Are we truly safe and sound in the hand of the Father? As the Scriptures say, “But I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, not any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus, Our Lord.” In this message, “Preservation of the Saints”, Dr. Alaster Begg leads us to the fact that, “it is on account of the fact that God perseveres in His love towards His own that we are enabled to persevere in our love towards Him.”
