Salvation’s not a one time transaction, it’s about experiencing the life of God here and now on earth.

When God enters our heart and our life it’s a noticeable affect. Romans 8:11-14 for all who are led by the Spirit of God our sons of God.

Chapter 2 Until Unity. When Jesus enters our life, our hearts we cannot help but to change 1 John 1:6 Did I say that this was an easy book to read? No it’s a book of examination, to sit and think about the real relationship that I have with Christ, and if I am a true example following Jesus 1 John 2:3-6.

Everyday I’m faced with decisions I have to make, the words that I speak, the way I act towards others, I ask myself;” am I abiding in him?” Because if I am, I should not be sinning: Being in fear, doubt, angry and indecisive. I shouldn’t be so afraid of trying to be perfect , perfect in his image, like Jesus.
Stop giving myself excuses. Being Christ like means that he has entered me, filled me with his love, and pour in his life out through me to other people around me.

So where is the bad influence coming from?
2 Corinthians 6:14 Francis Chan says; “ there is a fellowship of the lukewarm. They gather together to talk about previous church experiences that has let them down, caused them to sin and run from God. They find common ground in judging the radicals who dared to think that Christ calls everyone to deny themselves and pick up their cross.”

I long for the people that love Jesus and want to sit together talking about how God has blessed them. Tell me how God is your hero. And the fellowship between us is effortless.

God desires oneness with the body of believers. If they are not following the same Lord they cannot walk together Luke 9:23-24, Luke 9:62.

Down inside of you there is a desire to become more like Jesus and a willingness to sacrifice out of love for him, if you’ve ever read Acts 4:32-35 and wish the church would act like that again, it’s because he dwells in you. To have a church family that live and care for each other deeply.

So I will be that, I will love deeply, care for those around me and be Christ like. Ephesians 4:1-6.
