Also the decision is not made on our death. The moment we accept Christ’s atoning sacrifice on our behalf we pass from death to life and our salvation is accomplished.
You are correct mom. It sounds like you have assurance of salvation. You realize, of course, that puts you in direct opposition to the Roman Church, which says you are guilty of committing the sin of presumption. 👍 So am I, by the way. The “sin of presumption,” is the only sin I love to commit. 🤣 I commit that sin 10,000 times a day. 😁
Now, if someone waits till they die, to see if they will “attain” Heaven, it’s an ironclad guarantee, they will wake up in the fires of Hell, and will wonder what happened.
Assurance of salvation is a beautiful thing. Everyone should try it. They will like it.
