THIRTY ONE DAYS OF BIBLE TRUTHS - DAY 10 (SELF-EXAMINATION)

BIBLE VERSE: Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you-- unless indeed you fail the test? (2 Corinthians 13:5)


TRUTH: Looking in the mirror of Faith and coming up blank (from Day 9) is serious business. The Word of God does implore us to do this for real….because both Heaven and Hell ARE real. There is no in-between, no purgatory and no “I-hope-so”. There is only I know what I know that I know or “that may work for you, but not for me”. The latter is the world’s response. Examining yourself to see if “you are in the Faith” is relatively easy. There is only one way to know. An authentic born-again believer knows he/she is  converted because the Very Same Spirit Who raised Christ from the Grave on Resurrection Morning lives in us.  He is not only sealed in us, He is Alive and waiting for us to obey. No Holy Spirit=No Conversion= No Testimony of that Glorious Day of Your Salvation…and that equals immediate Disqualification from Entry into the Kingdom of Heaven.  There is still time to examine and retest. God is waiting for such a one.
