Ward, thanks for a meaningful post. This will provide some good discussion on the subject from the other thread, "How does a Christian know that he/she IS a Christian?". We know it from this that Paul says. John indicates an element of obedience and an element of God-like love is also involved.

3. But is there any necessity laid upon us of running either into one extreme or the other? May we not steer a middle course? -- keep a sufficient distance from that spirit of error and enthusiasm, without denying the gift of God, and giving up the great privilege of his children? Surely we may. Ward - where was he going in this regard - Im not sure I understand his point. How can you be anything but emphatic once have recieved the Spirit?
Revelation 3:16 So, because you are lukewarmneither hot nor coldI am about to spit you out of my mouth.
