Lesson 17: Safety Features
When I think of the vehicles I first drove I shudder at how unsafe they were. They had no airbags to cushion a person in an accident. They had no seatbelts to keep people in the vehicle in the event of a roll over. They had no ABS breaking system is assist in slippery weather. The bumper was built like a battering ram with practically no energy-absorbing features. There were no head rests to reduce whiplash injuries, and there was no soft padding on the dashboard. Thankfully, today vehicles have all these features and more to keep us much safer on the road.
Of course life has no guarantees. Even with all the safety improvements people still die in automobile accidents. But when it comes to our spiritual life, God has given us a guarantee. If we put our trust in Jesus we will get to Heaven. He has said that he has given us eternal life and no one is able to take that away from us. The Apostle Paul testified that nothing in Heaven or Hell is able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus. It is like the old gospel song says: “He will keep you from falling, he will keep to the end. What a wonderful Saviour, what a wonderful friend.”
John 10:38
I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.
