Of all the religious obsessive compulsive battles, the one that is often at the top of the list is a disturbance over the assurance of one’s salvation. What can seem to start off as an admirable question and spiritual inquiry can move into neurotic spirals and never ending searching for something that never quite resolves in the heart of a person. Today I want to speak right into the subject of salvation OCD and provides insights we need to move into deeper healing and freedom.

The enemy is trying to make us obsess over figuring out when we prayed a prayer and got saved or if we're even saved at all. Whenever he does this, I simply reply back "I was saved 2,000 years ago when Jesus declared 'It is finished!' Hallelujah! The blood of Jesus Christ alone is my defense!"

@@davidroger5777 Remember, God prepares a table in the presence of our enemies (Psalm 23). It's our job to simply trust him that he will stop the enemy from taking a seat at the table as we continually look to Jesus and trust and rest and only tune our ears to what Jesus is saying. The lies will have no power and will only be distant thoughts if we choose to focus on Jesus who is sitting and dining with us as we walk by faith (it's a slow progression from glory to glory) through the valley of the shadow of death (the earth).

@Vanessa Chavez Absolutely, it was the Word of God that set me free. I asked God to uproot the lies of the enemy that I had been believing and plant His seeds of truth of His Living Word deep into the soil of my heart. I'm convinced the fear of reading the Word of God was based upon lies I had been believing about the character of God and my identity in Christ and the only way to break that fear was to take a step of faith and open and hear the word of life.

I have prayed and prayed and stay in constant faith. I have to understand. They are only thoughts. I haven’t acted on them. I love the Lord. The enemy sometimes make me feel worthless and say I’m not this or that. But I rebuke it and move on. I am also 40 years old and have been dealing with this since I was in my early 20s. We will keep moving forward and trust in the Lord! Amen! 🫶🏾🙌🏾

This was such a blessing. Thank you Mark! This is something i have struggled with my whole life. Here recently I had a horrible battle with it, I did not eat for 5-7 days. I had panic attacks. I knew what I believed in my heart but I would catch a feeling of unbelief. It made me think I was never really saved and that I never will be. I am now choosing to trust from this day forward that I believe in Jesus and that he died on the cross for me. Even with these thoughts still swirling around in my head. I am choosing to focus on Jesus and his love and his promises. I am choosing to move forward in the boldness in what he did for me, vs what I can do. God bless you!

Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth; break forth, O mountains, into singing! For the Lord has comforted his people and will have compassion on his afflicted. But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me; my Lord has forgotten me.” “Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you. Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually before me. Isaiah 49:13‭-‬16 ESV Wow! A powerful picture of the cross of Christ even in the Old Testament. His nail scarred hands give us assurance that he will never leave us nor forsake us! Amen and amen. 😀🙏

I'm commenting this email which I sent to Mark a few weeks ago in hopes that it might help someone else struggling with assurance of salvation: Subject: The Blood of Jesus Is Enough! Mark, I'm learning everyday to trust more and more in the blood of Jesus Christ alone and the righteousness of Christ alone. I realize now it takes far greater faith to trust in Christ alone instead of trying to ruminate and fix thoughts which has led me to debilitating fear and condemnation. I realize now the only way to live in peace is to let go of my striving and trust and rest in the finishwork of the cross. God has brought me a long way over the past few months because a few months ago I remember thinking I had to be perfect in order for God to be pleased with me. I was looking at my own righteousness for assurance that I was saved which I know now only exalts myself and only leads to fear and condemnation. I'm now looking to the cross in faith where Jesus truly paid it all for me and he alone is my salvation!!! The burdens I've been carrying for so many years are finally starting to be lifted, the peace of God is finally here, and it's all because of Jesus and only Jesus. I didn't even realize I had been living in lies for so long trying to fix my outward appearance instead of now I've let Jesus in to heal my broken heart with his love and now the actions are naturally a flow out of what the Spirit of God is doing within me transforming everyday to be more like Jesus! Hallelujah! Thank you Mark for your videos! And I'm finally starting to read my Bible again not in fearful obedience but rather because I know that God loves me and my identity is resting in Jesus Christ alone!!! God is truly using you to share the truth and indeed the truth is what will set people free.

It has been a long time since yes, debilitating fear, anxiety and worries etc have me to where I also don’t want to get outta bed. There is this heaviness upon me. This channel has helped me so much, I had absolutely no idea I was completely double minded. Not to mention my sister called me the other day completely inconsolable and threatening to take a bunch of pills. She makes horrible decisions and leans on me, I was so whipped after trying to calm her down. What little strength I had that day was all used up. I’m so scared when the phone rings. I see little bits of hope here and there. Please pray for us. Thank you brother.

