Believing with Confidence

Our society worships many gods, resists the idea of “one way” to salvation, and increasingly disputes that Jesus is God. Using John 17 as the foundation, Jill examines some of the basic tenets of our faith, including salvation, being chosen, and the question of whether we can be lost once we are saved. When we understand and apply these truths to our lives, we can live in confidence and share our beliefs with power and enthusiasm.

Jesus’ promise to “keep” His followers is pictured through the strong prison term “keep,” meaning to guard securely like Paul and Silas in the inner cell—held so tightly that only God could release them.
John 17 teaches that believers are not only chosen but also kept, and Jesus prays for their protection as they remain in a hostile world.
Jesus teaches that being chosen by God is a profound gift, and John 17 highlights this through repeated phrases about those the Father has given to the Son.
In John 17, Jesus teaches that eternal life is knowing God and Christ. And Jill illustrates this through tender conversations with children who ask honest questions about death and heaven.
