Jesus has not only borne the punishment of all your sins, past, present, and to come, worked out for you a perfect righteousness, clothed in which you may stand spotless before God, sent His Spirit to change your heart, and given you the power by faith to lay hold of His hand; but He has also prayed for you, that you may never be allowed to let go your hold. It would be very incomplete without this. "I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not." Here is your security. Christ's prayer must be answered, for "the Father heareth him always." So a believer in Christ is Christ's for ever.
Samuel Minton — Samuel Minton, The Believer's Completeness in Christ: A Sermon (London: Seeley, Jackson, and Halliday, [1850]), pp. 7–8
