Hi,

I'm new but very happy to be here with like-minded Christians. I was posting on another Christian board, but my convictions were not too well received - but I had respectful exchanges, nonetheless.

Here's a few questions.

Does somebody need to believe in election, predestination, human depravity, limited atonement, etc. to be saved - or can you be saved without accepting those doctrines, I'm guessing you can't but I simply don't know.

Also, regarding Assurance:

Is it common for those whmo are 'truely' saved to be insecure and have doubts and feelings of unworthiness regarding their election.

Thank You - and once again I'm glad to be here!

Sincerely,

Anthony
