C. We ourselves cannot overcome God’s will
Ephesians 2:8-9; James 2:10; 2 Timothy 1:12; Galatians 2:21; 3:10

“And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith” (Philippians 3:9).

No man is justified by the law. If we had to keep the law, or earn our way to heaven through our works, none of us would make it. We must live by faith in our Lord’s continuing intercession for us.

D. Nothing else can overcome God’s will
“For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38–39).

E. You are God’s son and an heir to His throne
John 1:12–13; Galatians 3:26

“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together” (Romans 8:16–17).

Your spirit has been born of God. You are His child and nothing can ever change that just as nothing can ever change the fact that you are the child of your earthly father

F. We have scriptural proof that we can know we have eternal life
“And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God” (1 John 5:11–13).
