6. In what state is thy soul Was God, while I am yet speaking, to require it of thee, art thou ready to meet death and judgement Canst thou stand in his sight, who is of "purer eyes than to behold iniquity" Art thou "meet to be partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light" Hast thou "fought a good fight, and kept the faith" Hast thou secured the one thing needful Hast thou recovered the image of God, even righteousness and true holiness Hast thou put off the old man, and put on the new Art thou clothed upon with Christ 7. Hast thou oil in thy lamp grace in thy heart Dost thou "love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy mind and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength" Is that mind in thee, which was also in Christ Jesus Art thou a Christian indeed, that is, a new creature Are old things passed away, and all things become new 8. Art thou a "partaker of the divine nature" Knowest thou not, that "Christ is in thee, except thou be reprobate" Knowest thou, that God "dwelleth in thee, and thou in God, by his Spirit, which he hath given thee" Knowest thou not that "thy body is a temple of the Holy Ghost, which thou hast of God" Hast thou the witness in thyself the earnest of thine inheritance Hast thou "received the Holy Ghost" Or dost thou start at the question, not knowing "whether there be any Holy Ghost" 9. If it offends thee, be thou assured, that thou neither art a Christian, nor desirest to be one. Nay, thy very prayer is turned into sin; and thou hast solemnly mocked God this very day, by praying for the inspiration of his Holy Spirit, when thou didst not believe there was any such thing to be received.
