I am His by purchase and I am His by conquest; I am His by donation and I am His by election; I am His by covenant and I am His by marriage; I am wholly His; I am peculiarly His; I am universally His; I am eternally His.
— Thomas Brooks
Eternal Security
When God calls a man, He does not repent of it. God does not, as many friends do, love one day, and hate another; or as princes, who make their subjects favorites, and afterwards throw them into prison. This is the blessedness of a saint; his condition admits of no alteration. God’s call is founded upon His decree, and His decree is immutable. Acts of grace cannot be reversed. God blots out His people’s sins, but not their names.
— Thomas Watson
Eternal Security
One of the outstanding glories of the gospel is its promise of eternal security to all who truly believe it. The gospel presents no third-rate Physician who is competent to treat only the milder cases, but One who … is capable of curing the most desperate cases.

Eternal Security
God’s decree is the very pillar and basis on which the saint’s perseverance depends. That decree ties the knot of adoption so fast, that neither sin, death, nor hell, can break it asunder.

Eternal Security
Though Christians be not kept altogether from falling, yet they are kept from falling altogether.
