UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT
When you become a Christian, the ownership of your life changes hands. In the past, you were the boss, doing things in the way you saw best. For many people, this meant looking after themselves above everything else.
But now you have a new boss. You have given your life to Jesus Christ. This is what it means to be a Christian Jesus in now in charge, as the Lord of your life. The apostle Paul said: if you confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10:9 (KJV) says: That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
What does this mean in practice? It means a new way of life. As we submit our lives to God and becomes His children, we find an amazing new freedom. We are no longer the slaves of sin instead, we are free to do good. As Jesus said, I have come that they may have life, and that they may have in more abundantly.
John 10:10 (KJV) says: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
We start to live out the life of what Jesus called "the kingdom of God". In simple terms, this means accepting that God rules us as our King. Jesus spoke about this way of life in His famous "sermon on the mount", which you can find in matthew chapter 5 to 7.
It also means keeping the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20:1-17. The Ten Commandments aren't very popular today our society has turned them into the Ten Suggestions! But God given rules were never intended to restrict or spoil our lives, as many people today think. Instead, they act like a government health warning on a pack of cigarettes: "doing these things can damage your life". Thank you for your time and i hope you are bless by this message.

James 2:10-13
It is impossible for us to live a life perfectly without sin, even for believers. What is essential is that we humble ourselves and ask the Lord to search our hearts and remind us of where we have faltered so we can repent and be cleansed in the Lord's blood of forgiveness. Also, forgiving those who have hurt us and show them mercy is one of the hardest things to sincerely do. These things even believers must strive to do all the way to our death beds.
Very true every thing that you plasmaste there in your post. Wonderful. If it is true, today people ignore the laws of God, forget that he is the only one who can save us and that we must believe, trust and have full faith.
