“Can You Really Know That You’re Saved?” December 7
Have you ever wondered whether your salvation is really genuine?
Maybe you’ve asked yourself:
“What if I only think I’m saved?”
Or perhaps you know you’re trusting Christ, yet when you look at your failures, your struggles with sin, or areas where you’re still growing, doubts creep in.
Is that uncertainty simply part of the Christian life?
Or does God actually want His children to know that they have eternal life?
The Apostle John wrote his first letter, in part, to answer that very question.
And he didn’t tell believers to look for assurance in a past emotional experience, a prayer they once prayed, or how religious they appeared.
He pointed them to something far more substantial.
So what are the marks of genuine saving faith?
And what should you look for when doubts about your salvation arise?
We’ll also look at why religious activity without a heart that truly seeks God can miss what matters most, and what Proverbs teaches about the importance of the heart behind our obedience.
