Christ further says, "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him
that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out" (John 6:37). And then He goes
on to show that He came to do the will of His Father, and that will was that
of all which He had given Him, He should lose nothing, but should raise it
up again at the last day (verses 38 -39). A case has never been more thor-
oughly and undeniably proven than that of the preservation and security of
the saints. It is a great comfort to those who are blest to see it and embrace
it, and it gives wonderful motivation for all their efforts to serve the Lord.
As Paul expressed it, "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of
God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto
God, which is your reasonable service." (Romans 12:1)
