John,

 

Why not just pray the salvation prayer to resolve the issue once and for all, if you never have?  I believe you were saved when you had that infilling experience from what you say, especially since the devil came to put doubt in you.  But I believe there comes a time pray that prayer “just for the record” to be sure, and to have a moment that you can look back to when the devil comes in to accuse. (In fact, that is what I thought I was doing when I actually got saved, and had my initial “infilling experience”.)  I don’t think anyone was ever “always saved”. There must be a moment in time when the covenant was entered into by our own volition. But both before and after praying the prayer of confession and acceptance of His Blood and accepting Him as Lord of our lives, the Lord is working in our lives; first to save us, and then to instruct us in a holy walk. What do you think?

Both John and Perry’s experience sound a lot like what I consider my “salvation’ moment. Did you both consider yourselves to be “saved” prior to this filling experience? Izzy



I have always considered myself to be saved.   But, funny you should ask.   After the filling,  there was an evening when I was impressed that I might not have been saved prior to the experience.   I put that thought behind, but, for the only time in my Christian life, I was truly afraid of being lost.
