Here is something for those who think they are not worthy enough to see the pearly gates open for them.

If I don’t feel saved does this mean I am not saved?

I must confess that of a truth, there are many brethren out there who are in this state of dilemma. They allow their feelings to determine whether they are saved or not. If they are making progress in their christian life, then they know for sure God has saved them for his glory, but if they begin to feel unspiritual probably because of a sin they committed, then they easily conclude that they have lost their salvation, or were not saved even to begin with. The question is, can the way we feel be used as a determinant of our salvation? If I don't feel saved, does that mean am not saved? Or if I feel that I am saved, then it means truly am saved?

The security of our salvation is not based on our feelings, but in the integrity of God's infallible word. The way you feel cannot be a determining factor as to whether you are saved or not, but it is based solely on the integrity of God's word. Our feelings are not reliable, what God's word teaches is the truth and nothing but the truth. What God's word teaches is what we are to hold on firmly and not to waver. If you learn from God's word that your salvation is eternally secure, then you need to believe it, even if your feelings is telling you the other way round.

We must learn to judge our feelings by God's word and not vice versa.  Even when we sin, God's word assures us of the forgiveness of our sins, for in Christ Jesus we are forgiven of all our sins. Paul wrote this: I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His name's sake-- 1 John 2; 12.

The Greek word for, "forgiven" is the word, "aphiēmi" and it means, "to remit, to forgive ". The Greek tense implies a completed action in the past which has an ongoing effect. This means that the sins of our entire life are forgiven and that includes our past, present and future sins. Our sins are forgiven irrespective of our feelings, and our salvation is eternally secure irrespective of the way we feel. Few scriptures which gives us the assurance that we are saved no matter our feelings 

Jesus said: My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.
