1 John 2:3–6
3 "By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4 The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him; 5 but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him: 6 the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked."

Assurance is possible and here John reminds that it comes to us through obedience.  We learned in the old covenant that obedience to God's Law was impossible, but now we have been regenerated; we have been made new.  Obedience to Christ's commands is evidence that we are in Christ, for obedience is not possible for the unregenerate man.  Thank God for doing the work of regeneration in you.