@@brandonwillingham123 Absolutely! I've found that the Living Word truly is living and it affects the spiritual realm. Don't fight back with your own thoughts and words, rather take a step of faith and open the Word and believe the truth. It will take time but just keep praying, trusting, believing, and receiving because he who promised is faithful. Lean into the comforting arms of Jesus and ask God to highlight things for you personally in His Word. I've also started to write in a journal which you may want to consider as well. I will be praying for you and your sister Brandon that you would be filled with the love of God and know that God himself is holding your right hand and he will never let you go. 🙏 'Then I realized that my heart was bitter, and I was all torn up inside. I was so foolish and ignorant- I must have seemed like a senseless animal to you. Yet I still belong to you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, leading me to a glorious destiny. Whom have I in heaven but you? I desire you more than anything on earth. My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.'

I feel like your personally speaking to me. Every single thing is so spot on for me. I struggle with fear and condemnation. My worst fear is Matthew 723.. that in the end even know i know Jesus is my Lord and Savior, that because I struggle with this ocd He will turn me away one day. Makes me feel self deceived. That I won't get over this in time and He will come back and I won't be ready. I HATE feeling like this. I haven't been to church in months or read my Bible which brings more shame and fuel to the fire. If I have the spirit why do I feel like im always backsliding. Its a burden I wish on know one. I know when I gave my life to Christ, I know when he changed my life, but why do I feel the condemnation of being self deceived. 💔

The Law ist done my friend. Its fulfilled and there is nothing we can add to this fact. Jesus did it for us. Matthew 7 23 explains how beeing too religous doesnt save you. Not everyone that keeps saying Lord will be saved but the ones who believe in the Father and have faith. You are Not saved by works but by faith and the people in Matthew 7 wanted to come to heaven by doing works and it failed. They didnt say we are saved by faith but they showed Jesus their works and this ist not what saves us. Read Romans chapter 10. Paul describes it perfectly how we are saved by faith and that everything ist alright. God Bless

I have new obsession about repentace and godly sorrow. It is so horrible. I continously think of my past sins that "did i REALLY repent?" "Did i REALLY feel godly sorrow?" "What if i did not feel it?" "What if i am beyond repentace?" I have great fear about sinning because i fear that i might not be able to repent anymore if i sin even one more time and it makes me so stressed. I overanalyse my every action to make sure that is not sin. I spend most of my waking hours in tought and i continously think about the past instead of concentrating in the present and future. And every day there is more content added to the past and because of that the thinking and spinning never ends. Self loathing is part of worldly sorrow right? But ocd makes people extremely hard on themselves. I cannot make difference beetween ocd and worldly sorrow. Whenever i feel quilty and anxious i spin about that and think if the guilt and anxiety is produced by sin or is it just symptom of ocd. Ocd makes me confess already confessed sins multiple times and even confess things that maby are not sin at all. Ocd makes me to actively search sin from my life and artifically create new sin if one is not found. This is pure insanity and i need help.

Are you trusting in your feelings or the unchanging Word of God? Confused emotions of fear are not from God. "For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints." 1 Corinthians 14:33 So, if you feel fearful condemnation when reading the Word of God then it's the enemy trying to distort the Word. Rather, humble yourself and ask God to reveal the truth of His Word through the eyes of love and grace and to receive the truth that will set you free.

Thank you Mark 💜 between our own selves, Satan and privileged people in the church that believe they’re the Holy Spirit, a sensitive conscience is doomed. The Christian life is impossible without God. When we fail to celebrate everyday, drowning in depression, anxiety and OCD- we do wonder if he’s there. But I can’t get it through my head that my feelings that are so strong, doesn’t mean they’re true, based on God’s Word.

