Doctrinal Introduction: Perseverance of the Saints Jonathan and James have a chat about the doctrine of the perseverance of the saints. The Christian race isn’t always easy, which sometimes may cause us to wonder whether we’ll finish well. What assurance do we have that our running is not in vain and that we’ll finish the course? What’s the role of grace in the perseverance of the saints, and is there any work to be done on our part?  Our hosts review a few of God’s promises in this regard and the purposeful tension that exists between those promises and God’s commands.    Show Notes  ·  Canons of Dort heading 5 ·  2 Corinthians 4:7 ·  John 6 ·  Philippians 2:13
