Question, do others know that you are a Christian? I'm of the mind-set that we should not be Incognito Christians. How would I know if you're a believer? I would imagine at the time you gave your life to Christ within hours or days of you accepting Christ into your life you were challenged by satan. If your experience was anything like mine, I was getting thoughts like you're Not Saved. It's vital that you Believe, and Walk in your Salvation. Now, a Christian is anyone who has the Spirit Of God living in him and her. If you have sincerely Trusted Christ for your salvation and acknowledged him as Lord, then the Holy Spirit has come into your life, and you are a Christian. You won't know that the Holy Spirit has come if you are waiting for a certain feeling, you will know that he has come because Jesus Christ promised he would. When the Holy Spirit is working within you, you will believe that Jesus Christ is God's Son and that Eternal Life comes through him (1 John 5:5); you will begin to act as Christ directs (Romans 8:5; Galatians 5:22-23); you will find help in your daily problems and in your praying (Romans 8:26-27); you will be empowered to serve God and do his will (Acts 1:8; Romans 12:6ff); and you will become part of God's plan to build up his church (Ephesians 4:12-13). LAST POINT: Christianity is not limited to any race or group of people. Christ offers Salvation to all people without regard to nationality. God works all kinds of miracles to spread the gospel, using many languages as he calls all kinds of people to become his followers. No matter what your race, color,nationality, or language, God speaks to you. Those of you who call ourselves "Christians" we must realize that this means being Christ-Like. Are you Listening? Until Next Time... Jim,
