James MacDonald: “Eternal Assurance: Five Marks of an Authentic Christian”
An authentic Christian increasingly:
- Loves deeply. As a true follower of Jesus Christ, you love God and others more as time goes on.
- Obeys faithfully. You used to do your own thing but since you’ve come to Christ, you’re now more concerned with what God wants you to do.
- Lives authentically. I just want to be real. A true follower of Christ says, No more games. I want an honest, transparent testimony of God at work in my life.
- Knows completely. A true follower of Christ isn’t content with surface knowledge of the Lord. The more you know Him, the more you want to know Him.
- Believes confidently. Confidence replaces anxiety and trust is swapped for fear in the life of the true follower of Christ.
