The glorious thing about the Gospel is this. If I can do nothing to merit, earn, or deserve my salvation, then I can certainly do nothing to lose it. Our righteousness before God is determined only by the finished work of Christ that God accepted as perfect. So with Paul we simply “declare at this time, His righteousness: that He might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.” (Romans 3:26) My righteousness condemns me and His righteousness saves me. If God looks only at Christ’s righteousness to save me, then He cannot and will not ever look to my righteousness to keep me. In Christ I am forever saved. ~David E
