1 Peter 1:5-7
Caveat: some of my opinions and thoughts expressed in this episode change in the next episode.
There is an important difference between eternal security and assurance of salvation. Our eternal security is objective and rooted in God’s unchanging promises, but assurance of Salvation is subjective, depending on our feelings, and prone to change just as our emotions change. Even when we do not feel like it, God is keeping us, and He is ready to reveal us in glory for eternity. So even when we go through times of heaviness and intense trials, God is still in control and He is refining our faith in Him. That is how we can have joy. The key is to continue to have faith in God that He will keep us through the trial and into eternity. That ultimately is our hope.
