About this listen

The Canons of Dort remind us that perseverance is not grounded in our spiritual strength, but in Christ’s preserving power. When some depart from the faith, John does not tell believers to look inward for hidden signs or elite knowledge. Instead, he directs us outward—to Christ, who continues his priestly work by interceding for his people. True assurance does not come from the quality of our faith, but from the faithfulness of our Savior, who prays that our faith will not fail
