[Footnote 4:  In the context, this refers to people that the Father "drew" to
                Jesus  while  He  was  physically  on  EARTH  (an  important  distinction  to
                remember when refuting calvinism; compare John 6:37a,44, Mark 1:16-20,
                and  Luke  5:27-28,  and  contrast  with  John  12:32),  but  the  devotional

                application is obvious, since you "come to" Jesus in prayer to ask Him to
                save you.
                (1 Peter 2:4)]

                John  10:28  "And  I  give  unto  them  eternal  life;  and  they  shall  never
                perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand."                 5

                [Footnote 5:  Ditto the context of footnote 4 (John 10:26), but this verse is

                stronger,  since  the  same  "eternal life"  is  promised  to  anyone,  even  after
                Jesus' ascension.]

                Romans 5:11b "...we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by
                whom we have now received the atonement."

                1  Corinthians  1:7-9  "...our  Lord  Jesus  Christ...shall  also  confirm  you

                unto  the  end,  that  ye  may  be  blameless  in  the  day  of  our  Lord  Jesus
                Christ.
                God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son
                Jesus Christ our Lord."

                Ephesians 1:13-14 "In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word
                of  truth,  the  gospel  of  your  salvation:  in  whom  also  after  that  ye
                believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the

                earnest  of  our  inheritance  until  the  redemption  of  the  purchased
                possession, unto the praise of his glory."

                Ephesians 4:30b "...the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the
                day of redemption."

                Eternal security is emphasized well by contrast with the Old Testament:


                Hebrews  7:22  "By  so  much  was  Jesus  made  a  surety  of  a  better
                testament.
