Depends on the work of God the Holy Spirit within the believer. The doctrine of eternal security depends upon God’s integrity, not ours. We did nothing to earn our salvation and we can’t do anything to lose it. It is His decision and work in us.

Eph 2:8-10
(8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
(9) Not of works, lest any man should boast.
(10) For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
