The doctrine of perseverance in the New Testament is often misapplied and misinterpreted. While the doctrine has been met with hostility and fear by some, to others it's simply confusing or irrelevant to real life. What does the Bible really say about perseverance? Thomas Schreiner looks at the New Testament's collective exhortations and warnings to persevere. As he addresses misunderstandings and difficult passages, a fuller picture of perseverance emerges and we see that there is great assurance and joy for believers who hold to the truths of this precious doctrine. "Tom Schreiner has done a masterful job of charting a course through rich biblical teaching....Here readers will encounter both the joy of knowing that God will not fail to save those whom he has elected and brought to true saving faith, while at the same time they will face squarely the necessity of persevering faith, love, and good deeds that mark those truly saved through Christ and his Spirit. Here is biblical balance and, more important, biblical fidelity. All who long to understand better the nature of Christian faith and good works will benefit greatly from this lucid and biblical treatment." Bruce A. Ware, Professor of Christian Theology, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
