How can I find assurance in my faith?

Answered in 1 source

Assurance can be found by hearing the gospel and trusting in Christ's completed works.

To find assurance in your faith, it is essential to focus on the gospel and the truths articulated within it. Paul highlights in Colossians 1:23 the need to be grounded and settled in the hope of the gospel, emphasizing that our quest for assurance should lead us back to Christ and His work. Instead of looking internally or evaluating our performance, we should listen to the preaching of the gospel, which reveals Christ and assures us of His promises. Even in times of doubt, we are reminded that our assurance is not based on feelings but on the steadfastness of Christ's faithfulness (2 Timothy 1:12). Thus, engaging with Scripture, hearing Christ preached, and reflecting on His past works provides a firm foundation for assurance.
