What's the difference between "assured" and "sure"?

Question

Answer

to assure = to make someone sure

"i assure you, it is correct" (same as "you can be sure it's correct")

to be assured = to be made (to be) sure,

eg. if someone assures you,  someone makes you sure.

Answer

Ian's is the best answer. I just want to add that to be "sure" is to be certain of something.

It can also be used in the place of "yes" in some situations.

Ex: Will you take out the trash? Sure.

Answer

example:i am sure i will win
example: i assure you its the best machine 
                 it is assured.

Answer

Rest assured that I am not sure.
