That is why Jesus, Paul, and
other NT writers keep telling us to persevere», yet Jude 1 tells us we are preserved in Jesus Christ and then in verse 24» Now
unto him that is able to keep you from
falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy».
Al - Maeda sura 05: In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful Forbidden
unto you (for food) are carrion and blood and swine - flesh, and that which hath been dedicated
unto any
other than Allah, and the strangled, and the dead through beating, and the dead through
falling from a height, and that which hath been killed by (the goring of) horns, and the devoured of wild beasts, saving that which ye make lawful (by the death - stroke), and that which hath been immolated
unto idols.
