1. R U STRESSED BY A DOUBT OF YOUR SALVATION?

2. 2 Timothy 1:12-“That is why I am suffering as I am. Yet I am not ashamed, because I know whom I have

3. believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him for that day.”

4. 1 John 5:13-“I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may

5. know that you have eternal life.” They knew that their eternal destination would be with Christ, and YOU can too!

6. I. TRUE SALVATION IS BASED IN THE PERSON OF JESUS.

7. II. TRUE SALVATION IS BASED IN THE POWER OF JESUS.

8. Romans 8:35-39- “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine

9. or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: "For your sake we face death all day long; we are

10. considered as sheep to be slaughtered." No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For

11. I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,

12. neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

13. John 10:28-29-“I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My

14. Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.”

15. III. TRUE SALVATION IS BASED IN JESUS’ FAITHFULNESS.

16. 2 Timothy 4:17-18 “But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might

17. be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was delivered from the lion's mouth. The Lord will

18. rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.”

19. IV. TRUE SALVATION WILL BE REVEALED ON THAT FINAL DAY.

20. 2 Timothy 4:8-“Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous

21. Judge, will award to me on that day--and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.”

22. “You are not a post stuck in the ground. You are a tree planted, and that growth has to continue throughout life.” (Ron Dunn)