That's about the size of it. The church I grew up in really messed me up, and then I basically became a Satanist because I was always called a monster and all this other crap because no one knew nor cared to know what Asperger's syndrome is, or what OCD is, so I just figured that since the church was pushing me away, and the world wasn't, and I was getting answers to questions from people who were not Christians that actually made sense, I was just going to do as much damage as I could. I never fully admitted to myself until 2017 that I wasn't a christian, but when I admitted it to G-D, I fell apart at the seams. He saved me right there, but then I fell back into drugs and alcohol again when my dad died 6 months after that and I was the first on scene. I started spinning out because I had lost my supposed moral compass when he had died, and of course, this very church that everyone I am related to seems to go to, (they hold pastoral power and all,) we're very glad to try to shove my grandfather's books in my face all the time, cuz they held him as a prophet pretty much, and that sent me into bitterness. Now I'm trying to get everything squared away again..... It's just a never-ending vicious cycle it seems. There have been days where I've just wanted to die because it would mean an end to all of this bull crap.

I was suffering so badly the other day with not feeling saved and I mean I just felt HORRIBLE like I could just 💀and I was begging God to help me because I already knew that something was wrong in my thinking and I just didn’t know what to do and I woke up the next morning and I believe God told me in my mind and heart that He heard me when I received Him. He knows that I accepted Him as my Savior and that’s all that matters. Our feelings will not align all the time with feeling saved but the important thing is knowing that He knows your heart and deepest feelings/trust you have in Him. Then when I read Psalm 139 it just really was like the cherry 🍒 on top. So I hope this encourages someone. Remember we’re saved by grace through faith not by works. It’s His sacrifice alone and His righteousness alone that gets us into heaven. All He asks us is to receive it not do some insane mental gymnastics to be successful.♥️

So important to have quality fellowship with other believers who know the true Gospel of Grace. When we gather we are to build up (edify) one another in the faith. It's wild how many churches are not a solid community of edification, exhortation, and comfort. Many people like myself have suffered from these issues due to being taught another gospel within religious gatherings as well as at home. I was raised AOG and had a major performance mindset as well as fear of hell and fear of losing salvation.... I find that if I do not fellowship with healthy people I start to erode right back into old patterns of thinking. Toxic relationships will chip away at progress made. So important to guard the heart and have healthy boundaries!

Thank you for talking about this! I’ve been struggling with this for YEARS. This is a huge lightbulb moment. I grew up in the church and have always *believed*, but as an adult, especially the last few years, I have been having a hard time with the times where Jesus gets mad at his disciples, or just the people around him at any given time, he sounds exasperated and annoyed, just fed up with people like me it seems. So I have a hard time believing that he loves me and isn’t sitting there disgusted with me as he was disgusted with all those other people because “we should know better.” This is my biggest blockage when it comes to being vulnerable with God. I’m so scared that I’ll take that leap of faith and walk out in confidence that Jesus loves me, only to die and face him and hear him say “get away from me, I never knew you. I’ll spit you out of my mouth.”

It’s not the prayer that saves you, it’s faith in Jesus Christ that saves you. 1 John 5:13 “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life” You can know you have eternal life if you have put your faith in Christ alone to save you.

Thank you Mark for the work you do. I have had to take medication but I am now able to not overreact when someone is rude to me or might come across as rude. I also am trying to be more present get outside my head and not be so selfish. I still have bad days today my thoughts are how I come across as rude and I push people away. I have become fully isolated and have no friends. The ruminating keeps me from having any friends or reaching out or doing anything I won’t sleep after any socializing. Today I’m trying to say so what to my thoughts and not feed them so grateful for these videos on bad days to help me calm down. My marriage and kids were suffering greatly from my symptoms but trying to give myself grace and forgive myself and moving towards the best that I can without being so perfectionistic and it’s okay to make mistakes. I am also reading your book the rejection mindset very helpful thank you!

For myself the obsessions has been less about morality and sin and more about faith and belief. Much of the wrestling I have dealt with has been over questioning if I really believe and if I have enough faith even though I do believe in Jesus. I do realize the thought loops are unhealthy and for a little while I can feel comfort and then get back in that spiral. It doesn't really answer the questions because I can get an answer and then go back to the spiral. I have been practicing giving this over to God to deal with and trusting God with the anxiety though I find it hard to let go completely. I feel the root is that I just want to know that Jesus accepts me as I am and the fear is of being rejected. I think the reason behind having trouble letting go of trying to figure things out is the fear of trusting God and fear of him not taking care of me which goes back to the fear of rejection. Reading the Scripture however I feel that it is fears that are not biblically based as much of Scripture teaches the blessedness of trusting in God and reading about Jesus I perceive that Jesus accepted people who came to him for help. I have read so often how Jesus has welcomed those who came to him.

