LIVE DISCUSSION: Testimony of "Lefty" (Part 3 of 3)

from The Bible Provocateur · host The Bible Provocateur

Send us Fan MailDoubt says you could lose it. Grace says you’re already held. We invited Lefty to share a testimony that doesn’t flinch—how fear about “losing salvation” slowly gave way to assurance rooted in Scripture, community, and the Father’s unbreakable love. What follows is more than a feel-good story; it’s a map for anyone who has googled “am I really saved?” in the dark and wished someone living and breathing would answer with patience and truth.We walk through the texts that steadied his heart—1 John 5:12-13, John 17:3, the call of Galatians 6 to carry one another, and the reminder in 2 Corinthians to boast only in the Lord. We push past head-versus-heart clichés and dig into what sanctification actually feels like: a long obedience, a sharpening of desire, a love that grows even as you notice sin more clearly. Lefty’s wife suggests a simple practice—journaling psalms—that becomes a lifeline. That habit, along with late-night panels and real friendships, replaces isolation with fellowship and replaces vague fear with specific promises. Along the way, we tackle hard topics: eternal security versus anxiety, the difference between discipline and disowning, and why “greasy grace” is a bad read of a good God.If you’ve been told assurance is arrogance, or that one stumble erases your name, this conversation offers a better word. Adoption isn’t fragile. The Father’s grip is stronger than your worst day. And when a church community actually shows up—answering questions about Romans 11, singing over one another, praying boldly—the need to outsource your soul to algorithms fades. Come hear a story that will steady your steps and lift your eyes to the One who keeps what He saves.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs assurance today, and leave a review with the verse that anchors your confidence. Your words might be the lifeline someone else is searching for.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!
