.
Christlikeness:- Deep sinless purity inside/outside, humility,meekness,temperance,longsuffering,patience,dead to ungodly worldly fashions,not vengeful,no malice,no anger.
.
Just a minutest few existing possess christlikeness by 80%,some are close by 60%,so many possess less than 50% in percentage of each of the above qualities.
.
The rest that believe in a false grace don't care & lack almost all the above qualities.They possess most or all of the characters outlined in the OP.
.
They believe grace means that Christ has done it all and they have nothing more to do and so they live their lives as they please with hopes to make heaven at the end by a false grace.

Re: how can we know a true christain today by Oyinprince(m): 9:09pm On Dec 12, 2013
Now, spikin in tongues doesnt mean u r automatically maturd as a xtian and it isnt just for some "Holy" set of xtians lyk sum pple blive. It is actualy a tool to build u up,so even baby xtians suld be d ones to spik in tongues more

the way the pastor said it,twas obvious that was the tradition and speaking in tongue is a programme on their weekly order of service!
Re: how can we know a true christain today by Oyinprince(m): 9:13pm On Dec 12, 2013
An unbeliever does NOT believe talkless of spiking in tongues, hes mite mock or pretend. So, sum1(who is a believer) wu does not luk "Perfect" to u mite spik in tongues
