Assurance of Salvation According To Adrian Rogers

Adrian Rogers, in an article from the Christianity.com website "How do I know I'm saved?", gave us three tests from 1 John.

QUOTE
The Lordship Test. Is Jesus Christ the Lord of your life? Jesus said, "Why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? (Luke 6:46). Here's a riddle I want to solve for you. On the one hand the Bible says that we know that we're saved because we keep His commandments (See 1 John 2:3). On the other hand, the Bible teaches us that it is possible to sin (See 1 John 1:8-9). The key word is "keep". It is the same word used years ago by sailors who navigated by the stars at night. A sailor’s goal was to keep the stars. As a child of God, His commandments are the stars by which you navigate your life. Is keeping His commandments the burning desire of your heart? It is if you've met the Christ of Calvary.

The Fellowship Test. Do you love your brothers and sisters in Christ? The Bible challenges us on several occasions that this is the way we will know we are in Christ (1 John 3:14, 4:20, 5:1). When you get saved, you receive the divine nature of God and the nature of God is love (1 John 4:7). You're not saved because you love the brethren, you love the brethren because you're saved. Love is the nature of the Christian because love is the nature of God. If we love the Lord Jesus, it follows as night follows day that we are going to love what Jesus loves.

The Relationship Test. The question is not, "Did you believe in Jesus Christ?" The question is, rather, "Are you believing Jesus right now?" If you can't remember when you were saved, that's okay. 1 John 5:11-12 says, "And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life." Can you say that at this very moment, that you have a personal relationship with Jesus right now?
