The Certainty of God's Promise
Here after dealing with the above text not talking about losing your salvation, but stating if you do lose it you can't get if back. We look at another piece of the puzzle to eternal security. The idea of perseverance of the saints that God will finish what He starts.
It is His nature to complete what He starts well. So if your salvation wasn't completed it would be better to assume that God never started it, than to think He couldn't keep you from falling away. That is just a wrong view of God. You have to have a extra biblical view of free will to believe this. Apart from God our will is not free, but bound. That is why we need the liberation that only He can provide.
Promise, confirmation, and guarantee
two unchangeable things
We who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.
We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul
A hope that enters into the inter place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone on our behalf
(God is saying here, I want you to have confidence in my salvation for you)(It is what the text say not my opinion or bias)
