HOW TO SHOW THAT JESUS IS YOUR LORD

God accepts you as you are. God continually works in you, so you more and more show by your life that you a are a saved person. After you are saved, here is a simple description of how to show that Jesus is Lord: Read I John 5:3. Love is shown by ________________.   Since you have both a new life and old life, your actions will sometimes show that Jesus is Lord, and sometimes not. When your actions show that you have rebelled against Jesus as Lord, you are still a Christian, but you are a disobedient Christian. The Holy Spirit will produce guilt in you until you repent. When you turn to Christ for forgiveness, your relationship has been strengthened, and your new life will continue to become stronger.
