Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you - unless, of course, you fail the test? And I trust that you will discover that we have not failed the test.
These verses are interesting to me b/c I've been spending sometime lately examining myself and my faith. I've been thinking specifically about my faith and if I "believe" in it enough to share it with those who don't know Christ or if I'm too scared of what they will say or how they will react. Paul says to the Corinthians, "do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you - unless, of course, you fail the test?" I pray that my fears will disappear and my faith will be found true as I remember that Jesus is in me and that God has given me a spirit of power, love and discipline (2 Tim 1).
