strait is the gate and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it (Matt. 7:14). There are over 4,000 religions in this world, and only one faith can save us, and that is Christianity. Jesus Christ is both the way and the gate (cf. Jn.14:6), all others are from the pits of hell, and are doctrines of devils (1 Tim.4:1). That verse in Timothy literally means doctrines taught by devils. Anyone can be saved if you play your cards right according to scripture alone. But there is always a danger of damnable heresies handed down through traditions and false teachers who disseminate these false doctrines. The book of Revelation 22:17 ends with an invitation to ALL: "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And WHOSOEVER will, let him take the water of life freely."And the Spirit and the bride say come, is the Bride of Christ and the Holy Spirit wanting Jesus to return (cf. Rev.22:12; 22:20). The disciples asked Jesus, "Who then can be saved?", Jesus replied, "With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible." (Matt.19:25,26).
