Where in the Bible does it guarantee that anyone who believes he or she is saved that it means that it is so?

Originally posted by @eladar1. "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." -- Matthew 7:21-23 KJV
for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”[a]
Obviously this is a lie taken at what you say it means. Jesus said not all who call on him will be saved.
So did Jesus lie or is your understanding here incorrect?

And what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that is the word of faith which we proclaim,
That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. (Rom. 10:9,10)
For with the heart there is believing unto righteousness, and with the mouth there is confession unto salvation. (v.10)
"For the Scripture says, Everyone who believes on HIm shall not be put to shame.
For there is no distinction between conservative and liberal
For there is no distinction between Dixie and Yankee .."
For there is no difference between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord is Lord of all and rich to all who call upon Him.
For whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (See Romans 10:8-13)

Originally posted by @rajk999Jesus showed how to make sense of life, how to live righteously . How to revere the Lord and how to be selfless (poor in spirit) so that we may find our way back to the Lord. We have to find out by living our lives and learning for ourselves .

Jesus will judge all people.
Jesus stated pretty clearly what criteria must be met.
There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth
Originally posted by @karoly-aczelFollow in the footsteps of Christ and you are closer to the Kingdom of God than Christians who deny the importance of righteousness and good works. Good for you.

Do you get to decide which is which?
Originally posted by @suzianneI know the difference between sin and righteousness. You do not. You call evil good and good evil. You will receive your just reward.
Come on... surely, even you know the difference.
There's no "decision" involved. Which is which is pretty much baked into the definitions.
I can see how YOU might get confused, though. The simplest concepts often elude you. Normal people know the difference.
