💥 Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: There will always be false conversions, apostates, and believers who all claim that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior. The truth all boils down to this: Are you truly living sanctified lives in Christ? Is your life truly on the path that leads to eternal life? Today, as I share my testimony of my false conversion before really and truly turning my life over to the Lord, we will seek out the difference between a false convert, an apostate, and a believer. Always remember this biblical truth: when we honor the Lord and obey His commands, we reap the benefits of living honorably, morally, and honestly. Let’s look at the difference between a false convert, an apostate, and a true follower/believer of the Lord Jesus Christ:
(1) False Convert: A false conversion is not a true conversion, and can be the result of intentional deception or the person not realizing it. A false conversion may appear to be a true conversion, but it lacks the submission to Christ, obedience, and fruit of repentance.
(2) Apostate: An apostate is someone who has rejected or abandoned their religion, or more generally, their principles, cause, or organization. The term comes from a Greek word that means "to stand away from.”
(3) Believer & Follower of Jesus Christ: We put off the “old man” and put on the “new man,” newly created in Christ Jesus. To truly follow Christ means He has become everything to us. We listen, follow, and obey our Good Shepherd. Believing in Jesus means obeying Jesus in every aspect of our lives! Following Jesus means striving to be like Him. He always obeyed His Father, so that’s what we strive to do. To truly follow Christ means to deny ourselves and take our cross daily. All this is accomplished as we allow the Holy Spirit to have complete control of every area of our lives.
Take an honest look at your life to see where you are in your walk with Christ to see if you have a sincere, serving, abiding relationship with God the Father and His Son. See if you are grieving the Holy Spirit with your disobedience and falling away. Many have never experienced the “new birth” because they were not truly converted, they still practice sin habitually and willfully and have never come to repentance. Some were “born-again” but they later rejected and abandoned Lord Jesus and started to serve other “gods” and run after the things in the world rather than remaining and enduring all things in Christ. Some truly are children of God, they no longer practice sin consistently but strive daily to live a life that is Spirit-filled and led. They keep their focus on Lord Jesus anticipating His soon return as their Bridegroom. They seek to live a life that is honorable, righteous, and holy in the sight of God.
Which are you?
🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!
