THE POSITION
Perseverance of the saints.
WHY THERE IS NO QUOTATIONNo quotations. A living author's work cannot be quoted at length without permission, so these positions are paraphrased from published writing rather than reproduced.
28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand.
