Sinners can be assured of their salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, who offers forgiveness and justification (Romans 10:9).
Sinners find assurance of their salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. Romans 10:9 states, 'that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.' This promise underscores the personal nature of salvation—it requires a heart belief in the resurrection of Christ as the foundation for hope. Assurance comes from recognizing that salvation is a work of grace, entirely dependent on what Christ has accomplished rather than on our own performance. Furthermore, the testimony of the Holy Spirit within the believer provides a deep-seated assurance that they are indeed children of God, having received His forgiveness and righteousness through faith.
