  ASSURANCE  --J C Ryle   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Assurance, such as Paul expresses in the verses which head this tract, is not a mere fancy or feeling.
Assurance will support a child of God under the heaviest bereavements, and assist him to feel “It is well.” An assured soul will say, “Though beloved ones are taken from me, yet Jesus is the same, and is alive for evermore.
“Assurance is requisite to the well-being of a Christian, but not to the being; it is requisite to the consolation of a Christian, but not to the salvation of a Christian; it is requisite to the well-being of grace, but not to the mere being of grace.

 Assurance (WebBible Encyclopedia) - ChristianAnswers.Net
The resurrection of Jesus (Acts 17:31) is the "assurance" (Greek "pistis," generally translated "faith") or pledge God has given that His revelation is true and worthy of acceptance.
This assurance of hope is the assurance of a person's own personal salvation.
The attainment of this grace is a duty, and is to be diligently sought.

 Assurance
Since God desires that His people have assurance, and to have it through means that increase their sanctification, He established a fabric of truth through which the Holy Spirit operates to work assurance in the hearts of Christians.
The fact that assurance follows and is built on the implications of faith makes us conclude that faith and assurance are two different things.
In short, the means of gaining assurance consists of the earnest appropriation of Christian truth and the sincere, cordial pilgrimage in Christian purity and practice.

 Assurance of Salvation - Bill Baldwin
Such assurance is ordinarily not desirable since it would cause the believer to become lax in good works.
In that sense, assurance is of the essence of faith.
So it is clear that the tiniest amount of faith and assurance infallibly point to the truth of God and the efficacy of the work of Christ and thus become the instrument of salvation.

The show-stopper was a projection screen boldly displaying a quote from a business that had abandoned their CPA firm in favor of their security audit.
With the threat of cyber-terrorism only increasing in the future, there should be some kind of standard program or process developed where regulators as well as financial institutions can feel certain they are receiving "security assurances".
