Ethanol in gasoline is really bad for old motorcycles and old lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, trimmers, etc. It tends to foul the carburetor or block the fuel injector. I was very faithful to only buy 100% gasoline for my motorcycle, but after encountering some injector problems, I began to wonder if I was blinded. How do you know that natural gas does not contain ethanol? 

Some online research has produced a simple test program. It is called the "food coloring" test. Small aircraft pilots use it for ethanol testing; ethanol is very dangerous for pilots because it freezes at higher altitudes. You only need to buy some food coloring at the grocery store.

Put a small amount of "suspicious" gas into a small glass jar, such as a baby food jar. Put a few drops of food coloring in it and shake it well. Let it sit for a few minutes. If food coloring is evenly dispersed throughout the gas and presents a uniform hue, then gasoline must contain ethanol. Ethanol will attract and mix with food coloring.

However, if those few drops of dye settle into small drops at the bottom of the tank without adequate mixing, then you have 100% gasoline. Water-based dyes are not compatible with gasoline-they cannot be mixed.

As a result, I have been buying expensive "non-ethanol" gasoline, but it is cheaper ethanol blended gasoline. This is an extortion, making a lot of money for the gas station owner.

I thought about the simple test of becoming a true Christian-anyone can easily say that they are a Christian, but how do you know that they are a "real deal", or, more worryingly, how do we know that we are Christian? "The real deal"? There is actually a test. In 2 Corinthians 13:5, the apostle Paul teaches us "Always check for yourself whether you have faith; try it yourself." 

Paul's audience is really a mess. Members of the Corinthian church sued each other; arguing about which minister to follow; some used money to deceive their Christian brothers; some colluded with prostitutes; some were drunk with sacrament wine; some were at the sacrament feast Gobbled it up and didn't care if other people left hungry; a guy was having sex with his stepmother. Next time you hear someone say "I want a church like the Bible times", think about this. 

Paul's "test" includes seeing whether they are willing to change their ways and get rid of their sinful behavior after receiving his severe warning. If they are unwilling to try wholeheartedly, then they "failed the test"-they are hypocrites, just claiming to be true Christians. True Christians have the Holy Spirit living in it; once they realize that they are sinning, the Holy Spirit fills their hearts with guilt, leading them to repent and change their behavior. Hypocrites without the Holy Spirit usually don't really feel guilty—they just feel sorry for being caught. 

1 John 3:10 quotes the "test" in this way: "This is how we know who is the child of God and who is the child of the devil: whoever does wrongdoing is not a child of God; nor does he love his brother. "The test involves obedience, and the main indicators of obedience are love for God and love for others.

This "test" really runs counter to the "don't judge me" culture we currently live in. It is very popular to say "Yes, I believe in Jesus" and then live as you want. If you advocate a "live, let live" philosophy and condemn anyone who questions your guilty lifestyle, then others have the right to doubt whether you have failed the test.

How dare I evaluate those gas station owners! If they say they sell 100% gasoline, shouldn't I believe them? If someone says they are Christians, no matter how they live, no matter how many people they hurt, shouldn't we believe them? If you really want to regard "love" as the primary value of your generation, then saying "you are fine and on the way to heaven" is a very uncaring thing, but in fact they are deceiving themselves and cannot pass test. According to Jesus, the eternal punishment is real. This is similar to yelling to a kayaker who paddled to a 100-foot waterfall, "You are doing well, keep going!" "
