"Able to Keep"

From: Messages of God's Love: 1938

I heard the Gospel many a time before that night on which God saved me, but that night I heard that Christ was able to keep as well as to save. That was what I needed. So I trusted Him and have learned that His power can save and keep me.

I hastened home and told of my conversion, and next day it was rumored I had gone mad. But it is blessed madness to know one is saved, and on the way to glory.

Reader, are you going there? “Reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Phil. 3:13, 14¹³Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, ¹⁴I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 3:13‑14).
