Be Sure you are a Christian

You can be sure you are a Christian if you have truly accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. The Bible says "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9). You have been saved for all of eternity because of your faith in Jesus Christ by the grace of God.

Your feelings will not always echo your salvation. There will be days when you don't "feel" saved. But your feelings don't determine your salvation; your faith in Jesus does. "Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God" (John 1:12 ).
