In today's churches, it's essential to discern who is genuinely born again. This sermon explores the biblical marks of a true believer, the consequences of neglecting true salvation preaching, and the transformative power of embracing genuine salvation.

Marks of a Truly Born-Again Believer

1. Conviction of Sin (John 16:8-9): A born-again person acknowledges their sinfulness and need for redemption.

2. Repentance (Acts 2:38): True believers turn away from sin and towards God.

3. Faith in Jesus Christ (John 3:16): Born-again individuals trust in Jesus' sacrifice for salvation.

4. New Creation (2 Corinthians 5:17): Genuine believers experience a transformed life, marked by love, joy, and obedience.

5. Fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23): True believers exhibit the characteristics of the Holy Spirit's presence.

Consequences of Neglecting True Salvation Preaching

1. False Converts: Without clear preaching, some may claim salvation without genuine conversion.

2. Lack of Transformation: Neglecting true salvation preaching can lead to unchanged lives.

3. Watered-Down Gospel: Failing to emphasize salvation's necessity dilutes the Gospel's power.

4. Spiritual Complacency: Congregations may become complacent, neglecting spiritual growth.

5. Eternal Consequences: Misleading people about salvation can lead to eternal separation from God.

Transformative Power of Embracing Genuine Salvation

1. True Freedom (John 8:36): Born-again believers experience liberation from sin's bondage.

2. New Life (2 Corinthians 5:17): Genuine salvation brings a transformed life, marked by love and obedience.

3. Assurance of Salvation (1 John 5:13): True believers have confidence in their eternal destiny.

4. Passionate Worship (Psalm 100:4-5): Born-again individuals worship with sincerity and joy.

Preachers prioritize preaching the true salvation of God! Neglecting this fundamental message has severe consequences. Embracing and preaching genuine salvation brings freedom, transformation, and assurance. Let us return to the biblical emphasis on true salvation, that we may see genuine conversions and transformed lives.
