Pastor Daniel Batarseh presents three vital questions for spiritual self-assessment: stewardship of gifts, growth in grace and knowledge, and eternity-mindedness. This sermon provides a roadmap for believers to strengthen their relationship with Christ.

• 1Spiritual leaders have a 'divine jealousy' to keep God's people purely devoted to Christ.
• 2Every Christian is equipped with a gift that must be intentionally fanned into flame and used for the benefit of the church.
• 3Biblical knowledge is not just academic; it is the primary means through which God's grace and peace are multiplied in a believer's life.
• 4Being 'eternally minded' is a practical tool that helps believers put sin to death and treat others with Christ-like compassion.
• 5Spiritual self-assessment is a biblical practice used to align our ways with the Lord's will.
