Assurance is for those who are saved, not for those who are not.

 

[oatmeal]

Are you saved? Do you know you have been born again?

1 Peter 3:15 NASB - but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence;

The love of disciples for each other

being saved is not a one-time event. there is something in the Bible about "being saved" and this process theme occurs more than once

even where it says that He who "endures to the end" will be saved

says

WILL BE saved

it does not say that he who endures to the end IS saved

If a person is born again they are saved. It is impossible to be born again and not be saved. And it is impossible to die without being born again and be saved or born again afterward.

 

[Sheila B]

Saved:
repentance from dead works
faith toward God
once been enlightened
tasted the heavenly gift
become partaker of the Holy Spirit
tasted the goodness of the word of God
tasted the powers of the age to come

Yet, if they commit apostasy... "it is impossible to restore again such a one to repentance"...they bear
thorns and thistles
are worthless
near to being cursed
its end is to be burned

Hebrews 6:4-8
