How do we know that perseverance in faith is true for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible assures that God works to keep His people in faith, evidenced by His promises and the presence of the Holy Spirit.

The doctrine of perseverance in faith is rooted in God's sovereign work in the lives of His people. Philippians 2:13 teaches us that it is God who works in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure, indicating that our continued faith is a result of His ongoing presence and influence in our lives. Furthermore, the assurance provided in Romans 8:29 emphasizes that those whom God predestined will be conformed to the image of His Son, underscoring the certainty of divine preservation. This reinforces that true believers will endure to the end, keeping their faith amidst trials and temptations.
