**God’s Word says that you DO KNOW if you ARE saved.**

Because Luther changed the words in the Bible?

Well, what Luther changed in his German translation -- and it was later expunged -- had nothing to do with that particular error. Luther inserted "allein", "alone", so that Romans 3:28 would read

For we account a man to be justified by faith cough cough alone cough cough, without the works of the law.

I just wanted to see what Bodleian_Girl is basing her theory on: people who are saved know that they are saved. Maybe there is something similar in the scripture, it just doesn't ring the bell presently.

I can post a dozen places where the scripture seems to contradict that, but firstly it would be nice to see the case for it.
