As the elect, we have the assurance that God justifies and secures our salvation through His power.
The assurance for the elect of God is grounded in the truth that our justification and salvation are based on God's covenant promises rather than our works. Romans 8:33-34 speaks to this, declaring that it is God who justifies, and highlights the intercessory role of Christ, which guarantees our security. The doctrine teaches that those whom God calls are also those whom He justifies and glorifies, affirming that our salvation is complete and secure in Him. Additionally, passages such as 1 Peter 1:4 emphasize our inheritance that is kept by God's power, reminding us that our ultimate hope is not in our efforts but in God's unchanging faithfulness.
