So I guess we need to look at the fruit or evidence, after all James said James 2:14–18 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

Great Sermon! Conviction is a kiss of love from God although that arthur you quoted needs to be in an asylum. Some good points in here. I've heard it said that the condition if our country today has a direct connection to the pulpit and the decades of hollow preaching devoid of repentance and holiness. Think the woman caught in adultery was a complete set up by the Pharisees. What they intended for evil God turned to good for that woman. Keep preaching it brother.
