the act of examining one's own conduct and motives. It is a duty commanded by God (2 Corinthians 13:5), and, to result favorably, should be deliberate, frequent, impartial, diligent, wise, and with a desire of amendment. In self examination reference should always be made to the Word of God as the rule of duty.
