Side Note: I want to stress that a believer does not do things so as to be saved. That would be "Works Salvation", which is wrong. After a person repents of their sins and accepts Christ, they are changed spiritually so as to naturally do those things that are right (as listed above). However, God does not eliminate a person's "free will" once they make a "once time decision" to accept Christ. There is no teaching that God's people are forced to have salvation after they chose Him. Nor is their a teaching in Scripture that Christians are mindless puppets to their Master, either.

In other words, believers cannot abide in unrepentant sin and still be saved; And a person needs to genuinely repent of their sins in their acceptance of Christ and believe God and His Word with a pure heart. A person needs to study God's Word and let it take root within their heart. Then they are the type who has proven they of the Elect or one of God's chosen.
