Episode 25 of Emmaus Essentials is ready for you! This episode covers chapter 18 of the confession – Of the Assurance of Grace and Salvation. The question under consideration is, can and should a Christian have a sense of assurance (or confidence) concerning their right standing before God?
The confessions summarizes the truth of scripture beautifully noting that a Christian can and should have a sense of assurance. That said, the confession is also sensitive to the fact that, one, some possess a sense assurance though they should not (given that they are not truly trusting in Christ). And two, it is possible for someone who is truly saved to lack a sense of assurance.
The scripture do exhort us to lay hold of this confidence if we are in Christ, and they also instruct us as to how to lay hold of it. Have a listen to learn more!
Soli Deo Gloria!
Pastor Joe
