AI OVERVIEW: Eternal security is God’s guarantee that the gift of eternal life, once received, is forever and cannot be lost; assurance is a confident realization that one possesses this life. Doubts arise when people say they never trusted Christ, face satanic accusations, cannot recall the exact moment of salvation, or wrestle with issues like baptism or fear of having committed the unpardonable sin. Four bases support unwavering assurance: God’s unchanging promises (eternal life for believers as in John 3:16, John 5:24, and John 10:27–28); the unconditional love of God (Romans 8); the finished work of Jesus on the cross; and the Holy Spirit bearing witness within the believer (Romans 8:16).
