Examine Yourselves

by Mike Bennett

2 Corinthians 13:5  

Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.

Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified (2 Corinthians 13:5).
The apostle Paul encouraged the Christians in Corinth to examine themselves, to test whether they were allowing Jesus Christ to live in them. Self-examination should be a regular part of the Christian life of change. It is a vital aspect of the conversion process.

See our Discern magazine article “‘Examine Yourselves’: What Does It Mean to Be Disqualified?” for a deeper study of this passage.

For more about self-examination and conversion, see the articles in the section on “Christian Conversion.”
