Those of faith, do you doubt your salvation?

Atheists, do you ever doubt your eternal death?

Agnostics, grow a pair and admit your really an atheist.

I do not doubt my salvation. It would make God a liar, and I know He is not.

So if you are 100% sure of something, is it faith?

Faith to me equals trust, so I would say yes.

If you "sin", though, isn't your "salvation" then in doubt?

Ah yes, ha ha. Well if you have declared yourself immortal and you have declared that nothing can prevent it from happening, why would you doubt it? Ha ha. Your own certainty is proof positive of what it is you are certain about. 😀

I do not doubt my 'eventual death'.

'Eternal death' is just melodramatic nonsense. My atomic particles will just reappear in a tree or a carrot.

I suspect most of yours will end up in rhubarb.

No.
Faith is when you are sure but don't have sufficient reasons to justify your sureness.
It is possible to have sufficient reasons and thus not faith.

Nope.

Should there be signs that I will in fact not end up dead forever, please let me know. I like to plan things in advance.

Doesn't trust mean there is the possibility that whom you trust will let you down?

I suppose, but wouldn't that make God a liar? Do you doubt the sun will rise tomorrow?

I am not immortal. Technically, I am not "saved" yet. That is future.
God has made a promise and I trust he will fulfill it.
