Doctrines Concerning
Salvation
H. That when an individual accepts Jesus Christ in salvation that there is a change in their life.
2Co 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.Personal Opinion:
We people are such hypocrites, It is hard to tell a true conversion from a person playing the role of a converted Christian.
We want so much to be accepted that we may not even realize the truth in our self.
The Twelve Step Program has a slogan: "fake it till you make it".
I never heard that Christians should use that method. However, it would seem to me right to do right no matter what the motive. Certainly there can never be a justification to knowingly chose to do evil.
