Thabiti Anyabwile, What is a Healthy Church Member?:
With a group of mature Christian church members and friends, use the following questions [for self-examination of your conversion] to consider and cite evidence of God’s grace among you and, if necessary, identify areas where grace is needed.
- Do we walk in the light or in the darkness (1 John 1:6-7)?
- Do we love God the Father or do we appear to love the world (1 John 2:15)?
- Do we love other Christians (1 John 3:14-15, 18-19; 5:1)?
- Do we have the testimony of the Holy Spirit that we are children of God (Rom. 8:15-16; Gal. 4:6; 1 John 3:24b)?
- Are we persevering in the faith (1 John 5:4-5)?
