“Your own deeds seem so imperfect that they could never prove that I was born again.” That’s what your conscience is telling you.Now, when the born-again person experiences this — and we do. We broke God’s Law. Isn’t this ultimately between God and the individual concerned?) I’m a 19 year old from Australia and I just got a few questions I wanna ask. It was at that moment, when Jesus took ALL of mankind’s sin upon Himself, and when God the Father broke fellowship for the first time in eternity past or future with His Son that Jesus’s own flesh cried out, reciting Psalm 22.

I am thrilled that you like it and I checked out your website. Question: "Can a person believe in some sense but not be saved?" For 33 years, he served as pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis, Minnesota. Without repentance there is no need of a Savior.A)We must repent(by the way, that was Jesus’s first word to us when He began His public ministry(“From then on Jesus began to preach, “Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.” Mt 4:17), B)then “Confess” Christ is Lord with your mouth and believe that God raised Him from the dead(If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Then force…it will be extremely hard…but FORCE yourself to stand up, away from the computer, grab your rope and start jumping, until you are exhausted.2) Keep some bottled water around your room. That’s the function of 1 John 3:9 in the Spirit-indwelt, regenerate heart. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. 1 You feel perfectly AT HOME, in this world . This is why Jesus commanded us to If this article has made you doubt your salvation or whether you are truly a Christian or not, then I say good! Those “fruits of works” are “…love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self control”(Gal 5:22,23). God’s own Spirit indwelling you. Reading your comment, I feel that you are because you are concerned about it.

Thank you for your ministry.How can you tell a false convert from a person who is need of repentance. I will go for a long time and never even think about assurance of salvation, but then it will come down on me like a ton of bricks. The”world” in Jn 3:16(references its inhabitants), since the latter half of the verse makes that clear by defining the world by using the word “whosoever”. That’s not the new birth. I am so glad this was helpful. The world does not understand faith but they do understand good works. You are so encouraging and hey, that might be one of the signs of a true conversion…that someone is encouraging, exhorting, and edifying….because you are all three brother!I take issue with the entire premise of this article. You are loved by me but infinitely more by God. how can you see a Christian’s bank reports? The glory of adoption is that we now receive an inheritance from God, and the best inheritance he could give us is himself. Many profess to be Christ’s but do they possess Christ?

No offense meant. Have you read Psalm 88?

Can that be found in the Bible?

We must be convicted of our sin!

God bless you and your family and I hope to read more of your helpful articles again.WHEN I READ IT ALL THE SIGNS / WHAT THE BIBLE DESCRIBES A TRUE CONVERT CONFIRMS THAT I WAS FIRST FALSLY CONVERTED BUT THEN I STARTED TO TRULY SEEK CHRIST AND I GOT TRULY SAVED AND I’VE BEEN TRULY CONVERTED SINCE THENWhy do we except we will sin less? So, here you are, like all normal 19 year old males, with this burning need/desire for sex because testosterone is coursing through your veins.

Another writer states it well, ” Isaiah chapter fifty, verse seven states, “I have set my face like a flint.” This is a statement of courage with a firm commitment to accomplish what God had sent Him to do, in spite of all the scorn and hatred heaped upon Him.

You can certainly call me Jack or Pastor but I appreciate your respect my friend using Mr. so use whatever title/name you wish my brother in Christ. You are sinking down in fear and discouragement and even despair that your righteousness and your love for people and your fight against sin could ever be good enough — good enough even to demonstrate your new birth.We all know theologically it can never be good enough to save us, but 1 John says you’re not born again unless there’s evidence in your life. So, those are the two things he does for us: warns us against hypocrisy over here, and celebrates the advocate and the propitiation over here.How do they function in the born-again heart? Then, throw at least half a cup in your face and on the back of your neck and rub as you walk and walk around the room. At last count there are about 7 billion of us out here, and we all struggle with sin, Christian or not.You occupy a very unique subset of our population though, and that is….you are male and 19 years of age.

In the past, society was also more agricultural(more farms) so men would exhaust themselves in the fields during the day, thereby depleting much of that testosterone from their bodies. If I tithe and give money to the local church, that is all well and good but what is further than that? You didn’t even know it was happening. Can I ask you, “Do you not sin any more?” Have you not sinned in the last 24 hours? Life-directing aim.
