If you ask most people if they are going to heaven when they die, they will usually respond “I hope so,” or “I think so,” or simply, “I don’t know.” This is even true of many people who attend church regularly and look at themselves as Christians. Can we know that we are saved? Is there really any Assurance of our salvation? Can we know that we will never lose our salvation? Is there really any security in our salvation? In this brief series of lessons, we look at the Scriptural basis for believing in the “Assurance and Security” of the believer. Assurance that we can KNOW we are saved, and Security that we will NEVER lose our salvation.
These Bible messages were taught by Pastor Gregg Bing during the adult Sunday school class in 2018 at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Christ in Paul's Epistles - His Coming
The last group of Paul's epistles to local churches primarily deals with Christ and His Coming. This group consists of Paul's two letters to the believers at Thessalonica who were suffering affliction and persecution from the unbelieving Jews there. Because of this tribulation, these believers were worried and confused about issues having to do with the tribulation period, the day of the Lord, and the return of Christ for His church. Paul addresses these concerns as well as instructing believers how to live in light of their blessed hope in Christ.
