Christian Basics - Chapter 2

How to Be Sure You Are a Christian

Each of the three persons of the Trinity contributes to our assurance.

The Work of God the Son – Our acceptance with God depends not on ourselves and what we could ever do, but entirely on Christ and what he has done once and for all on the cross.

The Word of God the Father – Our assurance rests above all on God’s word about Christ’s work, it does not depend primarily on our feelings. Feelings are an unreliable index to our true spiritual condition.

The Witness of God the Holy Spirit – confirms the word of God the Father concerning the work of God the Son.
