Progress as a Christian

I can't say that I was a horrible kid, but I have noticed that I have become more in love with Christ than I used to be.

I'm pretty much the same as before but I have made a tiny bit of progress.

Pretty good.

I have made some progress, I hasten to modestly add that I am only at the beginning of a long journey but I know that there has been some change in me, many have pointed it out often saying that they can't pinpoint exactly what has changed but that something has. I am encouraged and excited at being told this, and hope that the change has been the holy spirit!!

According to my own perceptions I've gotten worse, but that might be because I am far more acutely aware of what constitutes a sin. Maybe I've actually gotten better; just way more nit-picky.

I have made much progress since I rededicated my life, but I'm not fully there just yet...

Since becoming a Christian I have actually gotten worse...I swear more..and I haven't read my Bible or prayed for like a month. I don't know what's going on, I haven't lost the desire to do sinful things and I always give in to temptation and I have a LOT of dirty thoughts...I'm just not very good at being religious I guess. Whatever, someday I'll get better.

How well you do will tie very closely with how much you read and pray, trust me. Keep trying SlimShadyJB

These are the ones who split churches, thinking only of themselves. They do not have the Holy Spirit! Jude 1:19

whew. sure notice sin a bunch more. sin less? hard to say. Paul said that he was the chief of sinners...makes you think, doesn't it? I know my heart is dreadfully wicked. I am, however, a living fish fighting the current whereas I was a dead one floating downstream.

The question:
"What would you do if you were totally sold out for Jesus?"

Jesus' answer:
“He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. ... He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it."

A spring of hot water can heal, a spring of cold water can refresh, but a pool of lukewarm water causes sickness.
Are you sold out for Jesus, or just a Christian?
