John 11:25, “Whoever believes in Me, though he die, yet shall he live.”
This is our hope that sets us apart from all others. For us, death is not the end. His saying is trustworthy, for God the Father vindicated Him by raising Him from the dead (Romans 6:4-5). It is natural to doubt your salvation; that is all the Devil tries to do to you so you may fall. Yet so long as you cling to Christ, He shall not let you go (John 10:28). God does what He says; He does not know failure. Therefore, when Christ says you will live although you will die, you will.
