Realization and Resolution

The realization:

I can't live like other men and call myself a Christian.

The resolution:

I will not live like other men; I will be who I am in Christ.

If I keep trying to do as I have always done, then the results will be the same.  Or rather, they will actually be worse- if I know what is right and choose not to do it, it will be worse for me
  • (No sacrifices can be made for people who decide to sin after they find out about the truth. They are God's enemies, and all they can look forward to is a terrible judgment and a furious fire.  - Hebrews 10:26-27 CEV
  • If you don't do what you know is right, you have sinned.  - James 4:17 CEV
  • If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. But now they have no excuse for their sin.  - John 15:22 CEV )
 The new creature has a new attitude, a new purpose, and a new name

  • Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.  - Philippians 2:5-7 NASB
