To: Quix; adiaireton8
Thanks, Quix. The reason I know I am saved is because, like you, I have read the Bible and understood the words...

"He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

And they remembered his words" -- Luke 24:6-8

And so you and I, Quix, we remember His words, and believe He rose from the dead because He was God who paid for every one of our sins.

We know we have been redeemed because we believe what Scripture has told us; we believe it is all true. And that belief is a gift from God who testifies to His own glory by our salvation.

"Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand." -- Isaiah 53:10
