Do you think you are saved?

nota bene said:
Yes, with the help of the Holy Spirit. How else can you explain a martyr such as Archbishop Cramner, who held his hand, the hand through which he felt he had betrayed his faith, in the fire until it burned off?

Nothing that came from God did that.
 
25*Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

26*And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

If you believe in Jesus you're saved. Simple as that.

I strongly disagree.

Why do you think, then, that Cramner was able to do this? Why do you not think that this was not the same Holy Spirit who ministered to Jesus in the desert during those 40 days and nights?

A mislead idiot if he did that--God would never ask one to do that.

Does a mortal have the right to tell another--you are saved( or born again)???---NO--- That mortal has 0 clue as to who will be saved.
1) A mortal has never seen the book of life.
2) A mortal cannot read ones true heart.
3) a mortal has 0 clue as to who will endure till the end.

Teachers who try to tell others these things-are actually trying to elevate themselves into Gods position, only he writes names in the book of life, only he can read the true heart.

these teachers are ear ticklers- Like once saved always saved--not truth--one must endure till the end--God warned all--GET OUT OF HER.

To be honest, if I were to die right this second, there is a very good chance I would wind up in Hell.

I haven't been to Confession in almost three years, and I've been missing Mass quite a bit more than I would really prefer lately.

This is all ultimately up to God, of course. However, only a fool would think that they are without room for improvement in their lives.

"Salvation" is, in my opinion anyway, a lot like physical fitness. It is something you always have to work to maintain.

I was convinced of it once. It is like adolescence - you grow out of it.

Isnt eternal life in Gods kingdom worth doing this 24/7? Matt 16:24

I love Matthew:

At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 18:1-3).

Not something you can easily connect to American 'Christianity' though, is it? They pay the Zionists to shoot them, you know, children.

Oh, absolutely.

Walking the "straight and narrow" path simply happens to be easier said than done sometimes. :lol:

Yes it is the hardest accomplishment a human can do--1% succeed
