A self-proclaimed Christian whose life looks no different than before Christ is likely not a true follower of Christ. That may sound like a strong judgment, but this truth is stressed in multiple places throughout Scripture, as Pastor Bill will point out in today’s message. When Christ comes into your life and saves you from sin, He’s not just saving you from its eternal consequences – He’s saving you from its oppression right here and now. Your gratitude should motivate you to puts those old selfish ways to death.
