Truly saved? I mean drag me out back, line me up and shoot me saved? Some in England were burned at the stake for writing the bible in English! Many had their heads cut off before their children, if they would not accept the pope as God! Matthew 24, Jesus said, "They will deliver you to tribulation, and put you to death" Matthew 24:9 They will kill you: and you will be hated for my name's sake. John 15:18-19 "If the world hates you, it hated Me before you. If you were of the world, the world would love you; but because you are not of the world, because I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. The "Christians" who are not truly saved are still part of the world and will hate you. Some will call you the antichrist.

Only the power of Christ alone in you, can work the transformation in heart and mind that you must experience, you will partake with Him of the new life in the kingdom of heaven. "Except a man be born again," the Savior said, "he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3. The religion that comes from Jesus is the only religion that can lead to God, in order to serve Him right. You must be baptized by His Holy Spirit. This will lead to a watchfulness. It purifies your heart, renews your mind, gives you a new capacity for loving God. It gives you a willing obedience to His commands. You will hear Him and obey Him. Your desire will be to please God and see others saved. This is true worship. If you are truly saved, the Holy Spirit will give you words that God wants you to hear. Obeying these words is the "works" that you do to please God and further His Kingdom. The words from Him are your commandments to obey. Failure, and the Holy Spirit will haunt you. Failure requires you to visit Jesus again. You will not turn back. You are a New Person" and will be forgiven and go on. You will never deny what God has done! Hearing God's voice through the Holy Spirit is the same as the ten commandments given to the Jews. If truly "born again" your desire is to please God in all ways, it rules your life. Failing and being forgiven is simply learning. This is where your growth will come, for the rest of your "born again" life. Proverbs 2: 1-7 My son, when you receive My words, and hide My commandments within you; You will incline your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding; Yes, if you cry after knowledge, and lift up your voice for understanding; If you seek My words as gold, and search for My words; Then will you understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God. God gives you wisdom, out of His mouth comes knowledge and understanding. He lays up sound wisdom for the righteous. He is strength to them that walk uprightly.

Matthew 4:19 Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers. They were casting a net into the sea, they were fishermen. "Come, follow Me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." At once they left and followed Him. Will you? Yes, you will suffer, that has already started! Jesus will come at the end of Tribulation. Your work is to see how many your witness will help lead to Jesus!
