How do you know if you are a Christian who is saved?

Question

I’m unsure if I have been. I got baptized when I was 19, I don’t believe I was ready to surrender my life over to Christ back then although I thought I was. I recently committed a sin twice that goes against the 10 commandments. I feel very guilty. I confessed my sin and repented but I’m not sure if it is enough to make it to heaven since I did it twice. I felt bad the first time, didn’t think I’d do it again, but I did and feel even worse this time. Now I know I’ll never do it again. I heard if you are saved you would never commit a bad sin like this. For years I thought I had a strong faith, but i realized the things that I’ve been doing for years have not been Godly. I feel like my guilt is keeping me from pursuing a relationship with God now and asking him for his forgiveness because I feel like I do not deserve it and should be punished and live a miserable life. I understand that God can forgive all, He forgives all that is repented but how many times can you do the same thing regardless of forgiveness and still make it to heaven? I was sure of my faith until I committed these two sins. Now I’ve been wondering if I’ve ever been saved/have had faith at all. Now I know that I am ready to commit my life to Christ but if I’ve already been baptized would there be a point in doing it twice?

Answer

Sweetie, you never need to worry about whether you are saved or not. The Atonement of Jesus Christ is for literally everyone. You know that he can and will forgive all things that are repented of. 
He is not disappointed in you. He’s not. I know how it feels when you keep making the same mistake and you feel like you don’t deserve his forgiveness and it took me years to realize that He had already forgiven me, it was me who hadn’t accepted his forgiveness. 
Your Father in Heaven and his Son love you, unconditionally. They love all of us despite our sins and weaknesses and failures. No matter how many times you fail on your path, they are right there waiting for you to get back up and try again. They do not expect you to be perfect, but they do expect you to try. And that is absolutely what you are doing.

Answer

im not religious anymore but i was always taught that you only need to be baptized once and when you sin to just confess your sins to god in prayer and ask forgiveness. then do your best to avoid the same sin. humans arent perfect and make mistakes every single day.

Answer

As a Christian if you believe in God and that Jesus is his son and our savior then you have already been saved. When Jesus died he did so for us so that our sins would be forgiven.

Answer

To best answer this question, we’re going to look at two powerful passages of Scripture. The first is found in the book of Psalms: “As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us” (Psalm 103:12). One of the most effective tricks Satan plays on Christians is to convince us that our sins aren't really forgiven, despite the promise of God's Word. If we've truly received Jesus as Savior by faith, and still have that uneasy feeling wondering whether or not there is true forgiveness, that may be coming from demonic influences. Demons hate it when people are delivered from their grasp, and they try to plant seeds of doubt in our minds about the reality of our salvation. In his vast arsenal of tricks, one of Satan’s biggest tools is to constantly remind us of our past transgressions, and he uses those to prove that God couldn't possibly forgive or restore us. The devil's attacks make it a real challenge for us to simply rest in the promises of God and trust His love.
But this psalm also tells us that God not only forgives our sins, but removes them completely from His presence. This is a profound thing! Without question, this is a difficult concept for humans to grasp, which is why it's so easy for us to worry and wonder about forgiveness instead of just accepting it. The key lies in simply giving up our doubts and our feelings of guilt and resting in His promises of forgiveness.

Answer

You don’t lose your salvation.

Answer

I believe it's only human to make mistakes and that you will be forgiven for the wrongs you've done if you regret it with all your heart, which you obviously do.

Answer

Once you are saved you are eternally saved but being baptized does not save you. You need to accept the Lord and savior in your heart. If that is what you want then you can very well do it again to make sure.. it’s called rededicating your life to the Lord. Now, please understand our God is a loving God and full of so much grace! He forgives us no matter what we have done and loves us! We commit sins everyday that he forgives. Nobody is perfect. What is important in pursuing your relationship with the Lord is asking for forgiveness and trying to be better! Be obedient to the Lord and spend time with him and you will have that close relationship and realize that no matter what you have done or are doing that God is still there for you.

Answer

No one is perfect and we will make mistakes every day. If you look at jw.org there is a ton of information based off the Bible. For people of all ages. It’s a very encouraging site and you can look up any question and it will give you answers from the Bible. I hope that helps you :)

Answer

I think that just means if you’ve been baptized. If you aren’t sure if you’ve been or not, you can do it multiple times.
