In Christ?

Are you in Christ? Take a spiritual check up. Are you:

  • Practicing sex outside of marriage?
  • Satisfying lustful pleasures?
  • Having outbursts of anger?
  • Getting drunk?

Anyone one of these means this:

19Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality,20idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21envy,d drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who doesuch things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Galatians 5

Wait! Am I saying if you do any of these you’re not a Christian? I’m not, but Paul is implying that! 

So how do you know you’re a Christian? By fruit!

. 22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

Galatians 5

Which list is you? If it’s not the latter list, then repent because you’re not headed to heaven yet.

I’m a child of God who has found joy and peace in Jesus, the King of the universe. He alone is worthy of all praise and glory. I’m a bivocational pastor and vegan who crochets and talks all things Jesus.
