Eternal Security
Once a person experiences the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit (John 3:5,6; Titus 3:5-7), we believe the new believer is saved for all eternity (John 3:16,36; 10:27-30). Salvation and the eternal security of the true believer are based upon the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. (1 Pet. 1:18-21) Eternal security does not mean that Christians won’t struggle at times in their spiritual walk (Rom. 7:18-25), but rather, “He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.” (Phil. 1:6 NKJV). Eternal life and the eternal security of the believer that comes with it begins immediately at the moment of salvation and continues throughout all eternity. (John 3:36; 5:24; 6:40, 47; 17:3; 1 John 5:11-13)
