False gospels have created counterfeit or self-deceived believers who make the profession of faith without any assurance of salvation.

How unwise is it to travel without a clear knowledge of the destination! But this is what many so called Christian are up to. They live with a profession of faith but with no knowledge, not to talk about the assurance of salvation. No idea where they go when they die. This is a result of wrong belief. Biblical salvation is that you believe the gospel to be saved, and then you remain in the gospel through your entire Christian living.
The Bible not only gives us the way of salvation, it also gives the knowledge of salvation to those who are saved.

This video will help you re-evaluate what you're trusting in, either Christ alone, Christ plus your works, or just your works.
