I wonder if you have any assurance of salvation?

Yes

I see bro. It seems we have a problem here. Let me say first, I think you randomly generated verses again. You are quite good at it, but Elizabeth has no bearing on your salvation, or lack of it. The problem is, many in your chosen religion, keep telling me and others, that to have assurance of salvation, is committing the sin of presumption. Would I be correct in assuming, that since you tell me you have assurance of salvation, that as a catholic, belonging to a works based religion, you are committing the sin of presumption too? You have a problem with other Catholics bro. Since I am an ex catholic, I never had any assurance of salvation. I do now, but only because I am an ex catholic. How are you gonna reconcile your assurance with other Catholics, since most of the others don’t have any. You got your work cut out for you bro. Good luck with that, you may need it. 👍😁 Keep studying. Maybe you will figure out what 1st Corinthians 2:14 means. I already have. Have a nice eternity bro, wherever you may spend it. 🙃

Perhaps that is because the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

    It is false that the scripture verses are randomly generated.
  1. This thread is titled Why Heretics Hate Mary and We Should Love Her More so it is entirely appropriate to post scripture with the beautiful and Spirit filled testimony of blessed Elizabeth and Mary.
  2. The scripture from the Apostle Peter deals with assurance of salvation and how to obtain that assurance (note that one is not assured of salvation by believing one is assured of salvation).
  3. The passage from Matthew also deals with assurance of salvation where the Messiah warns against taking one's status as a servant of the LORD for granted and not maintaining faith and doing good works.
  4. The definition of generated also argues against the false allegation of randomly generated.
