Have you abandoned hope?
God gave us a sturdy boat (Grace) and a star to sail her by (the Church) and has prepared a banquet for us on the far shore (heaven). It is our journey to make and our duty to assist our fellow travelers. Faith and Hope are a trailing wind.
Peace be with you.
Whenever I have stated this on these forums before, I have been met with Catholic condemnation that I am committing the sin of "presumption" and that NOBODY can know they are saved. The Bait and Switch game of which I was speaking is that the Roman Catholic Church insists that she is the ONE, TRUE Church established by Jesus Christ and outside of her is no one saved (or at least the earlier Popes declared by their infallibly defined infallibility that was so (see the bull Unum Sanctum)).
What I abandoned when I left the Roman Catholic Church was the false doctrine of salvation by faith PLUS works that essentially made salvation wholly by works and by which it was claimed no one could possibly know they merited Heaven until they faced judgment. What I firmly laid hold upon was the promise of Jesus Christ that he gives to us eternal life and we shall NEVER perish, no one can pluck us from his hand, he will never lose us nor cast us out, but by believing in him we have everlasting life. I'd say my life is FULL of hope because it is based upon the Lord and giver of life!
