Do you have salvation?

I am hitting on this subject once again because of how important it really is. This is from a slitly differnt angel than the previous entry. That being said here is my blog.
How do we know we have salvation?  Some religions believe you can never be sure about it. But a little research in the bible shows that we can have biblical assurance.
  The bible does talk about people who believe they have salvation but don’t.  What is authentic salvation?  Is it a that we pray a prayer?  I don’t think so, how many people would have salvation because they pray for God to save them when in deep trouble and usually end that prayer with a if you save me I will do/not do, fill in the blank.  Prayer is a our line of communication not our salvation. And no matter how sincere a person is about that prayer doesn’t mean salvation is truly there. How many times have you said something and truly meant it but then changed your mind because circumstances changed.  I found out two things about salvation true salvation comes as a result of the presence of the Holy Spirit.  What is important about this is that house of God is not divided.  Upon the entrance of the Holy Spirit in our lives authentically dominion of who were are as a person is handed over. Instituting a very powerful change in the core of our being. This change will change our desires. With a change of desire comes a change of behavior.  I found the greatest and most accurate measure of our salvation. The answer is love.
                                John 14:15 If you love me, keep my commandments.As I have been requesting a deeper revealing of the Holy Spirit I have found that I am finding a deeper love for Adonai. In fact in my prayer most days I have been calling Him Papa in prayer. Why? Because I am seeking a real and deeper intimacy with Him. As this has been occurring I have desiring more and more to be obedient to his commands. I obey these commands simply because I love Him and no other reason.  My drive toward a greater obedience is based solely based on love and a desire for a greater intimacy with Adonai.  How can you know you have salvation?
You will mortify the deeds of the flesh through the power of the Holy Spirit.
