XXXIII. WE believe all those whom God hath chosen, and who are effectually called, justified, and sanctified in Jesus Christ, can neither totally,¹ nor finally fall away from a state of Grace; but shall certainly persevere therein unto the end, and eternally be saved;² and this by virtue of their Election, or the immutable Decree of God, and the unchangeable Love of God the Father; and by virtue of their Union with Christ, together with his Death, Resurrection, and Intercession; as also from the nature of the Covenant of Grace,³ and Suretyship of Christ; and through the indwelling of the holy Spirit,⁴ who abideth in them for ever.
