Faithful is he that calleth you who also will do it 1st Thessalonians chapter 5 verse 24

Heaven is a place where we shall never sin, where we shall cease our constant watch against an indefatigable enemy, because there will be no tempter to ensnare our feet. There the wicked cease from troubling, and the weary are at rest. Heaven is the undefiled inheritance. It is the land of perfect holiness, and therefore of complete security.

But do not the saints even on earth sometimes taste the joys of blissful security? The doctrine of God's word is that all who are in union with the Lamb are safe. That all the righteous shall hold on their way. That those who have committed their souls to the keeping of Christ shall find him a faithful and immutable preserver. Sustained by such a doctrine, we can enjoy security even on earth. Not that high and glorious security which renders us free from every slip but that holy security which arises from the sure promise of Jesus that none who believe in him shall ever perish but shall be with him where he is.

Believer, let us often reflect with joy on the doctrine of the perseverance of the saints and honor the faithfulness of our God by a holy confidence in him. May our God bring home to you a sense of your safety in Christ Jesus. May he assure you that your name is graven on his hand and whisper in your ear the promise, fear not, I am with thee.

Look upon him, the great surety of the covenant, as faithful and true, and therefore bound and engaged to present you, the weakest of the family, with all the chosen race, before the throne of God. And in such a sweet contemplation, You will drink the juice of the spiced wine of the Lord's pomegranate and taste the dainty fruits of paradise. You will have an antipast of the enjoyments which ravish the souls of the perfect saints above if you can believe with unstaggering faith that faithful is he that calleth you who also will do it. you
