Bible Question (short): Feelings demonstrate the facts? |
Question (full): Doc, Let's begin with one of MacArthur's initial statements. He says, "The subject here then is the assurance of salvation. And we have noted that there are basically two questions to ask. Question number one, is salvation forever? Is it secure? Question number two, can I feel that security? One is a fact and the other is a personal confidence. They are inseparable." It seems he places "feelings" as the basis for "personal confidence." Again, he seems to consider "fact" and "feeling" as inseparable. Therefore, can one safely conclude that if he feels saved, he is saved? |
