How to believe and get an Assurance of salvation

If you wonder about your salvation check out the next five scriptures.
Every scripture has a
CONDITION & PROMISE
If you do the condition sincerely from your heart, God is faithful
(He has and will never lie) He promises that He will act on His promise. This fact we have to take and act on by faith. Keep on seeking God till the day (not so far away) you will not have to live by faith (concerning your salvation) but you will know for sure that Jesus is the Lord of the universe and also your Lord and Saviour.
1. John 1:12
Condition: Receive Him and believe in His name
Promise: He has given you the right to be a child of God
2. John 3:16
Condition : Believe In Him (and what He said)
Promise: You will not perish but have eternal life

purify you from all your unrighteousness
