Lie still, and let Him mould thee!
Oh, Lord, I would obey;
Be Thou the skillful Potter,
And I the yielding clay.
Oh, Lord, I would obey;
Be Thou the skillful Potter,
And I the yielding clay.
Bend me, oh, bend me to Thy will,
While in Thy hand I’m lying still.
While in Thy hand I’m lying still.

In Thy dear hand I’m resting,
Oh, hold me quiet there;
Then soften me and mould me,
And for Thy will prepare.
Oh, hold me quiet there;
Then soften me and mould me,
And for Thy will prepare.

I need not fear to trust Thee,
Thy love and skill are such,
New lessons Thou wilt teach me,
While yielding to Thy touch.
Thy love and skill are such,
New lessons Thou wilt teach me,
While yielding to Thy touch.

Impress Thine image on me,
Fulfil Thy blest design,
Till others see upon me
That beauteous face of Thine.
Fulfil Thy blest design,
Till others see upon me
That beauteous face of Thine.

THE PROMISES OF GOD
Besides the nine points covered already, there is still another point. Of the nine points that have been covered, none can be overthrown by you, or even by God. No method or way can overthrow them. Once a person is saved through God’s grace, no longer can anyone cast him away. But the Lord Jesus considered this as not good enough; He was concerned that we would doubt His work. For this reason, He gave us promises to purposely show us that we will not be lost. We all remember John 10 . This portion of the Scripture shows us clearly what our destiny hinges on. Our destiny does not hinge on ourselves; rather, it hinges on the Lord Jesus and the Father.
John 10:28-30 says, “And I give to them eternal life, and they shall by no means perish forever, and no one shall snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all, and no one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand. I and the Father are one. ” The word of the Lord here cannot be clearer: “And I give to them eternal life, and they shall by no means perish forever. ” These words alone are adequate. Here the Lord speaks in such a solemn and definite way that we shall “by no means perish forever. ” It is just like saying that we shall not be cast away forever, as mentioned earlier. It is also like saying that we will not come into judgment, but have passed out of death into life, as mentioned in John 5:24 . These are all absolute words: “And I give to them eternal life, and they shall by no means perish forever. ” God is an eternal God. Those who do not know God do not know what God has done. If a man knows God, he knows that whatever God does is eternal. God does not ever do anything temporary. God never changes from one time to the next. What God has done is done once for all. God will not change after two days. Once God has done something, it is done forever. God will not save you today and cast you into hell tomorrow. He will not save you again the following day and cast you into hell again the day after that. If that were the case, the book of life would not look very nice; there would be deletions and corrections here and there. God is eternal. What He gives to us is eternal life. That is why we can never perish. We need to see that whatever God does is eternal. God will never change after a while. Man can change at will, but God cannot change at will. Once He saves us, we are saved eternally; never again could we be in danger of perishing.
The Gospel of God
Chapter 16 (LSM) CWWN, vol. 29
C. The Eternal Life, the Son’s Hand,
and the Father’s Hand for the
Security of the Sheep
In 10:28-29 the Lord says, “And I give to them eternal life, and they shall by no means perish forever, and no one shall snatch them out of My hand. My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all, and no one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand. ” The eternal life is for the believers’ living. Both the Son’s hand as the hand of power and the Father’s hand as the hand of love are for the believers’ protection. Eternal life shall never run out, and the hands of the Son and the Father shall never fail. So the believers are eternally secured and shall never perish.
When I first began to work in this country, many dear saints asked me if I believed in eternal security. I always answered, “Why not? ” After a while everyone knew that I do believe in the wonderful, eternal security. As long as we have eternal life, we have eternal security. What can be more secure than eternal life? I have the real insurance policy in my spirit. Not only do I have eternal life, but I have two hands—the Son’s hand of power and the Father’s hand of love. These two hands embrace me, and Satan is unable to snatch me out. I am eternally secured by the divine life and by these two divine hands. Praise the Lord! These hands are always on the alert, and no one can kidnap us. Therefore, we shall never perish. We have a divine living and an almighty protection. Thus, we, the sheep, are secured forever. Do not argue doctrinally about eternal security. We enjoy the fact. Do you have eternal security? I do not ask whether you believe in eternal security but whether you have it. Regardless of whether or not we believe in the doctrine of eternal security, we are eternally secured.
