Secure in Christ

Virginian Colonel Byrd was condemned to death by the Cherokee Indians. In that tribe there was a chief who had been a friend to him. That chief said, “This man is my friend; before you can get at him, you must kill me.” The Cherokees let him go free. 

The believer is held safely in Christ’s hand. Before the believer could lose his salvation, Christ would have to be overcome; and that is impossible.
