Bible Question:
How can you be sure your salvation is genuine? |
Bible Answer: Top, I know of no five consecutive chapters in the Bible that shed more light on the assurance of salvation than does the little epistle of 1 John in its five chapters. John uses the word "know" some 40 times in his epistle, generally in the context of knowing or being sure of salvation. Christianity is unique among world religions. It offers absolute assurance of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Other religious systems hang together on good works. --Hank |
