Bible Note: RBT56 The fact that your questioning your salvation tells me it is a concern in your life. I think it also reveals the condition of your heart. To me it shows a soft heart one in which the Lord is very important and I believe that is exactly the type of heart the Lord desires. Jesus has said he would never leave you nor forsake you, and you have to trust and depend on that by faith. I think your questions and concerns are brought about by the adversary to intimidate you and make you question your salvation. Again it is the heart that the Lord looks at not works, outward manifestations, or even a our doubts. If your heart seeks hard after God, God is faithful to keep you. You just need to build up your faith to drive these doubts from your mind. I would suggest you talk to your Pastor. Be open and explain how you feel and what your working through. I’m sure with his guidance, the work of the Holy Spirit and your desire, you will come to the place where you know, that you know, that you know you are a beloved child of the Lord. EdB |
