'Firm' in the Bible

And our hope for you is firm, because we know that as you share in the sufferings, so you will share in the comfort.

He it is who rescued us from so imminent a death, and will do so again; and we have a firm hope in Him that He will also rescue us in all the future,

It is not that we are trying to rule over your faith, but rather to work with you for your joy, because you have been standing firm in the faith.
