Bible Question (short): Faith that is self-centered? |
Question (full): AF, It should be noted that Jesus' performance is not in question, nor is his heart, etc. What is in question is the genuiness of one's own heart. If it is true that the heart is deceitful, how does one know for sure that they are really believing in Jesus with all the heart and that it is not, for example, a belief with ulterior motives or a belief that is self-centered, that is, mere desire and not true believing? |
