"Becoming a true Christian results in a life that is dramatically different from the former life."
"A no-repentance gospel, a no-holiness gospel, a no-submission gospel, a no-transformation gospel is the devil's lie to give false security to damned people. So for the protection of the church from the false teaching agents of Satan, the New Testament is crystal clear on how you can determine whether one is a believer. And that is John's very specific purpose in writing so there's no mistaking the fact that true Christians are transformed people and their new life is very different than their former life."
"So when God transforms a soul, defiance is replaced by compliance. Rebellion is replaced by submission. Lawlessness is replaced by obedience. Hate for God's Law is replaced by love for God's Law. "
~John MacArthur
