to prove his faith to himself

If you have to defend your faith to prove it, then is your faith well founded? My faith is proven by benefit, my faith brings benefit into my life and I see it everyday.

guess you dont need to defend yours then

That would be silly. What works for me may not work for you, so I have no need to compare what I do to others.

Why would you need to defend your faith?

That's why the Apostles needed to remind us that we must stand firm and hold steadfast to the teachings of Jesus against deceiving spirits and doctrines.

How can you tell the difference since you said that the "Fruits of the Spirit" can also be from Satan....

The Ultimate test is Love and the fruits of the Spirit "And this is how you'd know them."

As a human, God's people can still be tempted by Satan... in various ways. As how Satan tempted Jesus.

Standing, standing your ground makes sense to me, but defending, to me, means to attack your enemy. So maybe its just semantics. I stand my ground and will not let the wind blow me over, but I do not strike at the wind. When Jesus was tempted by Satan, he never attacked Satan, he talked to Satan and used logic and when he was done he told Satan to go away.

Also, you may stand for God, but to defend God is like a flea defending you, it can't be done.

What do you think did Christ do when people [apparently considered 'enemies'] messed up the Temple of God? What do you think did Apostle Paul do in the land of Gentiles? How did they defend the truth? Surely, they didn't just stand firm and hold steadfast to the words of God entrusted to them. There was a deepest secret Jesus has revealed to His people. That's what we are defending of.

By TRUTH and by TESTIMONY. By RIGHTEOUSNESS and by PROPHECY. 🙂

Actually, the Bible says about two ways. By TRUTH and by TESTIMONY (also by Righteousness and by Prophecy). You've read the Bible, no need for me to elaborate how the Bible has interpreted that. 🙂
Hmmm... I acknowledge your own opinion. If I seemed to be "attacking", well that's your prerogative. I can't please everybody. That's my limitation. I guess, you never know how is it to be a TRUE Christian. It is not a question about someone's being Christ-like.

You can tell the truth of a person's religion by the way the person is.

Like the Centurion? 🙂

I'm going to say the wrong thing to you, so it is best that I do not talk to you. Goodbye.

Well, I don't care how you'll do your stuff.

MAY the True God bless you. 😇

You know too little about Christians, yet you're too confident to think you do

MAY the True God bless you

Hmmm... well sorry. I'm sure no chance for you. 😊

God surely never blessed you and never will. 😛

Anyway, I still respect those little thoughts of yours fins. 🙂
