Aside from the bible verses... really... when was it clear to you that He loved you and that your salvation was real?
Not trying to provoke negative conversation, just interested in hearing from fellow-Christians who will answer this question.
Thanks!

I was at a point in my life when EVERYTHING was falling apart. I was so depressed that I was crying all of the time. I talked with a counselor and she really tried to help me but she just didn't understand. I talked to a priest but she just didn't understand. I talked to many other people but none of them could help. And that's when I realized that there wasn't another human being on the face of the earth who understood and that I was all alone. That's when I decided to seek out God. Then I heard a preacher preaching about salvation and I accepted Jesus Christ as my savior. And he saved my soul. And, not only that but he pulled me out of the pit of despair by showing me that my misery was the result of years and years and years of sin upon sin. That I was reaping what I had sown over many many years. That's when I knew that everything the Bible says about sin is true. That he didn't make all those rules just to be a big pain and to put me in bondage. But that the rules are there to keep me free from the consequences of sin.

I was 8 years old and my folks fought allot (Dad drank and Mom yelled) I would lay in my bed and read from the Bible that the Gideons had given to me the day I was born and one night I was re-born and asked Jesus in my life and in my heart. I have gone astray and have made my way back, but I could always feel His love for me. Sometimes it came in the form of a firm hand but He has always been there since that fateful night.
God bless you and keep you good night,

When I asked Jesus into my heart. I never felt love like that before and it has been the most overwhelming feeling anyone can ever imagine.
It's a love that is indescribable. When you know you are loved like that the security of your salvation is sealed, because Jesus reveals it to you.

In Mexico on a mission trip when there were too many miracles I couldn't help crying.
First when we wen't there was a car crash right in front of us and a baby lost its life, and we prayed, helped them out and they listened to the gospel. We were way behind schedule when were were bulding a house for a homeless man and god basicly told us to get out of there from using everything from a small car crash(no damage) to being threatened with a gun, but after we left the pastor's in the area went in to finish the house and there were several celebrations in heaven

When I was a child of 10, and it really dawned on me about the suffering that Jesus did on that cross because of my sin, then I realized, that must be love.
As an adult when God has helped me cope with unspeakable stress and has given me the strength to go on, and has in fact blessed me through my trials, it was then that I was reminded of how MUCH God (and His Son) loves me, because He was concerned even about the things in my life that are mundane and small to Him, but huge to me.

I first knew Jesus loved me before I even knew it was Him whose presence I felt. When I was a child, I grew up in a very cold, unhappy home. I recall being very sorrowful, but I felt a presence with me that I later came to know was God/Jesus.
I was not what I would call a "born again" Christian until my late 40's. But I do not ever remember not feeling that presence, that I came to know what God, any time in my life. He was always there.

Jesus does not love you!
You are not freed, there are only 144000 souls who will make it to heaven
So even if 70 people have made it to heaven per year,the heaven's door is closed.
On the other hand if you believe that all christains are going in heaven there must have been 2000 crore idiots in the heaven,
You will rot in hell,
