Christ Did Not Die in Vain “And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.” (John 6:39)
Although many in hearing the Message of the Cross pass by in unbelief, yet we have this confidence, that the LORD will have every sinner for whom He shed His blood. The fact is that He did not die for every single sinner. He said, “...of all which He (the Father) hath given me I should lose nothing...”
There is a number which no man can number, who shall, by His Almighty Grace, be brought to look to Him as the blessed Redeemer and cling to Him
as the Hope of their souls because He purchased them, putting away their sin and justifying them when He died for them, “After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands...” (Revelation 7:9)
Isaiah declared, “He shall see of the travail of His soul and be satisfied...” (Isaiah. 53:11) He will, in the day of His power, make them willing to believe the LORD Jesus in Truth as ALL their salvation, Psalm 110:3. They may now be hardened in sin but He will break their hearts, bend their knees and make them run to Christ according to HIS good pleasure! Salvation is of our LORD in the planning, procuring and performing of it, “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ...” (Philippians 1:6)
Salvation, from beginning to end, is the work of God’s Grace, Christ Jesus alone. So complete was the finished work of the LORD Jesus that none can perish for whom He paid their sin debt at Calvary. None were justified until He came and earned and established their righteousness to the satisfaction of God the Father. Therefore, once satisfaction was made, “...there is therefore now, NO CONDEMNATION…” (Romans 8:1)
Hebrews 9:12 states, “…having obtained eternal redemption for us..." Once obtained, satisfaction was made and there and then God the Father, once for all, imputed righteousness to the Spiritual account of all that He had chosen out from eternity and for eternity. Eternal redemption means forever and as Christ Jesus declared in John 10:28-30, “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.”
