8 Symptoms of backslides
- Growing cold toward the things of God
- Giving up the life of faith
- Losing sight of eternity
- Becoming self-centered and worldly
- Being overtaken by the cares of life
- Being hypersensitive and easily offended
- Being reactive and critical
- Surrendering to some besetting sin(s)
The meaning of backsliding I believe is "To slide back to the original position where you don't have God." Remember nobody backslide overnight. They usually backslide gradually. Maybe coming for CG and SVS 3 times a week then slowly reduce their attendance. If any one of you know a friend or even you yourself have 2 or 3 such symptoms, do seek advice from your leader.
2 possible manifestation of a backslides.
1. Totally indifferent
2. Always complain
