Some people are lost; they know it and don’t care! Some are saved but have no real sense of security. Then there are those that are saved and know they are saved, but there are those who think they are saved and are not. They have a sincere sense of security in their salvation and yet, they are sincerely wrong. I have found that many who have a false assurance of their salvation because it is based on a false doctrine of salvation. What does it take for a person to be saved? Some believe that God loves everyone; died for all people; and that they all will be ultimately saved in the end. Others, as a matter of fact, most others, believe that they are saved by good works. Whether it is the common good deeds of life done, or the keeping of God’s commandments more than they break them. They were a little bit better than they were bad! Many are deceived by the Roman Catholic Church into thinking they are saved by doing and continuance of keeping the sacraments. Being a good Catholic. Another form of salvation by works of righteousness. The truth is that we who are saved are saved by good work, but not our own! It was the finished work of Christ, His Birth, sinless life, death, burial and His resurrection, that paid the price of my salvation. Justification is by Grace through faith in who Jesus is and what He did for me that I couldn’t have done for myself. I am saved and I know it, not because I know Him but because He knew me before the foundation of the world. He loved me and died for me, that I might love and live for Him.
