Do you believe in Christ?
Do you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, God over all, blessed forever (Romans 9:5)? Is he revealed in your soul? Do you know Jesus Christ and him crucified (1 Corinthians 2:2)? Does he dwell in you, and you in him (John 15:4)? Is he formed in your heart by faith (Galatians 4:19)? Having absolutely disclaimed all your own works, your own righteousness, have you submitted yourself to the righteousness of God, which is by faith in Christ Jesus (Romans 10:3)? Are you found in him, not having your own righteousness, but the righteousness which is by faith (Philippians 3:9)? And are you, through him, fighting the good fight of faith and laying hold of eternal life (1 Timothy 6:12)?

13. Dost thou believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, God over all blessed for ever? Is he revealed in thy soul? Dost thou know Jesus Christ and him crucified? Does he dwell in thee, and thou in him? Is he formed in thy heart by faith? Having absolutely disclaimed all thy own works, thy own righteousness, hast thou submitted thyself unto the righteousness of God, which is by faith in Christ Jesus? Art thou found in him, not having thy own righteousness, but the righteousness which is by faith? And art thou, thro’ him, fighting the good fight of faith, and laying hold of eternal life?
