Are You Truly a Christian?

February 27th 2011 23:01

We should assess ourselves from time to time to see how we have changed for the good that we have been created for. We need to ask the question, “If I died today and went before God, would there be enough evidence to convict me of being a Christian?” Now, that doesn't mean simply have I changed for the better- NO. Everyone changes during there life and as they get older. But, more importantly, is have I changed in the vital areas that I am supposed to.

Do you still practice, condone, or are you seen in the eyes of others as practicing/condoning:
-deceitful manipulation
-condoning the bad behavior of others around you

-lying
-using an abusive nature either with words or works
-living by the sins of the flesh or making excuses for others who live by these sins (ie. sexual immorality)
-covetousness
-idolatry (and remember that anything can be idolatry: people- ie. children, actors, singers, politicians, music, movies, careers, etc. – basically anything you obsess over or spend more time on than worshiping God ie. Prayer, praise, thanksgiving, ministering to the needs of others, etc.)
-murder
-etc.......

Good Points, but just one sin is enough reasonable doubt to get us off. We will have Judgment without mercy on Judgment day.

Faith in Jesus Christ, his death for our sins and his ressurection is what defines a Christian. All Christians continue to behave badly at times (sin) but we confess our sins and receive forgiveness. If we try to behave well to earn our place in heaven, without trusting in Christ we will fail.
