Christians should continue to grow more like Christ

Most of my previous letters spoke of Christ himself, salvation and eternal life. Today, I want to address you all individually. If you are a born-again believer, you have secured your final home in heaven. But today, it is not enough to say, “I am a Christian.” Why do I say that without further explanation? As a born-again Christian, we must not stop there. Like a newborn physical body, he or she grows and that is what we need to do. Every day you are alive you should seek to become more like Jesus. kAmx? |2EE96H ad[ 96 E6==D FD 9@H H6 42? 8C@H] w6 D2:5 E@ G:D:E E9@D6 :?
