Since obeying Jesus is a mark of a saved person, if a believer is not living a life obedient to Christ, the mark is (at least for a time) not there, and there is a legitimate question as to whether that person is really saved or not.
Kwa kuwa kumtii Yesu ni kielelezo cha mtu aliyeokolewa, kama muumini haishi maisha ya utiifu kwa Kristo, kielelezo hakiwepo (angalau kwa muda huo), na kuna swali halali la kuuliza endapo mtu huyu ameokolewa kweli au la.
