What do you do when God feels a million miles away? What do you do when the enemy discourages you about your salvation? Or when thoughts sneak in like, “You didn’t really pray that prayer.” or “You’ve messed up so many times.” or “You’re not a good Christian like so-and-so…” 

God doesn’t want you living in uncertainty or anxiety when it comes to your salvation or eternal destination. Quite the opposite really! In 1 John 5, the Bible gives us the litmus test of whether or not we have eternal life and then says, “I’ve written these things that you may KNOW you have eternal life…” 

>> Did you catch that? Not hope, not wonder, not guess...that you may KNOW!

If you’ve ever had doubts about whether you are going to Heaven or whether you are really born again or “saved,” this message is for you! After these 20+ minutes together studying the Bible, you will gain a fresh confidence in your salvation -- based on God’s Word -- not based on doubts or feelings. 

Plus, I’ll tell you about the “train analogy” that has helped me so many times throughout my Christian life when I’ve experienced doubts or fears or concerns on any topic. I know it will help you too!  

(Note: If you’re following along in my “Getting A Grip On The Basics” workbook, this lesson is from Chapter 2: How to be sure you are a Christian.)
