How do we know that God preserves us forever?

Answered in 1 source

Psalm 37:28 states, 'They are preserved forever,' affirming the eternal security of God's saints.

The assurance of being preserved forever comes from several scriptures, most notably Psalm 37:28, which articulates, 'For the Lord loveth judgment and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved forever.' This verse assures us of God's unwavering commitment to His people, emphasizing His justice and mercy. We are not preserved by our own strength or faithfulness but by the sovereign power of God who ensures our eternal security.

In addition, 1 Peter 1:5 reinforces this truth by saying believers are 'kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation.' This underscores that it is God's power, not human effort, that secures our salvation permanently. Jude 1 further adds that we are 'preserved in Jesus Christ,' confirming that our preservation is intrinsically linked to Christ Himself. Thus, our confidence in eternal security is rooted in the unchangeable character of God and His promises that extend beyond this life.
