Romans 8:31-39: ”God is For Us”

"When the Christian looks to himself he finds only occasion for trembling or rather for despair, but having been called into the fellowship of Christ, he out, in so far as assurance of salvation is concerned, to think of himself no otherwise that as a member of Christ, so to reckon all Christ's benefits his own. Thus he will obtain an unwavering hope of final perseverance if he reckons himself a member of Him who is beyond all hazard of falling away."                                            John Calvin
