Slide 1: 

The Doctrine of Continuance: by Mitchell S. Metzger A Necessity for Salvation

Slide 2: 

The following passages of Scripture, in their plan and obvious meaning, command, describe, or imply the NECESSITY of happy continuance in the love of God as a condition of attaining final salvation.

Slide 3: 

Matthew 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Slide 4: 

John 8:31-32 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Slide 5: 

John 8:51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

Slide 6: 

John 11:26* * Present tenses denoting a continuous believing or partaking of Christ. And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Slide 7: 

John 15:9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

Slide 8: 

Acts 13:43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

Slide 9: 

Acts 14:22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

Slide 10: 

1 Corinthians 16:13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

Slide 11: 

Hebrews 3:6 Hebrews has over 52 verses alone! But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.

Slide 12: 

Hebrews 3:19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

Slide 13: 

Hebrews 4:14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

Slide 14: 

Hebrews 6:1, 6 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,…If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

Slide 15: 

Hebrews 6:11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:

Slide 16: 

Hebrews 6:15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

Slide 17: 

So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Hebrews 9:28

Slide 18: 

Hebrews 10:38-39 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

Slide 19: 

1 Peter 4:2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

Slide 20: 

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. Revelation 2:10

Slide 21: 

Colossians 1:21-23 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away…

Slide 22: 

As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Colossians 2:6-7

Slide 23: 

1 Timothy 4:16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

Slide 24: 

John 3:16*, 36* * Present tenses denoting a continuous believing or partaking of Christ. “…whosoever believeth in him…”

Slide 25: 

Romans 11:22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

Slide 28: 

Luke 21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

Slide 29: 

1 Corinthians 15:1-2 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

Slide 30:
