In this powerful conversation, Pastor Mike addresses a deeply personal question: “How can I know if I’m truly saved?”
He explains that feeling unworthy before God is not a problem—it’s actually the beginning of true repentance. Using Luke 18, Pastor Mike highlights the difference between the humble tax collector and the self-righteous Pharisee. Salvation begins when we recognize our sinfulness.
But repentance is only one side of the coin. The other side is faith—trusting that God keeps His promises. Many believers struggle because they stop at repentance but fail to fully trust in God’s grace.
Pastor Mike encourages listeners to rest in God’s character, study His promises (especially in Romans 8), and grow in confident faith. True assurance comes not from feelings, but from trusting a faithful God.
