Something that has always bothered me is the attitude that when we were saved by believing in Jesus, by grace there was nothing need be done to earn it. The fact is it can't be earned but just like freedom it is not free. Being saved does not mean business as usual but a genuine change in our course in life. It does not mean we are suddenly without sin or perfect. We are constantly sinning every day of our life. That is hardly perfect. When we are saved we are entering the graces that God provided through the gift of His Son Jesus Christ. Having entered those graces we should thank and bless the Lord for everything in our lives. "Today is the day the Lord has made. A day to rejoice and be glad." (Psalm 118:24) We are to be living each day with thankfulness and love. Becoming a Christian, being saved, means loving as Christ loved, rejecting our old sinful ways. Read (Colossians 2:6-15) and you will see that being saved means a total change in who we are and whom we become. We we are chosen but we also chose to follow Christ.
