The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace
~ Romans 8:6 ~
Believers may be disciplined by the Lord, but will not be condemned with the world. By Christ through faith, they are saved. Do you as a lifestyle choose the flesh or the Spirit, the old or the new nature, corruption or grace? For which of these do you give permission, by which are you controlled? 2 Corinthians 13:5 gives us instructions concerning this matter "Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you--unless, of course, you fail the test?
It is by grace through Christ and Christ alone that we are saved and not by good deeds, the evidence that you are saved is that what is inside your heart will come out in your actions and your words as you are led by the Holy Spirit, as the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace.
