Well, I hope that this post will reveal to you if you are a christan or not. In the book of 1John it has a list of tests to reveal if you are a christian. But, I have some questions to ask the professing christians.
Are you living like Christ?
Do you strive to be like him?
Would you be willing to give up everything for Him, like becoming missionary to Africa?
OR are you willing to give away your favorite jeans because you were convicted by scripture that they weren't modest?
Are you looking to Jesus for your forgiveness and as the model of your life?
Do you tell someone to not do something that you yourself do?
Do you gossip behind other peoples backs?
Are you a LUKEWARM christian?
I know that no one can be like him perfectly. I know that these questions were challenging for me. They showed me that I'm not even close to being like Jesus. Christ's death gave us forgiveness for all of our sins, but he didn't just die, because if he did, we would be worshiping a dead Savior; He rose from the dead to give us assurance of our salvation and forgiveness. If this has shown you that you still have a long way to becoming like our king, then that's a good sign that Christ has a plan and a future for you.
With love through the King of grace
