Are You a Christian?

IF NOT,

1. Is it because you fear what others may say of you?
“Whosoever shall be ashamed of me and my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed.” Luke 9:26.
2. Is it because professed Christians are inconsistent?
“Every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” Rom. 14:12.
3. Is it because you are unwilling to give up all to Christ?
“What is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul.” Matt. 16:26.
4. Is it because you are afraid that you will not be accepted?
“Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.” John 6:37.
5. Is it because you fear you are too great a sinner?
“The blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7.
6. Is it because you are afraid you will not hold out?
“The Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you and keep you from evil.” 2 Thess. 3:3.
7. Is it because you think that you will do as well as you can, and that God ought to be satisfied with that?
“No man is justified by the law in the sight of God.” Gal. 3:11.
8. Is it because you think Heaven can be reached without faith in Christ?
“Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12.
9. Is it because you are waiting for a more favorable time?
“Boast not thyself of to-morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.” Prov. 27:1.
The Bereans were more noble because they “searched the Scriptures daily, whether these things were so.” Acts 17:11.—Sel.
