No, no, no.. I was suggesting it for your view - if you can have "conclusive proof" about yourself, then someone else could get it about you by asking you.

Oh, OK, that's very different. ......... Nevermind. :) However, that wouldn't work for us either because there are some false believers. There are those who will claim "Lord, Lord", etc. So, it can't constitute proof.

It doesn't constitute "proof" because it's solipsism. Problem is, in and of itself, such "knowledge" of being "saved" is itself suspect and without proof internally. It could be God, a demon, or insanity.
