Through taking this view, there is no question to one's salvation as it depends not on our own actions or deeds but solely on Gods saving grace. Those who ahold to this view, take this to mean once saved and apart of the body of Christ there is absolutely no way to lose their salvation. Neither action, nor deed can separate a believer from God's redeeming grace and ultimate salvation. However, this view also holds this; if one does abandon the faith and turn away from God, then they were never actually apart of the body of Christ and were indeed never ultimately guaranteed salvation through Christ. .
With this intact under the "eternal security view" the debate revolves around three main themes. The first theme is God's will, which focuses on the belief that those who are in the body of Christ will be saved, and on the last day be raised up and glorified with Christ. The eternal security view gives reference to a handful of verses, one such verse is as follows, "None of those who are drawn by the Father and given to Christ can fail to be raised up on the last day" (John 6:35-44). According to one who holds to this view, this verse gives an obvious answer in regards to eternal security. .
The next theme under speculation concerning eternal security is God's power. God's unwavering character and unlimited power is not in question here. However, the Christian's individual impact on salvation is. The eternal security view makes it clear that we as mere humans have absolutely no power in this matter. It is solely on Christ. One's "continual salvation is rooted in who He is not in who they are" (p. 186). This is seen throughout the Bible, as both Old and New Testament outline eternal security with respect to God's power. In Psalms, David proclaimed, "Our steps are made firm by the lord" and even "though we stumble, we shall not fall head long, for the lord holds us by hand" (Ps 37:23-24).