I am only at the beginning of the video but this speaks RIGHT to me. This is exactly what I feel and I didn't know about the OCD stuff. I thought the Lord just didn't want to give me faith to truly believe or that my heart was just a stone when I wanted to believe in the Lord. I thought I wasn't saved since I don't have the assurance and I absolutely want to fix it because this is HEAVEN OR HELL FOREVER. But then I said "If you do something to believe, then this is works and you are saved by faith alone". Thank you so much.

What if in trying to gain assurance by diagnosing ourselves with OCD we are actually deceiving ourselves. What if our repentance was not genuine and we think it was thus deceiving ourselves? I don't want to think that I'm saved and then later and dreadfully find out that i was a tare among the wheat, a goat among the sheep. It's terrifying to live with such thoughts. I feel empty inside and my desires for God have faded away. I want to love God, not in my mind trying to convince myself, but for real. I want to be a true child of God and not deceive myself.

Pro tips 1. Did you believe on (or even just ask) Christ to save you? He puts His blood to your account when you do. 2. Remember, He saves you through your belief, not for your belief. 3. Does Christ wish any should parish? No? Didn't think so. 4. If you didn't believe, then you wouldn't be worried... 5. 2 Timothy 2:13 proves Christ keeps you saved even if you stop believing. He adopted you, so you are His responsibility now. You are no longer your own responsibility. He thought this through.

Salvation OCD is the enemy trying to make people question God's loving character and our identity in Christ as Sons of the Living God... namely the truth is all who call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ will be saved. God truly loves us that much and His arm is not too short to save nor His ear too dull to hear. Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth; break forth, O mountains, into singing! For the Lord has comforted his people and will have compassion on his afflicted. But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me; my Lord has forgotten me.” “Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you. Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually before me. Isaiah 49:13‭-‬16 ESV

@@dinasophia9440 I'm finally responding to your above comment/questions. I still struggle each day to some degree with the salvation OCD. I will say, it's so freeing to openly talk about it instead of being afraid to talk about it to people. This is such a big topic and would require a face-to-face conversation to fully be able to connect on this, but suffice it to say... We are spirit, soul and body. Sometimes we are struggling because our minds are tired, or we're being spiritually attacked perhaps, or maybe it's because we're going through Big Life transitions, etc. Whatever the case is, or why you and I struggle the way we do regarding our salvation, the fact is that God sees us in our struggles and loves us in our struggles. I have been learning so so much through Mark's videos here on youtube! I praise the Lord that I found his channel! But yes, the simple way of putting it to answer your question, is trusting God no matter what. I know that that sounds oversimplified, but I know in my case that I am determined to continue to cling to the Lord no matter what! I still struggle with intrusive thoughts, ocd, mental battles, and the like. But I know that God is so much bigger than what I can even comprehend and he loves me so much. Lately he has been giving me peace through simply resting in what Christ has done for me. Just living in the fact and Truth that I'm forgiven because Jesus paid the price. I was in a very very bad place part of last year and earlier this year, and still struggle although it's a lot better than it used to be. I will also mention that I am a first-time mom and my pregnancy was rough, I struggled with depression and anxiety very badly and was struggling with salvation OCD extremely! Thank God for getting me through so much and even though I still struggle, I know who my God is and that's what I cling to, him alone. I hope that this is encouragement to you, feel free to ask any more questions or share in the encouragements yourself. Dina, the simple fact is that we who are resting in what Christ has done for us, are saved by grace through faith in Jesus alone! Hang in there, surround yourself with strong believers, cling to the Lord, he loves you and will never abandon you. Keep hanging in there and keeping your eyes on Jesus even when you're feelings do not line up, they eventually will when your mind is set on Truth! Jesus will get you through this!

Hi! This is an old video but I see people still come here and comment so i hope someone reads this. My salvation ocd is a little bit different, it’s hard for me to accept that i dont have to do anything to be saved, I just have to accept Christ in my heart, I like it cause its simple, but then i see people abusing it. I heard alot of times that you can be a horrible person and do horrible things and dont really change but you are still saved cause Jesus did all the work and changing yourself, moving away from sin for these people is work, and they just jump to “salvation is not work based”. It’s makes me angry that someone thinks that you can just live how you want cause Jesus paid the price… I learned that we have to rely on Jesus only, doing works means we rely on ourself, which helped me, but i still dont believe that it means you can live in sin and still be saved. Im spinning over sins that im doing, that im not accepting Jesus in my heart and that im not struggling with fear, i just agree with it. It makes me spin when i think that i can do whatever i want and im still saved. Ive been criticized by christians cause i think if you accept Christ your life should change(Jesus actually says this in the bible) but those people think that’s works… So im really afraid that i can do horrible things cause im still saved, and the other side of this im thinking that im not actually saved cause i question if the things i hear about that are sinful, i question them cause i dont really feel like those are sins, but i spin cause the bible talks a little bit about that but i spin that it means everything looking similar is a sin. Or if i dont feel like i want to go to church or listen christian music or focus on praising God, cause i want to do something that makes me happy right now, i feel like im not really a christian, cause i do what is good for me. It really feels like theres no solution cause i keep landing on both sides and each answer contradicts the other answer.

