It has been characterized as a "short Romans" and embraces in its six short chapters such a variety of vehement and intense emotion as could not be paralleled in any work.

One of Christianity's most controversial issues - and one of our most frequently asked questions - involves the concept of eternal security. There are good scholars on all sides of this issue, yet we felt it would be useful to explain our own views on this highly charged subject.
