Are you making changes in your life as proof of your salvation? If you claim you've received salvation and continue to live the same way you did before, you may have a problem. Our love for Jesus and our gratefulness for what He did for us, makes us want to turn our life around and live for Him. If you've truly accepted Him, your life will reflect Him. Jesus was not aggressive, but He wasn't a pushover either. Jesus did not treat others with disrespect nor was His tone harsh or condescending. If you have unforgiveness in your heart, yet you think you've been forgiven by God, you need to check your salvation. If you pick out the bad parts of a Christian's life, and believe me we are not perfect, and choose that portion to relate to rather than compare yourself to Jesus, you may have a problem. Just because you call yourself a Christian doesn't make you one. It's a change of heart and a change of direction. 

And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses." Mark 11:25
