Perseverance of the Saints<br />

Saints (those whom God has saved) who are justified will remain in God's grace until they are<br />

sanctified and glorified and brought to abide with him in heaven. (Romans 8:28-39) . The<br />

work of sanctification which God has started in his elect will continue until it reaches its<br />

fulfillment in eternal life (Phil. 1:6). Christ assures the elect that he will not lose them and that<br />

they will be glorified at the "last day" (John 6:39).<br />
