"12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life." - I John 5:12-13

Why would John say "that you may know you have eternal life" if we couldn't?

And how do you know the saints you're praying to are in heaven? Because the Church states it or that someone was healed when they said a prayer?
