Assurance is the confidence or knowledge that you have been born again as a child of God and that with the Holy Spirit’s help, you will persevere with Christ to the end of your life. This knowledge or confidence is based both on the promises of scripture and the internal witness of the Spirit (Colossians 1:22-23, Romans 8:15-16). Another evidence that points to the assurance of our salvation is an ongoing growth in godliness (2 Peter 1:5-11).