I question my salvation everyday. Have been for the past 20 years. Today I feel numb. I want to really love God and be loved by God. Even though I sin I also don't live practicing sin. But I still question, because even though I pray and read the Bible some I fee as though something is wrong with me. I ask if I'm deceiving myself or worst, maybe I'm a tare among the wheat. It's discouraging and feels terrible. I have been a "christian " for more than half my life and the terrible thing is that when reading the Bible I feel more anxiety than assurance. How pathetic is that? I understand that unbelief is a grave sin and that's why most of the people of Israel did not enter into the promised land. I only ask God to have mercy on me. My heart feels hardened and my holy affections have evaporated. All I have are the good memories of the past.

Only been struggling a little over a year myself, so I really feel for you all. OCD is a bully and will tell you all kinds of things, but the thought that you can’t come back to God for wasted time, that’s a lie from the Devil. He don’t want you to serve God but the truth is you are God’s child and He will never let you go no matter how much time you’ve been away from His will. Something that helps me sometimes is to remember that Jesus said there was never a man born of a woman greater than John the Baptist. John was prophesied to tell of the Messiah from birth and filled with the Holy Ghost from his mother’s womb. Yet, when Herod put him in jail, he doubted if Jesus was even the Christ and sent his friends to go ask Jesus if He really was. Even a great man like that had his doubts because of his humanity. I hope that helps you all ❤

Right when you feel like you’re doing something wrong… STOP right there in your tracks and say out loud or in your mind, “It’s okay that this feeling is here right now :) I welcome it” and push forward no matter what your thoughts and feelings are telling you. I’ve learned to start doing something else right away, maybe start listening to a song or start singing. Your thoughts are going to be screaming for you to ruminate & etc.. but nope! The reason this works is because when you try to push the thoughts away and you allow yourself to go into that spiral 🌀 your brain will keep bringing these thoughts back but if you say it’s okay for them to be here and smile or something like that then you’re helping your brain understand that these thoughts/feelings aren’t dangerous. So basically you’re *starving your compulsions.* Also, like Mark says, in that moment remind yourself that you are loved by the Father in the midst of it all.❤

Maybe some of you can advise me - I come to God about 3 years ago. I was raised in catholic country but noone never taught me about God , I was atheist, we have never talked about God in the family ior go to church. And I have never thought about Him and searched for Him until 3 years ago. I have been suffering for severe anxiety and ocd for 20 years. And in the midst of despair I called out to God to help me 3 years ago. And I started doing works right away. I knew nothing about God - only that you have to do good and maybe He won't punish you. And I thought that if will do good maybe He will help me. I really struggle with faith - do I have it, or maybe I'm not believing cose I can't feel faith and I called out to God only because I am sick and desperately need help. So it's selfish. These thoughts are tormenting me - you all here have been Christians for long time and I feel my situation is different - I called to God for help, not for salvation and I'm so tormented by that.

Obsessive compulsive disorder with salvation and/ or sin. Is this sin? What is sin? Am I living in sin? Is this what sin feels like?

Brother, thank you for this video. During mass this morning, the whole homily was about Jesus’ words in the New Testament and when he talks about how narrow the road is to heaven and how those who knock at the door of heaven will be turned away. I am trying to do everything I can to make sure that doesn’t happen to me, but it sounds like it’s going to happen to most people. That is taken right from the Bible. How am I supposed to not worry about that? I would really appreciate your response. This is not my interpretation, this is the word of Jesus. Am I missing something?

For by grace are ye saved through Faith and that not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of WORKS lest any man should boast. All u need to do to be saved is trust in what Jesus did on the cross. There is NOTHING u can do to earn your way to Heaven. Jesus already paid the debt.

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and you believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you WILL be saved

No, we will always be called to remember God's Love, during difficult times or when we fail or in times of spiritual dryness.
