Indeed ... what a terrifying thing, to reach the end of life and discover that striving to obtain salvation has insulted The Grace of God in Christ, bestowed by faith alone, for no merit on one’s part. Satan’s greatest accomplishment is convincing humans that they can strive and obtain Grace, for this prideful attitude at once insults the Glory of Christ’s sacrifice for us and for our salvation.

Yep, thinking one can do good works, and strive to attain Heaven, really is an insult to the true grace of God. Most likely it will end with weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Have you committed the sin of presumption today? Of course, you know that means you enjoy the gift of God, and revel in His assurance of salvation. That's the only sin I love to commit. 😄😄😆😎 If others have no assurance of salvation, that's on them. 😇
