The Bible Teaches Eternal Security!
By David J. Stewart
John 10:28, "And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand."
The Bible plainly teaches the Eternal Security of the Believer. If saved, always
saved. You don't get better to get saved, you get saved to get better. You can't
get better until you do get saved. You don't have anything to get better with.
If Christians who sin are not saved, then Jesus Christ is the biggest liar who ever lived. Jesus is not a liar. Jesus plainly stated in John 14:2, “if it were not so, I would have told you.” Jesus said what He meant, and meant what He said. Titus 1:2, “In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began.” Amen! Eternal life is a PROMISE from God to those who believe on His Son, Jesus.
Just as the physical birth is irreversible, so also is the spiritual birth. Everybody needs to be saved. Jesus promised in John 10:28 that believers will NEVER PERISH. John 6:37, “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.” You can be a disciple and not be saved, like Judas (Luke 6:13-16). Jesus called Judas a devil (John 6:70).
If you are a parent, your child didn't make a commitment to become your child; but rather, they were born to become your child. Likewise, we are born-again to become God's child. Just as a child has absolutely NOTHING to do with his or her own birth, neither does the Christian have anything to do with their spiritual birth. It is completely of God. Our part is done the moment we believe, receiving Jesus as the Christ, the Son of God. John 1:12, “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.”
If you don't believe the Bible, you
can either get right or die wrong.
