When a person becomes a Christian, he or she is essentially “reborn” - a new life has begun and the person has been created anew. This morning, we’re doing a “Christological test” - compare yourself to Christ to see where your relationship with him is at. Are you different than how you used to be? Do you recognize Christ in your life? Do others? When we find ourselves feeling guilty and wrestling over our sin, that is a sign that Christ is alive within us.

• Have you changed for the better? Have others seen change in you?
• People shouldn't recognize the new you. 
• No one who is a Child of God sins freely. 
• Those who pass the Christological test are influencers. They aren't influenced.
• If God's Seed is in you, righteousness will bloom and thrive in your life.
