In this article, I will briefly give you some keys you can use to determine a matured Christian. Christianity is not about age or colour. Real Christianity emanates from the heart of the person and shows up from the body. The experience of the Christian is a bonus that adds up to the maturity of the Christian. A Christian can be twenty years of age and still be older than a seventy-year-old Christian because maturity is measured by the capacity of the person's spirit.
Christianity is a life of the Spirit because the ultimate shepherd is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the guide to every believer. We must not exalt experience above the Word because the Word is unbreakable. The Word is above our experiences of life. Life experience may show us some aspects of God (ways and acts).
When the Word is active in your spirit, you always know of the Holy Spirit and when you are conscious of the Spirit; you create a connection with the Trinity. These are some keys you can use to determine if a Christian is matured.
