Amen! Perseverance is part of our sanctification; the faithful and true promise of the Holy Spirit. We really don't experience God nor Jesus Christ except by and through the Holy Spirit.
And the Holy Spirit will not fail. Christ has paid the penalty for the sins of His sheep. We have been forgiven. That knowledge motivates us to obey God and follow Christ's teachings, confident that the Holy Spirit resides and works in those who believe in Christ as their Savior, according to the will and purpose of God from before the foundation of the world.
Amen!!! Forgiven but never forsaken.
