## Resource

How do you know if you are truly in the faith? In Episode 17, Part 2 of Bible Bites, Elder Q continues the conversation by walking through the biblical call to examine ourselves. 2 Corinthians 13:5 (NKJV) says, “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves…” This episode explores the evidences of genuine salvation from 1 John, including love for God, love for believers, obedience to Christ, hatred for sin, and a changed life. Not perfection — but transformation. Elder Q also explains what a person should do if they realize they have had religion without regeneration: repent, believe the gospel, surrender to Jesus Christ, and come to the Father in Jesus’ name. Key Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 13:5 1 John 5:13 1 John 4:19 1 John 3:14 1 John 2:3–4 1 John 3:9 1 John 1:8 Acts 3:19 Romans 10:9 Romans 10:13 John 16:23
