Jn 14:27
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the 
world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be 
troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Rm 5:1
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God 
through our Lord Jesus Christ:

Eph 2:14-17
For he is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken 
down the middle wall of partition between us; Having 
abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of 
commandments contained in ordinances; in order to make in 
himself of two one new man, so making peace; And that he 
might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, 
having slain the enmity thereby: And came and preached peace 
to you which were far off, and to them that were nigh.

Col 1:20
And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by 
him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, 
whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

If one is truly saved, one should be at "peace with God"  
(blessed assurance).  Jesus broke down the dividing wall
between us and Father God.

However, do not encourage yourself or others to MANIPULATE 
feelings.  If you or someone else do not feel at "peace 
with God", that feeling is a red flag indicating something 
wrong between you or that person and God.  It is a DEADLY 
matter to encourage yourself or someone else to MANIPULATE 
feelings so you or that person thinks one is saved when one 
is not saved.

Feelings are often indicator of a deeper problem.  If the
person is not right with God (e.g., in sin), that person
will not feel at peace with God.  That person needs to
figure out what is wrong and turn one's life around
(e.g. repent of sin).

It is 

"Once Saved" + "Commitment to Jesus" = "Always Saved" 

where "Commitment to Jesus" means 

- having an active faith,
- living a life of repentance, and
- obeying the Lord.

When you or someone else does not have "peace with God" 
feelings, investigate your or that person relationship with 
God.  

- Are you or that person having an active faith?
    E.g. reading the scripture daily, praying daily, 
    serving the Lord
- Are you or that person living a life of repentance?
    I.e., not WILLFULLY sinning?
- Are you or that person obeying the Lord?

As you or that person makes a radical "Commitment to Jesus", 
the "peace with God" feeling will naturally come.  Let this 
feeling be an INDICATOR, not encourage it to be MANIPULATED.
