Preservation and
Perseverance
-
The
elect can never finally nor totally fall away, seeing the gifts of God
are without repentance so that He nourishes in them all the graces of
the Spirit unto immortality; they are kept by the power of God unto
salvation, having been engraven upon the palms of His hands and their
names having been written in the book of life from eternity.
-
Though
they which are once engrafted into Christ shall certainly be kept by
the power of God unto salvation, yet they ought to "beware, lest being
led away with the error of the wicked they fall from their own
steadfastness." They ought to seek in prayer and in the study
of the Word, growth in grace, knowing that he who continues unto the
end shall be saved.
