If you see someone sinning are they "backsliden" (hate that term btw) or are they not yet saved? Who knows? You may say that they are unsaved because you believe that person loses thier salvation if they sin to some (yet ...[text shortened]... ured, it is where we are in eternity; not from one day's sin to to the next day's righteousness.
so you're not saved after all, how refreshing, or at least you don't know if you are saved or not, for all you know, i might be saved and you're not, how refreshing.

Some of us don't have headquarters telling us what to think, when to think it and when the changes are coming. You have that luxury; you have the comfort of abdicating all responsibility for free thinking in exchange for whatever the Watchtower governing body tells you. There is nothing they have told you that you disagree with is there? Not one thing? It's because you are completely and totally right isn't it? You are the chosen awesome ones, the sole holders of God's truth on earth, the representation of him on earth.

He asked how do I know "who" is saved? Not how do I know if "I'm" saved.

Known by fruits not works: But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! NLT

I do not condemn the J. W. for their beliefs. One has to remember, what part of the Bible is not the Bible. Even if all you have is a half of a single page, and take what is written into your heart. Have you not received Christ too. Jesus is the WORD of God. And any part of the WORD is Jesus. If you are Jewish, and receive the WORD into your heart, then you have received Jesus, even if you don't know Him.
