The way we act demonstrates whether we have believed and are saved.

When do you say the Apostle Peter was saved ?

[Mark17]

When do you say the Apostle Peter was saved ?

No one knows for sure at what point any of them were saved OSAS. It’s possible, each apostle came to saving faith, at different times, during the ministry of Jesus. I doubt if they all came to saving faith at the exact same second. It’s possible, Peter experienced saving faith, when he said, thou art the Christ, the son of the living God, or maybe it was before that. No one knows, and what’s more, I don’t care when it happened. Just that it DID happen, sometime in his life. He didn’t wait till he croaked, to see if he made it. Neither should you bro. Anyone who waits till they die to see if they merited Heaven, is a fool. Don’t be that way bro.

I am delighted that you asked, brother. I'll do my best to answer. (Okay Lord, this is your opportunity.) The Holy Spirit did not come to abide in the born again spirits until the day of Pentecost. MY OPINION IS that eleven of the Apostles were guaranteed redemption when Jesus chose them. BUT Jesus said He would send a comforter who would never leave them, so the indwelling of the Holy Spirit likely began on the Day of Pentecost, as the Bible relates it. The reality of salvation is immediate upon heart originated belief in Jesus.

The spirit in that moment is cleansed by His blood and separated from the sin-0laden soul, otherwise identified as the behavior mechanism of mind, emotions and will. We inherited that from Adam, along with a fallen nature. There is no more secure place than in the hands of The Almighty as He honors the work of Jesus on our behalf.
