True Faith- “How Do I Know I’m Saved?”

  True Faith- “How Do I Know I’m Saved?”                                            Pt. 4 “Fortitude”                                                                           Colossians 1:21-23   God’s Preservation (vv.21-22)   Phil. 1:6  And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ     Ro. 8:31,33,39 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be[i] against us?.. 33 Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies….  39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.   Our Perseverance (vv. 22b -23)   Jo. 6:66-69 66 After this many of his disciples turned back and no longer walked with him. 67 So Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you want to go away as well?” 68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life, 69 and we have believed, and have come to know, that you are the Holy One of God.”   Job 1:20-22 20 Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head and fell on the ground and worshiped. 21 And he said, “Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.” 22 In all this Job did not sin or charge God with wrong.   1 Cor. 15:1-2 Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2 and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain   Ro. 8:35-39 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written,   “For your sake we are being killed all the day long;     we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”   37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.       7-14.docx46.1kB
