For many years I tried to find ways to assure myself that I had found Him. Baptised 3 different times, but never really feeling that something important had happened. Read the bible front to end many times.
Had a really sharp bible study leader. I kept challenging him to explain to me how I would know I had been 'saved'. He finally got exasperated and exclaimed, "When you no longer have any doubt about being saved, you're saved!"
I stood up and said, "Hallelujah! I'm not saved!!!" From that point on, I knew I could never be saved because of my doubt, and I stopped flagellating myself over Christianity.
