Jesus Christ's Promises to Saints
(From Forerunner Commentary)
|
John 6:38-40 (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)
The "I" in these three verses is very emphatic! To show this emphasis, some translations read, "I Myself." He personally promises to follow through, fulfilling the Father's will, and to guard and preserve those given Him to the very end! He is virtually ensuring a calling that cannot be revoked, a foundation that cannot be shaken in any way, a seal or promise that cannot be broken, and a life that cannot perish! He practically guarantees the salvation of the saints! This is God's promise through Jesus Christ to "everyone who sees the Son."

Romans 15:8 (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)
In bringing a new message'the gospel'Jesus came to confirm the promises made to the fathers. But who were the fathers? And what are the promises made to them? Heaven? Purgatory? Your salvation depends on the answer! You read in Acts 3:13, in the inspired words of Peter: "The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus." The fathers, then, were Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. If you are Christ's'if you are a Christian'you are an heir to inherit'not what men might devise in their imaginations'you are an heir according to the promise! If you're an heir, you are going to inherit something. If you're an heir according to the promise, you are going to inherit whatever was promised'and not something else.
Herbert W. Armstrong (1892-1986)
