22:3

3 And I, again, Pionius, wrote it out from the former writings, after searching for it, because the blessed Polycarp showed it me in a vision, as I will explain in what follows, and I gathered it together when it was almost worn out by age, that the Lord Jesus Christ may also gather me together with his elect into his heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory with the Father and the Holy Spirit, for ever and ever, Amen.

1 Clement 65:2

I. Now To Him Who is Able

A. To keep (to keep or watch out for, keeping guard) you from stumbling

john 17

John 17:15

2 Thess

1 Pet 1

I read a book in college called Responsible Grace it was about the practical theology of John Wesley, I didnt agree with everything in the book, but i hijacked the phrase because I think it highlights how God keeps us in his grace.

we are responsible to “remain in His love” and yet at the same time God keeps us from stumbling, how?

The disciplines we are to develop to remain in his love, through the power of the Spirit, are means of grace God uses to keep us from falling.

And now all glory to him who alone is God,

Who saves us through his Son,

For he is able to keep us from falling away.

With love and joy.

All power, authority, all splendor,

And majesty are his from the beginning

And evermore and evermore.

You alone are God.

Jesus Christ our Lord.

From falling away.

You bring us into Your presence

With love and joy.
