Evidences of Salvation

"...Faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself."  James 2:17


These works that evidence salvation go to the "heart" of the issue, not just actions...

  • Sincere love for the Lord
  • Repentance and a hatred for sin
  • A humble heart
  • Fruit of the Spirit
  • An active prayer life
  • Selfless love for others
  • Separation from the world
  • A holy (set apart) existence
  • Spiritual growth
  • Obedient living
  • The discipline of the Lord in our lives
Our works don't earn salvation - they evidence salvation.
