Bible Question: How can one be sure of his/her salvation? |
Bible Answer: Jeremiah 17:10 "I, the LORD, search the mind and test the heart, requiting each one for his conduct and as his deeds deserve." Reformed theology leads to the inevitable conclusion that no one can be certain of one's own salvation. By the same token, no one can be certain of any other person's salvation or condemnation. The judgements of God are God's alone. We have to learn to live with that uncertainty. Elliot |
