3. Confidence comes from what
is written – not what we feel
(I Jn. 5:13)
Feelings are uncertain.
Feelings can produce false confidence.
Feelings can produce false concern.

How Can I Know for Sure?
4. Confidence depends on the Spirit’s
testimony – not speculation
(I Jn. 3:22-24)
Our assurance should never be based on speculation but on
knowledge.
Assurance is based on the Holy Spirit’s testimony (Rom. 8:16).
How does the Spirit bear witness with our spirit?
What does the Spirit say we must do to be saved and go to
heaven?
The Spirit bears witness with our spirit whether or not we can
answer yes, to what the Spirit has commanded us to obey.

from past accomplishments
or failures (I Jn. 1:6-2:2)
