"fear & trembling", "live rightly", etc Yes, Paul teaches how a believer should live their life. 1 Cor 3:10-15, 2 Cor 5:10 - though saved, the life will be subject to eternal rewards/loss. 1 Cor 5:1-5, 1 Cor 11:27-30 appears to describe what happens if sin is excessive in the life of a saved believer. ** The question though was :- Does the RCC teach that a believer TODAY can be confident they ARE saved ? eg will enter eternal life. I suspect your actual answer is, not sure. Did the RCC - 'sin of presumption' enter your thoughts when answering that question ?
