yes. you know i feel so sad for my family members. some of them are say yes by grace we cant add nothing to salvation by our works. but then on other days they are scared did i lose my place in heaven or did that guy lose it and they are always in doubt never sure. speaking both things kind of undecided territory and no matter how much times i show it, they forget it next week
are they saved? i dont know i hope so, i believe they are really sincere and their life is consumed by all things Jesus. they are better christians than me, i believe they just grow up in a environment thats causing them to be like that. hope God has grace for them in their doubts too. what you guys think?
I have had experiences with people raised in evangelical churches, hear the gospel, know the gospel but have never make it something they make personal to them.
They have not yet made the mind heart connection.
Not saying this is your family ...but it came to my mind when I read your post
I was so envious of people raised in evangelical churches when I was born again...
not realizing they too sometimes do not grasp the Gospel completely.
