Three Marks of a True Believer in Christ

100 Days of Preaching the Gospel #9

TEXT:James 2:17-20: "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?"

One of the most important questions that anyone can ask is, 'how can I know that I am saved?' What is the evidence that one is truly a son or daughter of God who has accepted Jesus Christ as Saviour. Today, we will look at three aspects of faith that show up in the life of a true believer in Jesus Christ.

I. First of all, I want you to notice that a true believer has a living faith.

II. Secondly, I want you to notice that a true believer has a faith that brings forth fruit.

III. Thirdly, today, I want you to notice that a true believer has a faith that gives peace.
