信耶稣后行为没有完全改变，还算得救吗？
If my behavior hasn't completely changed after believing in Jesus, am I still saved?
简答 Short Answer
得救不是靠行为完美，而是靠基督的义。信主后生命改变是渐进的过程（成圣），有挣扎是正常的。关键是看方向，不是看速度。
Salvation doesn't depend on perfect behavior but on Christ's righteousness. Life change after conversion is a gradual process (sanctification), and struggle is normal. The key is direction, not speed.
详细解答 Detailed Answer
这个问题困扰着许多基督徒，也是福音的核心所在。
**首先要明确：得救的根基是什么？** 得救不是靠我们的行为改变，而是靠基督在十字架上已经完成的工作。「你们得救是本乎恩，也因着信；这并不是出于自己，乃是神所赐的」（以弗所书2:8）。如果得救取决于行为的完美，那没有人能得救。
**但是，真正的信心必定带来改变：** 得救后生命会改变，但这个改变是渐进的，称为「成圣」。就像婴儿出生后会成长但不会一夜长大一样，属灵生命也需要时间成熟。
保罗自己也承认挣扎：「我所愿意的善，我反不做；我所不愿意的恶，我倒去做」（罗马书7:19）。如果使徒保罗都有这样的挣扎，我们更不必因为不完美而怀疑自己的信仰。
**区分两种情况：**
1. **有挣扎但有成长**：虽然还会犯罪，但内心为罪忧伤，渴望改变，生命整体方向是向着基督——这是正常的成圣过程。
2. **毫无改变且毫不在乎**：信主后完全没有任何改变的迹象，对罪毫无感觉，也不渴望亲近神——这需要认真省察自己的信心是否真实（雅各书2:17）。
恩典不是继续犯罪的许可证，但也不是以完美为条件的合同。在基督里，我们是安全的。
This question troubles many Christians and lies at the heart of the gospel.
**First, what is the foundation of salvation?** Salvation doesn't rest on our behavioral change but on Christ's finished work on the cross. 'By grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God' (Ephesians 2:8). If salvation depended on perfect behavior, no one could be saved.
**However, genuine faith will produce change:** Life does change after salvation, but this change is gradual — called 'sanctification.' Like a newborn who grows but doesn't mature overnight, spiritual life takes time to develop.
Paul himself admitted to struggle: 'The good I want to do, I do not do, but the evil I do not want to do — this I keep on doing' (Romans 7:19). If the apostle Paul experienced such struggle, we need not doubt our faith because of imperfection.
**Distinguish two situations:**
1. **Struggling but growing**: Still sinning, but grieved by sin, desiring change, with life's overall direction toward Christ — this is normal sanctification.
2. **No change and no concern**: Absolutely no sign of change after professing faith, no sensitivity to sin, no desire for God — this warrants serious self-examination of whether one's faith is genuine (James 2:17).
Grace is not a license to keep sinning, but neither is it a contract conditioned on perfection. In Christ, we are secure.
