“My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.”
—John 10:29
If you asked many Christians if they knew beyond a shadow of doubt they would go to heaven when they die, they would admit they weren’t sure. And yet God wants us to be sure—and we can be, once we understand what Jesus Christ did for us.

The problem is that down inside many of us still feel our salvation must be up to us, and we can go to heaven only if we are good enough. But how do you know when you are good enough? The answer is—you don’t. And that’s why many Christians lack assurance of their salvation.

The key is to understand that Christ took away all our sins—not part of them, but all of them. No matter how good we are, we can’t save ourselves—because God’s standard is perfection. But Christ—who was without sin—did for us what we could never do for ourselves: He took all our sins upon Himself, and He took the death and hell we deserve. Depend solely on Christ for your salvation. He paid the price—and now you owe nothing!
Wisdom for Today

We are so grateful, Father, that our salvation doesn’t depend on our righteousness or ability to be good enough. It’s all because of Jesus. The work He has done can’t be undone, and our places in heaven are secure.
