To paraphrase Dorothy Gale, if you “lost” your salvation then you never really had it in the first place.
Therefore, you cannot have Assurance of Salvation because you might have never been Saved later in life
Therefore, you cannot have Assurance of Salvation because you might have never been Saved later in life
The Bible does speak to both. It is our small minds that want easy quick answers.
So how does one know if you have real assurance of salvation? That is a very deep question and Gods Living Word does speak to that also.
