Faith That Holds Fast
Commentators explain that salvation is linked to a faith that actively "holds fast" to the gospel. This isn't about perfect memory, but a persevering, genuine belief. Scholars like John Gill and Charles Spurgeon contrast this with a "nominal" or "merely notional" faith, which the verse warns could be "in vain."
