The Assurance of Saving

Yes, saving. As opposed to salvation. Because, apparently, they are opposed.

I spent US$1.98 the other day buying some music from Sovereign Grace Ministries' resource page, and used my credit card. A$2.55, in case you're wondering.

The next time I went to use my card, the bank had put a block on it because of this suspicious transaction! It tickled my irony bone...they were unsure about a transaction with a group that are big on assurance...they wanted to save me money in case somebody unscrupulous was behind that purchase from SOV GRACE RESOURCES...

Giggle.

But seriously - that's the world's take on assurance, right there. It's measured in dollar signs.
