How can we be assured of our salvation in Christ?

Assurance of salvation in Christ is grounded in the understanding that it is not dependent on our works but on the finished work of Christ. As stated in Romans 8:33-34, it is God who justifies and no one can condemn those whom He has chosen. True believers are those who rely solely on Christ's death and resurrection, recognizing that they stand before God clothed in the righteousness of Christ. This assurance is nourished through the Scriptures, the assurance of faith, and the witness of the Holy Spirit within us, affirming our identity as God's children and securing our hope in His promises of salvation.
