"...so to answer your question, no, I have not met a true Calvinist who was not a believer and they believed their salvation flowed from God's sovereign election. While for the brief while I have been a Calvinist, I've never known a Calvinist who wasn't sure s/he was an elect. That being said, there seems to be plenty of Christians today who aren't sure if 1) they are elected (denying their salvation); or 2) if God elects people at all (denying the scriptures). That is really the scary thought.
