The heart of Christianit life

[arunangelo]

 God had mercy on us and forgave us although we had offended Him, killed Him and were unfaithful to Him. He did these by sacrificing His own life for us. We can accept His mercy and forgiveness by being merciful (Matthew 9:13) and forgiving (Matthew 18:21-35) to others. On the other hand, if we worship God by our lips and even prophesy and perform miracles in His name (Matthew 7:21-23) but refuse to be merciful and forgiving to others, we will be rejecting His forgiveness and His Kingdom (Matthew 6:14-15). We are called to worship God in the spirit.  This means that our life must be in unison with the Spirit of God.  We must therefore, cease doing evil (John 3: 19,20); keep away from fornication, adultery, homosexuality and all other forms of impurities (1Cor 6: 9,10); help the needy (Matthew 5:31-40); forgive our offenders of the offenses they committed against us; and be willing to sacrifice our lives in the process of helping our offenders. In marriage, we have to love and forgive our spouse, even if there is unfaithfulness; and are willing to sacrifice our life in the process of helping our spouse.  Furthermore, we have to keep the marriage covenant permanent, just as God’s Covenant with us is everlasting. We must also become humble like little children (Matthew 18:2-4) and wipe out hate from our heart. We can do this by contemplating on God’s humility (in becoming a human being) and His sacrificial love for us.

arunangelo,
I have only one thing to say to your post: AMEN.
I, for one, consider it impossible to accept Him as All, without being merciful and forgiving.  We are commanded (not asked but COMMANDED!) to love (be charitable to) one another.
Bless you for the reminder and the scriptural reference.

In HIM,
JN

I found that it is realy easy to keep on the "straight and narrow", as my Gran calls it, if you always walk in the Holy Spirit.
I learned this lesson not so long ago. There is a differance between having the Spirit and walking in the Spirit.
God showed this to me in
Galatians 5:25 (King James Version)
25If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

It is so wonderful to say, with all the glory to my Father, that since then I have been growing stronger, and walking with the Spirit makes my choices a lot easier.

Excuse me, but may I ask what is a Christianit life?            

Christian life is the life of Christ in human beings.
