”Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?” | 2 Corinthians 13: 5

One man described False or Counterfeit faith in this way:

1. It is never broken over its own sin.
2. It never hungers and thirsts for the blood and righteousness of Christ.
3. It never sees itself to be nothing.
4. It never bows to the absolute sovereignty of the Lord Jesus Christ.

True faith says:

1. “O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” (Romans 7: 24)
2. “Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.” (Psalm 51: 7)
3. “For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 4: 4)
4. “For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.” (2 Timothy 1: 12)
