Question:
|
After reading the "Left Behind" series for children my son is expressing to me doubts about his salvation. He is now 12 years old. I was with him when he prayed to receive Christ when he was 5 years old.
I have some ideas of how to approach this, but I would also appreciate the unbiased ideas of others. What do your suggest?
Thanks,

Hello Mathaytes,
Welcome to the Forum. That's a tough situation. I haven't read the book (or series), so I'm curious as to what caused him to doubt?
My suggestion is to take him to scripture- the Word of God. His faith is grounded upon what the Word says, not a fictional work! Here's a few:
Eph 1:7 - "In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace" (NASB)
Titus 3:5- "He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit" (NASB)
Heb 7:25- "Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them." (NASB)
Our salvation is based upon the finished work of Christ on the cross!
Speaking the Truth in Love,
BradK
