Let me describe two types of people
who are only fooling themselves about their salvation.
The first type are people who claim Jesus. But they don’t live a repentant life. They think they’re repentant because they tell God their sorry. But they’re just sorry for getting caught or suffering consequences. They want to improve, but they don’t really bow the knee to Jesus, they just tip the hat. They acknowledge him, but they don’t serve him. They’re not born again.
The second type lives a “good, moral, religious life.” But they don’t live a humble life. They think they’re humble because they thank God for “living right.” But they’re counting on that to save them. They try to serve God, and they serve other people, but they think they’re better because they do better. Jesus describes people who do a lot of stuff, but their faith isn’t in him, it’s in them. They’re not born again.
Are you born again?
