I had a somewhat strange conversation today. The conversation was with another professing believer and the topic was on salvation, more specifically the role of salvation in terms of Gods sovereignty vs. human responsibility. This professing believer from the beginning was obviously Arminian in his theology but then took it to a whole other level with a certain comment. We were speaking on the ‘sinners prayer’ and they commented, “I believe if one does not know the date of their salvation then most likely they aren’t saved”. While I realize many know the very day of their salvation, there is a large portion that are unaware of the exact time of their justification. I was pretty awestruck, and didn’t really know what to say except “I disagree.”
My question is, where does this line of theology originate from? Is this simply something they made up in their own line of thought or is this something that may have historically been taught?
