"Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you that which is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ; to Whom be glory for ever and ever. A-men." Hebrews 13:20-21
"And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is He that calleth you, Who also will do it." 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
When you see verses like these two, you can see that it’s not at all impossible to live as one who is saved to the uttermost, sanctified wholly, perfect in every good work, and well pleasing to God. It’s not even hard to have the faith that we can never stumble and live in perfection. Look at what God says, it’s not us doing it; it’s Him doing it within us. The Blood of Jesus makes us perfect in every good work, and God is faithful to preserve us blameless, He will do it! I don’t think any believer stumbles at believing God can do anything, we stumble when we think that we have to do it, but praise God it’s not up to us, it’s up to Him, and He is faithful to do what He has said.
