IN THIS STUDY THERE ARE MANY ASPECTS TO DEFINING AND EXPLORING DOUBT AND UNBELIEF. I WANT TO FIRST ADDRESS ANY DOUBTS ABOUT SALVATION AND SOME OF THE REASONS WHY YOU MIGHT DOUBT THAT YOU ARE SAVED.

ARE YOU DOUBTING SALVATION BECAUSE YOU LACK THE TRUTH?

MANY PEOPLE DOUBT THAT GOD HAS FORGIVEN THEM OF THEIR SINS BECAUSE THEY SIMPLY DON’T KNOW THE TRUTH. HERE IS THE TRUTH AS GOD SEES IT. READ HOW APOSTLE PAUL AND JOHN DESCRIBE THE PLAN OF SALVATION.

A. ROMANS 3:23 “ALL HAVE SINNED AND FALL SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD”.

B. ROMANS 6:23 "AND THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH”.

C. JOHN 3:16 "BUT, GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY SON, JESUS CHRIST, WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE LIFE”.

D. IF YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE A SINNER, BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD AND DIED ON THE CROSS FOR YOUR SINS, AND ACCEPT HIM AS YOUR SAVIOR, THEN YOU ARE FORGIVEN OF YOUR SINS. YOU CAN KNOW THAT, “GOD DEMONSTRATES HIS OWN LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT WHILE WE WERE STILL SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US. MUCH MORE THEN, HAVING NOW BEEN JUSTIFIED BY HIS BLOOD (NOT YOURS) WE SHALL BE SAVED FROM WRATH THROUGH HIM”.

E. THE APOSTLE PAUL PUTS IT ANOTHER WAY, SO WE CAN FURTHER SEE GOD’S PLAN. ROMANS 5: 8 – 11, “FOR IF WHEN WE WERE ENEMIES WE WERE RECONCILED TO GOD THROUGH THE DEATH OF HIS SON, MUCH MORE HAVING BEEN RECONCILED, WE SHALL BE SAVED BY HIS LIFE. AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT WE ALSO REJOICE IN GOD THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THROUGH WHOM WE HAVE NOW RECONCILIATION”.

F. SAINT JOHN SAYS IN THIS PASSAGE; JOHN 8:32, “KNOW THE TRUTH, AND THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE”.
