The Rose of God & The Eternal Security Found in Christ (Color Edition): Can a Christian, Once Saved, Lose Salvation? A Complete, Biblical, In-depth St

From the back of this Color Edition: Often Christians think of their salvation as either not secure at all-or at best, somewhat secure. Many believers cannot seem to obtain the peace and rest of Christ's finished work on the cross because they feel the need to maintain their salvation, even though they realize it has been given freely to them through Jesus.

This book is dedicated to the truth that salvation in Christ is secure, declaring emphatically that a converted believer in Jesus Christ is saved eternally and cannot be lost.

With over 40 chapters and more than 1,000 occurrences of referenced Scripture-from every book in the New Testament, as well as many from the Old Testament-this biblical study of over 450 pages covers the reality of what it means to be saved and in Christ. It shares the truth of:

• How Christians are made righteous in Jesus through His sacrifice and the new birth
• The difference between judgment and damnation
• The sin unto death
• The case of Ananias and Sapphira
• Jesus' words declaring: "I will spue thee out of my mouth"
• The servant "beaten with many stripes"

and so much more...

The Rose of God & The Eternal Security Found in Christ explains all the "difficult" Bible verses on this topic, demonstrating that the Scriptures overwhelmingly confirm the truth of God's eternal covenant in Christ.

This study also includes many of the author's Illustrations, called "BibleHearts," that encourage and lift up the heart. And as a bonus, chapter 33 is a full, chronological summation of prophetic, end-time events and how they pertain to eternal security. An end-time chart is included as well. Also, a complete, alphabetized index of all quoted Bible verses is provided, allowing for easy reference when looking up information on a specific Scripture.

By the end of this book, you will know with assurance the heart of the Lord, spoken in Jeremiah 31:3-"I have loved thee with an everlasting love."
