Welcome to the Christian Soul Test
The Bible asks us to test ourselves. The Soul Test uses Scriptures from the Bible to help us get a clear picture of the condition of our soul. It also helps us to create a personalised plan of action to overcome any ungodliness and enhance godliness in us. “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. But I trust that you will know that we are not disqualified.” 2 Cor 13:5-6
This simple test has been developed to help you see specifically what the condition of your soul is and what it looks like to be walking in the divine nature of God. The test was created by selecting key character traits spoken of in the bible (both good and bad), giving an easy to read, birds eye view of both the word, the strongs definition of the word and its meaning.
Go through each page, learning about the different character traits and write down your areas for personal growth. Following the flesh vs Spirit lists, is a basic overview of key lusts we find in the world today and how to spot when something becomes an idol in your life. After this section is a visual reminder of the Biblical armor of God, the process of sanctification, becoming a container for God’s Spirit and a list of scriptures relating to prayer, worship, joy and being led by God’s Spirit. You can create your own customised plan for success using the worksheet pages. The worksheets included can be printed out and filled in or edited via an editing software. By the end of this workbook, we hope that you will have identified your strengths and weaknesses as well as put a personalised plan in place for your future growth.
We serve our humble and loving King, Jesus Christ, who has accepted us all into His kingdom saying “All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.” Joh 6:37. Remember that “…by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Eph 2:8-9. Salvation is not something we can earn, it is a gift from God, but God also desires that we walk in holiness, set ourselves apart from the world, renew our minds and learn what God’s good, acceptable and perfect will is: “…present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” Rom 12:1-2. “For this is the will of God, your sanctification…” 1 Thes 4:1.
