The Surety of the

of God’s People

The Lord visits every one of His people sometime between their

conception and their death and imparts unto them His divine Spirit.

Hence He says of them, "All that the Father giveth me shall come to

me." (Joh 6:37) He knows they will ultimately occupy heaven be-

cause it is His unalterable purpose to "quicken" them (give them

spiritual life) in His own time (Eph 2:1,5) and that therefore none of

them will be eternally lost but will all be raised up at the last day.

(Joh 6:37-39) Not only will He do this because He has the power to

do it, but He will do it because He has promised to do it. (Titus 1:2)

Neither does He have any problem finding them because the very

foundation of God standeth sure having this seal "The Lord knoweth

them that are His." (2 Ti 2:19)

How good it is to know that the population of heaven does not stand

upon the flimsy footing of the scripturally unauthorized efforts of

so-called soul savers, but on the power and faithfulness of a sover-

eign and merciful God! To teach or to believe otherwise is to greatly

dishonor God and to misrepresent His teachings on the manner in

which His people are saved.
