This verse doesn't support eternal security at all. There are many who think they are a "good Christian" and will go to heaven, simply based on their moral lifestyle. Look at Matt 7:21-23 and their appeal to Jesus for entering the kingdom: their works. What they DID. Nothing about believing what Jesus DID for them.The Bible makes a strong case for certainty. (Rom 14:5b) "Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind."

The best verse that supports eternal security is John 10:28, where Jesus said that recipients of eternal life shall never perish.
Previous to that, Jesus said that believers possess eternal life, in John 5:24 and 6:47. So, that means the very MOMENT one believes, they possess eternal life, and therefore, shall never perish.
Excellent verse on eternal security!I must have missed the point. I was referring to the concept of "certainty" as the Poll suggests.
How about Eph 1:12-14 which I interpret as saying we are sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day of our redemption.
