False: The focus is inward
Real: The mind is on what is pleasing to the Lord
False: The mind is on what pleases self and the world
Real: Rejoices in suffering for the right reasons
False: Creates suffering for the wrong reasons
Real: Focus is on what is
False: Focus on what seems
Real: Thinking increasingly on the eternal
False: Thinking fixed on the temporal
Real: Sees the Lord's admonition as a blessing
False: Sees the Lord's admonition as an attack upon temporal comfort
Real: Loves godly people because they are godly
False: Doesn't inwardly like godly people

Real: Edifies others in order to serve
False: Flatters others in order to gain
Real: Sees service and righteousness as duties, done to please God and build others up
False: Sees service and righteousness as own personal goodness, done to gain something temporal
Real: Seeks to create unity amongst the saints and be separate from the world
False: Seeks to be unified with the world at the expense of the truth
Real: Lives a more-or-less consistent life before the Lord
False: Lives a divided life
Real: Repents of sin, looking for ways to destroy it
False: Justifies sin, looking for ways to keep it
Real: Not easily fooled by appearances
