Saved by his life
Question of eternal security
One of the most fundamental questions asked by a Christians is “can I lose my salvation”. The question of eternal security is one of the most fundamental of all to those who have trusted in Christ for their salvation.
How can a person know and understand that they are saved and that salvation is, from the moment of the new birth, until we are with the Lord in heaven, secured? Paul, from chapter verse 6 through to the end of chapter 5 goes into exquisite and clear detail as to how what we have come to believe concerning Christ is secure.
Verses such as Romans 5:6-8 demonstrate the purpose of the death of Jesus Christ
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:6-8
Verses 9-10 then providing that declarative truth concerning the precious value of our state through his life.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
Romans 5:9-10
From verse 11 through to the end of the Chapter Paul presents a wonderful historical understanding of what Jesus did and how it all makes perfect sense.
I pray the sermon is a blessing to you.
