Perseverance
I'm listening to the messages from Stand: A Call for the Endurance of the Saints, so I'm sure I'll have more to state on this topic. However, in my sermon preparation, I ran across this brief, yet crystal clear quote:
Or consider Jesus Christ's words:
Election predestines to faith and therewith to obedience.
--TDNT, p145, "τηρων"
Or consider Jesus Christ's words:
I have manifested Your name to the men whom You gave Me out of the world; they were Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.
--John 17:6

Or the words of Paul:
"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them" (Eph. 2:10).

crystal clear?
Maybe it's just my simplicity which leaves me somewhat confused, but I honestly don't find that quote 'crystal clear' as it stands alone.
