Assured of Heaven

The famous London preacher, Charles Spurgeon, remarked that in all his life he had only met two or three Christians who did not have doubts about their salvation. Eternity is forever, and if you are not certain that you will go to heaven when you die, this book was written for you.

The famous London preacher, Charles Spurgeon, remarked that in all his life he had only met two or three Christians who did not have doubts about their salvation. Eternity is forever, and if you are not certain that you will go to heaven when you die, this book was written for you. You may ask: “On what basis do you give this spiritual guidance?” The Bible is the source and authority. The Bible is God’s inspired Word to man and it gives the answers we need. Some feel the Bible is subject to a wide variety of interpretations and is too difficult to understand. Neither is true. If you read the Bible as you would another book—say a history book—and take it for what it obviously says, you’ll understand most of it clearly. In one very readable book, Assured of Heaven, deals with the major issues plaguing people about where they will spend eternity. It answers questions like: Will God forgive me? Am I predestined for heaven? Can I lose my salvation? What is most important in gaining eternal life? With a shepherd's heart, taking answers straight from the Bible, Bob Ricker addresses the life-altering issue of doubts as one who has been there. He'll help you, or someone you love, travel the road to certainty.
