		<description><![CDATA[You must understand that in the book of James he explains it so beautifully, but many get it twisted. Your conversion, new birth, new creation in Christ Jesus will produce show evidence of that new birth by your works. Regeneration precedes faith. Not good works make my faith. That&#039;s the difference, if that be the case I would have something to boast about!!!; Colossians 1:10 So as to walk in a manner worthy of our Lord fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God!!!
May Yahweh&#039;s grace and peace be with you all.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This isn&#039;t about how God knows us. If God saved us I&#039;m pretty sure He&#039;s aware of that.  Macarthur has been accused of teaching &quot;works salvation&quot; but the command to examine ourselves so we can be sure we are in the Faith. (2 Corinthians 13:5) is the very obvious fruit of a person AFTER one has BEEN converted.  Scripture is clear that even the demons believe &quot;and shudder&quot; so simply saying &quot;I believe, therefore I have faith&quot; is nothing more than self-deception.  You may have missed the statement after the list... &quot;This is not just what happens at the beginning of conversion but it becomes an increasing pattern within the Christian&#039;s life&quot;. Point: These things are impossible to attain 100% but they are most certainly the HEART of a true Christian and the things he/she prays for because the goal is to glorify Him who saves. Most of the prayers hear/read from professing Christians are rarely spiritual but self serving and temporal... but not always.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Now listen carefully. If these don’t mark you, then I can’t tell if you’re a Christian and very likely, neither can you.”---John Macarthur

Have you ever met anyone that has consistently presented all of these alleged conversion-assurance fruit requirements? I mean, really.   

I can appreciate your individual journey toward understanding you are truly converted. However, if any person, if they&#039;re not deluded, but honest with themselves about their own journey, went strictly by the above criteria presented by you and Macarthur, should/would never be assured of their conversion. I&#039;m really afraid of what kind of Christians they&#039;d be if that is where their confidence and faith rested.   

Does God know us by our fruit or by our faith?]]></description>
