John 18:7-9


Christ tells His accusers to let the disciples go, for He is the one that they seek, and the disciples are released. We are reminded here that Christ will never lose one of His people to Satan. His redeeming work on the cross has secured our salvation, so that we may never lose it. If you have ever worried that you will lose your salvation because of the sins you have committed, there is hope. Our salvation does not rest on ourselves; it rests upon Christ. His work on the cross and in the Resurrection was final, and there is no way that we can mess that up. We can have full assurance that, by believing in Christ, we are saved. We should not worry about our screw ups, but enjoy the Christian life that Christ has provided for us.
