TEST of Any SALVATION That GOD Recognizes

3/25/2014

TEST OF any SALVATION that GOD recognizes - things others can SEE (if they are real in you) - lest there be any guessing or wishful thinking

Test of Salvation

1 John 1:6-7
New King James Version (NKJV)

6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness (shadows, lack of light of exposure and vulnerability, acting one way, thinking and acting in another way), we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

1 John 1:8-10
New King James Version (NKJV)

8 If we say that we have no sin (by seldom or ever coming into the Light of exposure, manipulating perception), we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

1 John 2:3-4
New King James Version (NKJV)

The Test of Knowing Him

3 Now by this we know that we know (“have intimacy with”) Him, if we keep His commandments. 4 He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

1 John 2:5-6
New King James Version (NKJV)

5 But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. 6 He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked (love, kindness, sacrifices, generosity, holiness, vulnerability, peace, sensitivity, faith, patience, abandonment to Father in all things).

1 John 2:9-11
New King James Version (NKJV)

9 He who says he is in the light, and hates (does not truly lay down his life for, from the heart) his brother, is in darkness until now. 10 He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. 11 But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes (and his perceptions and judgments of others are blinded by his own self-love and inaccurate).

1 John 2:15
New King James Version (NKJV)

Do Not Love the World

15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. (He is not saved if the things on his mind and on his lips continually are not about Jesus or His Kingdom, or the way he spends his or her time “grazing or browsing or relaxing” or the way he or she spends their money, or passion are not about Jesus and His Kingdom.)

1 John 2:17
New King James Version (NKJV)

17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever

1 John 2:19
New King James Version (NKJV)

19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us. (Hanging around does NOT a Christian make. The folly WILL be “evident to all” in time.)

1 John 2:23
New King James Version (NKJV)

23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. (If JESUS is not your all in all, but you leave open other ways to Heaven and the Father, alternate Truths to the Word of God, you do not have Salvation.)

1 John 2:24-27
New King James Version (NKJV)

24 Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides (lives in you, is your very habitat like the air you breathe) in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life. 26 These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you. 27 But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will[a] abide (lives in you, is your very habitat like the air you breathe) in Him.

1 John 2:29
New King James Version (NKJV)

29 If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him.

1 John 3:3
New King James Version (NKJV)

3 And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.

1 John 3:4-6
New King James Version (NKJV)

4 Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. 5 And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. 6 Whoever abides in Him does not (tolerate and continue in or excuse) sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.

1 John 3:8-9
New King James Version (NKJV)

8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

1 John 3:10-13
New King James Version (NKJV)

10 In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother. 11 For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another (lay down our lives in real and visible and sacrificial ways), 12 not as Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother’s righteous. 13 Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world hates you.

1 John 3:14-15
New King James Version (NKJV)

14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother (lay down our lives in real and visible and sacrificial ways) abides in death. 15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

1 John 3:16
New King James Version (NKJV)

16 By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brothers and sisters.

1 John 3:17-19
New King James Version (NKJV)

17 But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him? 18 My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. 19 And by this we know[a] that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him.

1 John 3:24
New King James Version (NKJV)

24 Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us. (If you don’t have the Evidences above of the Spirit, you are not Saved.)
