The Bible tells us that the Lord “keeps” those who are His. What then are we to think if an individual has professed to be a Christian but later falls into grievous sin? In this survey of scriptures on the perseverance of the believer, we see that God’s Word does not sidestep difficult questions but addresses them very practically. It is God Who keeps. Our part is to believe and to use the means of perseverance He has provided.
