======================================================================== THEY SHALL NEVER PERISH! by Thomas Brooks ======================================================================== Summary: The sermon emphasizes that salvation is solely the result of God's sovereign will and pleasure, and those given to Christ will certainly come to Him. Topics: "Assurance of Salvation", "Sovereignty Of God" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thomas Brooks emphasizes the sovereignty of God in salvation, explaining that those whom the Father has chosen will inevitably come to Christ. He highlights that God's will is the ultimate cause of salvation, and that the elect are drawn to Christ by an irresistible power. Brooks reassures believers that once they are given to Christ, they are secure in His hands and cannot be lost. The sermon underscores the assurance of eternal life for those who follow Christ, as they are protected by both the Son and the Father. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "All that the Father gives Me, will come to Me." John 6:37 "And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of all that He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day." John 6:39 The first fountain and cause of salvation, is the absolute and sovereign will and pleasure of God. Those, whose salvation the Father wills, are given over to Christ in His eternal purpose--to be brought to Him in due time. All whom are elected and given to Christ, will certainly, in due time, come to Him. Their being given to Christ from eternity, produces their coming to Him in time. The power which draws them is invincible and irresistible! "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him." John 6:44 "No one can come to Me unless the Father has enabled him." John 6:65 "My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of My Father's hand!" John 10:27-29 ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/thomas-brooks/they-shall-never-perish/ ========================================================================
