Sunday Leftovers (11/11/07)

It is enough that no one can snatch a believer from the hand of Jesus Christ.

It is enough that no one can snatch a believer from the hand of God the Father.

It is enough that the Holy Spirit is given as a pledge (guarantee) of our salvation and inheritance.

Any one of those is enough to secure our salvation eternally. Yet all of these statements are true. The entire Godhead is working in unity and harmony to keep believers secure.

The Holy Spirit regenerates believers, lives in the believer, places and seals the believer into Christ's body.

The Father chose believers in the eternal past, and keeps us in eternal life.

Christ's death makes life possible, removed the wrath of God from believers, justified every believer, provided forgiveness, sanctifies the believer, is constantly interceding on behalf of the believer, and will present every believer without fault before Him.

And all that combines to make the believer in Jesus Christ secure — eternally secure.
