An excerpt from "Bible.org" entitled, "2. Marks of Spiritual Maturity" by Gregory Brown, states: "Spiritual life has often been compared to walking upstream. If you are not progressing forward, then you are going backwards. The waves of the world are too powerful; the ungodly TV shows, the ungodly music, the depraved culture of this world are always seeking to push a believer backwards. Therefore, we must always seek to progress in our spiritual lives; otherwise, we will be spiritually declining." The author provides the following summary of what a mature Christian should look like:
1. A Mature Christian is Marked by Abounding Love.
2. A Mature Christian is Marked by Growing Knowledge.
3. A Mature Christian is Marked by Spiritual Discernment.
4. A Mature Christian is Marked by Spiritual Integrity.
5. A Mature Christian is Marked by Good Works.
6. A Mature Christian is Marked by Glorifying God.
