Question 168: What is the Bible definition of a believer?

Answer:

A believer is (1) one who believes in Yeshua Moshiach the divine Son of YHVH and that through his life and atonement we have everlasting life; (2) the believer through his fellowship with Moshiach receives the adoption of a child of YHVH (see 1 John 3:2 and 5:1) ; (3) he enters into fellowship and communion with YHVH. See Hebrews 2:11, 16; 1 John 1:3; Proverbs 18:24. (4) He is sanctified and separated. See Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:14, 15; 1 Thessalonians 5:23. (5) He is a soldier. 1 Timothy 6:12; 2 Timothy 2:3, 4. (6) He is an heir of glory. Romans 8:17; Galatians 3:29; Galatians 4:7; Titus 3:7; 1 Peter 1:3, 4.
