All believers are secure in Christ forever. God's
grace and power, not the self-effort of man, maintains
salvation.
John 10:27-29
27 “My sheep hear My
voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; 28 and
I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish;
and no one will snatch them out of My hand. 29 “My
Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all;
and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's
hand.
Romans 8:29-39
29 For those whom He
foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the
image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn
among many brethren; 30 and
these whom He predestined, He also called; and these
whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He
justified, He also glorified. 31
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for
us, who is against us? 32 He
who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over
for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us
all things? 33 Who will
bring a charge against God's elect? God is the one who
justifies; 34 who is the
one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes,
rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God,
who also intercedes for us. 35 Who
will separate us from the love of Christ? Will
tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or
nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 Just
as it is written, “FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO
DEATH ALL DAY LONG; WE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE
SLAUGHTERED.” 37 But in
all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him
who loved us. 38 For I am
convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor things present, nor things to come,
nor powers, 39 nor
height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be
able to separate us from the love of God, which is in
Christ Jesus our Lord.
Hebrews 7:25
25 Therefore He is
able also to save forever those who draw near to God
through Him, since He always lives to make intercession
for them.
I Peter 1:3-5
3 Blessed be the God
and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to
His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a
living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ
from the dead, 4 to
obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and
undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for
you, 5 who are protected
by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready
to be revealed in the last time.
I John 5:9-13
9 If we receive the
testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for
the testimony of God is this, that He has testified
concerning His Son. 10 The
one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in
himself; the one who does not believe God has made Him a
liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that
God has given concerning His Son. 11 And
the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal
life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He
who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the
Son of God does not have the life. This Is Written That
You May Know 13 These
things I have written to you who believe in the name of
the Son of God, so that you may know that you have
eternal life.
