Perseverance of the Saints - Daniel Pigott (8/25/21)
Must Faith Endure for Salvation to Be Sure?
If faith is necessary to be saved in the first place, then what happens when a person stops believing? What if a person’s faith falters, fails, or is unfruitful? Will that person be lost?
Rather than the traditional Reformed doctrine of the perseverance of the saints, the Bible teaches that a person’s eternal salvation rests solely upon the Savior in keeping His own secure. While perseverance will be the result of the believer’s ongoing fellowship with the Lord and spiritual fruitfulness in service to Him, it is not a requirement to possess eternal life. Believers in Christ can be personally assured that they WILL NEVER PERISH FOREVER because their salvation rests solely upon the faithfulness and finished work of the Savior on their behalf.

Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. The last couple days have exemplified that uncertainty. On Thursday, news emerged that talks in Turkey between the Russia and Ukraine yielded no positive result. But on Friday, Reuters reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin said there had been some “positive shifts” in talks between the two sides. And while money initially moved into stocks in the morning, capital moved out of safe-haven assets.
