In this sermon, Jeffrey Johnson explores how believers can grow in the assurance of their salvation—a confidence that, while not automatic, is something Scripture calls Christians to pursue. He emphasizes that doubt is not uncommon, even among sincere believers, but it should not be a place of rest. Instead, Christians are encouraged to seek a deeper, स्थिर assurance rooted in God’s truth.

Johnson outlines three essential “sources” of assurance: faith, the Holy Spirit, and obedience. Faith is the foundation, directing believers away from introspection and toward վստահing in the promises of God and the finished work of Christ. He reminds listeners that salvation is not dependent on the strength of one’s faith, but on the reliability of Christ Himself. From there, the Holy Spirit works within the believer, affirming their identity as children of God and bringing Scripture to life through ongoing fellowship and sensitivity to His leading.

Finally, Johnson highlights obedience as the natural outflow of genuine faith. Not as a means of earning salvation, but as evidence of a transformed heart that loves God. As believers grow in these երեք areas—trusting God’s promises, walking in the Spirit, and living in loving obedience—their assurance deepens over time. This message offers both comfort and direction for those wrestling with doubt, pointing them back to Christ as their ultimate hope and security.
