Bible Question:
BradK, 1. How do the Bible verses you used give someone who believes they are being loyal to God and saved the assurance of salvation when these verses seem to give obvious examples of those who are not loyal to God? 2. If "only God knows the heart of an individual," does that mean one cannot know for sure if they are saved? 3. What are the requirements that give assurance of having passed the test? |
Bible Answer: Look at 2ed Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. I can tell you this,next time you are driving your car and a song comes on about JESUS,telling everything he did for us,see if it makes you cry? I never did before I was saved.But I will tell you this I cry now!!!!!! I remember someone at work telling me there was something different about me.I many times try to change the way I lived my life,never happen until I went down on my knees and ask or should I say beg (ask earnestly) for Jesus to for give me of my sin'sssss and come into my life! I know It work's,He has changed my life!!!!! May GOD be with you all. |
