Re: Biblical Perfection Being Like Jesus

It will be a daily, ongoing battle, that will never finish until we are changed from mortal to immortality or at death. Salvation indeed is free, Christ indeed has paid the cost, but we will spend the rest of our lives indebted to the one who granted us our freedom and liberty.
Thank you for spreading this message of true Christianity - striving to be like Christ.... without attaching all the manmade rules, and laws.... once we get the cart behind the horse where it belongs, our lives will begin to evidence the fruit of the spirit, when the life of Christ is allowed to reign in our lives.
