Must Faith Endure for Salvation to Be Sure? by Tom Stegall
Many Christians readily acknowledge that faith in Jesus Christ is necessary for eternal salvation. But if faith is necessary to be saved, what happens when a person stops believing? What if faith falters, fails, or remains unfruitful? Will that person be lost?
Must Faith Endure for Salvation to Be Sure? demonstrates that Scripture teaches that all who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ alone, rather than their own good works, will be kept eternally secure by God’s grace and power.
Contrary to the traditional Reformed doctrine of perseverance of the saints, the Bible teaches that a person’s eternal salvation rests solely upon the perseverance of the Savior, not of the saint. While there is a place for personal perseverance in faith, believers in Christ can be sure that they will never perish forever because their salvation rests solely upon the faithfulness and finished work of the Savior on their behalf.
