Does your behavior impact whether or not God hears your prayers?

Matt 5:45 (CEV) "Then you will be acting like your Father in heaven. He makes the sun rise on both good and bad people. And he sends rain for the ones who do right and for the ones who do wrong."

If everything is already predetermined and settled in its outcome by God, why did Jesus pray? Prayer changes things... things change me. God leaves things open to me partnering with him to see heaven brought to earth.

Whose In... Whose Out? Is there a boundary marker for salvation? Is it personal belief? Is it believing the right thing? What if sin is more about lost identity than breaking laws?

In the storms of your life, do you have the courage to trust that God’s promise is enough? As you learn more about who Jesus is, and who you are in Christ, you will discover a renewed faith bringing you closer to him and the person he created you to be.

II Corinthians 5:17 Now, in the light of your co-inclusion in his death and resurrection, whoever you thought you were before, in Christ you are a brand new person." St. Athanasius, "He became human that we might become like God"

"Likeness" with God isn't something we strive for, neither is it the result of something we must do. "He became human that we might become like God" St. Athanasius This fresh look at atonement could change everything in your walk with Jesus.

Did Jesus categorize people? Did He teach that there are "good fish and bad fish", to be separated at the "end"... the bad fish being thrown into hell. Or, as Titus states, is Jesus "the grace of God thats appeared for the salvation of all men."
