SALVATION
Eternal Security
John 10:28-29
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
“Jesus’ promise that no man can ‘pluck them out of my hand’ provides unshakeable security for our salvation. This
isn’t a temporary reprieve but an eternal reality secured by God’s power and faithfulness. Our salvation does not depend on our ability to hold onto God but on His commitment to hold onto us.”
Jesus personally promised eternal life to all who believe on Him through faith. Eternal life is without end; it will never cease; it is everlasting. Those who believe on God will never perish or be destroyed; they will never be spiritually lost or separated from God. (For those who choose not to accept God’s free offer of salvation, they will be given over to eternal misery in hell.) The word pluck means ‘to seize, to carry off by force.’ There is no force great enough to forcibly take the true believer from Christ’s secure hold.
God the Father is greater than all; He is the supreme ruler over everything - all creation, all enemies, all powers. ‘No man is able to pluck them out of God’s hand.’ As a believer and child of God, you are not only held by Jesus, but also by the hand of omnipotent God. John Phillips said, “There is something magnificent about the picture of the Lord wrapping His omnipotent hand around us, and of the Father wrapping His own almighty hand around His. Thus we are ensphered in Christ in God.”
This promise is given to those who hear, are known by, and who follow Jesus (vs 27). Those who continue in a relationship with God as their Shepherd have this security. Our physical bodies will deteriorate and die, that is the consequence of sin, but our soul is that part which will never die. Those who truly belong to God will be given eternal life; there is no power great enough that can snatch them from His protective hands. What an amazing promise!
