Every believer in Christ has at
one time thought about the security of their salvation. The Bible
says that Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. Meaning it
was Jesus who originated salvation and He is the one that will
complete it as well. This allows you to be secure in your
deliverance because the process of salvation is solely the work of
Jesus. No one is going to pluck you out of God's hand because it's
God who is holding you, not the other way around. So when you
struggle and fail with the negative elements of life, God won't give
up on you; instead, He will deal with you as a wayward child whom He
will discipline. This life on earth is like a race and you need to
run it with patience. It is easy to be overwhelmed by sin and you
need to remember that Jesus endured the cross, despised the shame,
and He is now set down at the right hand of the throne of God. Jesus
finished the race; therefore, run the race and keep your eyes on
Jesus and you will you make it to the end. |
