I find in my experience with people who claim to be born again that they can look and play the part well, but at some point of spending time around them I see through The Spirit

It's not hard to tell if one is a Christian, what comes out of someone defines there God, A true Christian will always be talking about their Jesus, not the world or the things of the world.

Whatever is happening in my life externally, whether good or bad is a true reflection of what is happening internally.That is why I have to guard my heart with all diligence because my heart is a production centre for my life according to Proverbs 4;23
