Eternal Security "Our eternal security is pledged by God's Providence and Promise. 'Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?' Then comes the triumphant answer, after all possible obstacles and enemies have been mentioned one by one, 'Nay, in all these things we are more than con querors, through him that loved us.* Our trials will be turned to our helps; our enemies will be taken prisoners *nd made to fight our battles. Like the weights on a clock, which keep it going, our very diffi culties will prove incentives to faith and prayer, and occasions for God’s becoming more real to us. "N o t only will we escape from those who attack us, but their very attack will become an unspeakable benefit by making us stronger for the discipline, and leaving them weaker for the defeet. We shall get out of our troubles not only deliver ance, but triumph, and in all these things be even more than conquerors through Him that loved us. "O u r security depends not upon our ^unchanging love, but upon the love of God in Christ Jesus toward us. It is not the clinging arm of the babe on the mother's breest that keeps it from falling, but the strong er arms of the mother about it, which will never let it go. He has loved us with an everlasting love; and although all else may change, yet He will never leave us nor for sake us." — A. B. Simpson. From *HU Love* by B. McCall Barbour
