The Tests of Conversion

False converts resulting from a superficial Gospel and an ignorance of biblical assurance is one of the most deadly maladies facing the contemporary church. Countless individuals fill our pews who profess Christ and yet have never experienced the saving power of the Gospel. How can we keep from being deceived? How can we know that we are truly converted? Fortunately, God has not left us to rely upon our own wisdom or the ever-changing opinions of men. He has given to us the Scriptures that are able to make us wise unto salvation, and upon which, we may obtain a biblical assurance of salvation.

    Wooooow I cried because of this sermon it is true I want to be transformed in such a way that I am Disgusted by sin not by those who do sin because I am one who was living in sin and changed every single day. May God be with me and guide me, correct me Amen, let it be Amen

    ​@@bboynewsboy991I can tell you I died. I know he's real. Before I died days before the doc was to start the contractions I felt a need to repent of sins because the thought of dying wouldn't let me rest. I heard my heart monitor flat line and thought Well I guess I'm dead. I heard the doctor say, We're losing her! We're losing her! I began to go through the roof and then through this golden tunnel. I found myself being held in God's gigantic hands. I felt so warm and loved. God spoke to me in my mind and says, You can stay but if you do your daughter will have no one. He showed me a picture of my oldest daughter at 6 yrs old. I was so struck with sadness but I wanted to stay so bad. I asked the Lord what he wanted me to do because I wanted to so please the Lord. He turned his hand over that I was stuck to and threw me back into my body. It hurt. The jarring motion caused my heart to beat. I gasped and then heard my heart monitor pick up my heart beat. I felt such peace knowing I could have stayed. Look at the majority of NDEs that people have had and compare how they all share common things about heaven. A place of no shadows..flowers, nothing dead on flowers, beautiful beyond imagination. This is not mathematically possible because they don't know each other so they couldn't collude their stories. Think about that. I am only saying this because I love you and don't want you to suffer in hell for not accepting God's Mercifully Offered Salvation and Eternal Life. ❤️🌹

    @@bboynewsboy991 That's why faith is important. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. You dont realize it, but your faith is strong, so strong you do not believe God exists, even when the evidence all around you proves that fact. You must rememeber, Nothing plus Nothing cannot equal everything..... This earth and universe, all that inhabit it are and were Intricately designed. Keep studying the Bible, pray to Jesus, he will come to you.... But if your mind is made up, you are doomed to perish. The Bible makes all of this quite clear. Without the shedding of Blood, there is no remission of sins. Jesus Christ was the Sacrificial lamb, and has risen.

    It's been a year since the last time I felt the fire of serving the people of God, its because I'm struggling to find a church who have the love and consistency preaching who GOD is. Now, I'm so glad and glory to GOD ALONE that he leadeth me to a church who undoubtedly believe that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God unto salvation, when I found out that they're looking for people who is called to serve his people, I feel convicted, I have been thinking about it over and over again. I heard how they preach, I've seen in my own eyes and heard with my own ears thier faith in the Gospel. Please kindly pray for me that may the will of God be done, for his own glorification, for his name sake. In my soul, I feel home with this body of Christ, my heart fill with gladness and peace being with them. I'm also amazed to discover having this growing love and desire of serving his people again. Thanks much

There so many reasons to have tears of Joy and Gratitude.

    It’s insane how you can fool yourself in thinking you can be just like the world and still be radical for Christ. It’s not natural to see the vanity and pride of living for yourself and the day I started to see the ugly nature of my own sin- it gave me a mental breakdown and that’s when Jesus saved me. True conversion is radical and it will change us.

    This man is sincere. Just be sure your heart is open to the Truth God is speaking today. Sin is unbelief and the Church is built on the rock of revelation. Man is his hybrid nature CANNOT obey God's laws, that's why he needs the power of transformation which is inherent in the preaching of the Word present tense by God called men and it is the Spirit that quickens the Word, gives Life and transforms men to the image of God. This is the real power of the Blood, friends. Outside of that, you're only impersonating christianity. Repent means change your mindset. Come out of her, my people, is still valid today!

Rend your inner person not your garments....Read the Bible to see if you want this God as your God forever and no one else. Find a church with sound doctrine and strong humble Bible only leadership and discuss your experiences with them. But if His Spirit convicts you at any time, He will cause you to respond the most genuine way, strictly according to God's word the bible . We must Be Gennao Anothen, 'Born from Above'.

    Really interesting preach this, the whole preach is about sanctification not salvation. I get his points about loving God's law and wanting to abide but I think your in dangerous grounds if you base your salvation on your sanctification, were saved through belief alone not through how much sin I personally eradicate from my life. The biggest red flag for me isn't "fruit" it's how often are you actually reading, and studying the Bible. You can only obtain what Paul is talking about through a love of God's Word! It's his word which renews us.
