The number named guy sure got one major problem trying to serve God that he would never have had serving the devil. He would never have to leave a UC church! JKJK.
Is it easy to be (and stay) saved? Or is it difficult? It seems to be harder for some than for others. Why do you suppose that is?
You love all the attention that your questions draw don't you Timmy???? Okay, I'll bite.
I tried and tried to satisfy the religiosity that I heard preached, I tried to take the responsibility for the salvation of the world, but somehow I never was quite up to the task.
Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Then I realized that I was trying to do what He has already done, so I now reject condemnation and fear, I walk in His rest. His "yoke" truly is easy, the narrow way is not hard it is easy. Jesus said so, and I believe Him, and now I can tell you from experience.
This life is not always easy, but my salvation and His rest is the easiest thing in this world. Religion is hard, ever notice who Jesus rebuked? Take a look, it was religious leaders, because they burden down the folks with junk.

I suppose that once you are saved, it should be easy to stay saved. But I was asking more about the process of getting saved in the first place. I don't think anyone would argue that it is easy for some and hard for others. For many, the biggest hurdle is probably belief.
