True believer! | |
Just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, you can also identify people by their actions (Matt. 7:20). The Holy Spirit produces good fruit in their lives; the lives of true Christian believers. Remember the old adage: actions speak louder than words. In other words, what a person does will tell you more about them than what they say. All verses below come from the KJV Bible. Some traits true believers display (those that follow the urgings of the spirit, they produce good fruit): Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Galatians 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Two more primary marks of a true believer are continuation in Christ’s word (obedience, see John 8:31); and chastening by the Lord of the true believer (in other words, there will be discipline, correction, etc. when necessary; kiss the paddle and move on). Some desires of true believers: To please God, to do His will, not their own will; to know God's word by studying that word, they truly seek Him; to be with God's people [assemble, fellowship] when possible; to share the Gospel with those that need it; to overcome sin; to be a good example for others in the hope of them seeing what you have and wanting it too. Some traits that unbelievers display (those that do works of the flesh, bad fruit): Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Galatians 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Galatians 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. Become a fruit inspector, not a judge. God is our one and only true judge. Food for thought: Do you see any of the above unbeliever traits today in 2024+? All you have to do is watch the daily news, read a newspaper or observe with your own eyes. Is this a complete description of true believers and unbelievers? No, but the Bible is. Read and study for yourself. Don't trust me or any other human, trust God. What you believe will determine how you live. There is only one truth you can count on eternally and that is truth straight from God’s Word. If someone says something is true, verify it is true or false by checking it out in God’s Word. This responsibility falls on each of us; see 1 John 4:1. Many people claim to be Christian; are they all telling the truth? Read the following verses for your answer; this is Jesus Christ speaking here: Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. [Not everyone who professes to be a Christian will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. You must be doing the will of God, not the will of man]. My thoughts and questions follow: Want to be a true Christian? Learn the will of God. Study and contemplate scripture, pray, discuss them with other believers, etc. on a continuous basis. It takes action on your part; put your heart completely into it, seek His Kingdom first. Again, study God's word completely and continuously learn the truth [John 17:17]. Learn what Christ's doctrines are and support the teaching of His doctrines only [2 John 1:9-11]. Share those doctrines with non-believers when possible. True Christianity is wonderful; it is a reality. It is not a religion, or playing church, or a weekly ritual or a tradition of man; please don’t be guilty of just playing church. Learn the standards of God and do them to the best of your ability. | |
