Job 19:25 – 25 “As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last He will take His stand on the earth.
Job clearly, in the Holy Spirits enabling, had a grasp of the glorious truth of our eternal security in Christ as Paul recorded in Col 2:9- 10; 1:22-23***:
Job 19:25 “…my Redeemer lives,…..He will take His stand…” ——

God’s justifying love & grace – Ex 23:7; Deut 25:1; 1 Sam 2:9(1-9); Pro 17:15; Lu 7:29; Roms 4:5-7*** justification “is the removal of condemnation. That is the essence of justification….justification has reference not to my state, but to my standing.” (Martin Lloyd Jones)
***Hebs 9:24-28(27)***
Notice, we, the chosen, beloved of God in Ephs 1:3-6 (I Ptr 1:3-5; I Ptr 1:6a; II Ptr 1:1-4; Roms 8:28-30,31), “…have been made complete” in our blessed, precious, resurrected, living Lord Jesus Christ (notice this is the past tense, unchangeable, fixed & finished loving act of our Sovereign Triune Heavenly Father)! Our Lord’s rebuke of Peter in Jn 21:22 clearly reveals the one life we each, as His chosen ones (Ephs 1:3-6; Col 2:9-10; 1:22-23), are responsible for in His kingdom service here in these earthen vessels is ours, & ours alone — II Cor 4:7-11 (Ps 139: 16; 118:24; Acts 17:26; Jer 29:11-13,4-7,8-9; Roms 8) Ezkl 18; Mk 4:26; Roms 12:1-2,9-13,14-21; Titus 3:1-9***.
