True grace in the heart.

Some questions posed by Jonathan Edwards in Charity and its Fruits:
  • Has your supposed grace such influence as to render those things in which you have failed of holy practice, loathsome, grievous, and humbling to you?
  • Do you carry about with you, habitually, a dread of sin?
  • Are you sensible to the beauty and pleasantness of the ways of holy practice?
  • Do you find that you do particularly esteem and delight in those practices that may, by way of eminence, be called Christian practices, in distinction from mere worldly morality?
  • do you hunger and thirst after a holy practice?
  • Do you make a business of endeavoring to live holily, and as God would have you, in all respects?
