Answered in 1 source
We can trust in God's preservation of His people because His promises are unchanging and His word is perfectly reliable.
God’s promise to preserve His people is evidenced through His unwavering faithfulness as described in Psalm 12:7, where it states, 'Thou shalt keep them, O Lord.' This reflects the assurance that God will not abandon His people even when they face moral and spiritual decay around them. The Bible shows us that God's word is tried and true; it is akin to silver purified seven times, without fault. This assurance means that believers can confidently rely on God's promises, knowing His intentions are for their good and for His glory. The narrative of Scripture consistently points to God’s faithfulness to His covenant people, demonstrating that He preserves those whom He has elected.
