The main answer would bethat Jesus would say nothing on this because no such person exists.
Being saved by definition is just that: BEING SAVED FROM SINS IN THE LIFE, AND NOT HAVING TO GO INTO SECOND DEATH.
A PERSON WHO GOES TO HELL FOR ETERNITY CANNOT BE SAID TO BE SAVED.
Those who suggest such an idea, do not properly understand salvation as described in the bible.
Jesus left no doubt on this; jn6:
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Those who resist the teaching of the Grace of God have no peace about this.
I do not speak for all who are known as Calvinists, but I am in the mainstream of the teaching as held by Confessional churches. Some have made personal attacks along that line, but it is clear they are misinformed.
