How do we know God's grace preserves us?

The doctrine of preservation is rooted in the understanding that it is God who initiates and sustains faith in the lives of believers. Jude 24-25 underscores this truth, emphasizing that He who began a good work will carry it on to completion. The believer’s perseverance is assured because it is not contingent upon personal effort but on God's faithful and sustaining grace. This divine preservation guarantees that while believers may stumble, they will not fall away from grace permanently, as God ensures their ultimate safety and spiritual victory.
