I am a Christian.
I am a born-again child of Christ.
I am not perfect…but I strive to be perfect like my Lord.
I broke God’s Law.
I broke the 9th commandment….”You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.”
I was a liar.
I broke the 8th commandment….”You shall not steal.”
I was a thief.
I broke the 7th commandment….”You shall not commit adultery.”…Jesus said whoever looks upon a woman [or man] to lust after her [or him] has committed adultery with her [or him] in his [or her] heart.
I was an adulterer.
I broke the third commandment…”You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.”
I was blasphemous.
I broke the 6th commandment…”You shall not murder.”…Jesus said if you’ve ever hated anyone, you are a murderer in God’s eyes.
I was a murderer.
I was a liar, a thief, an adulterer, a blasphemer, a murderer, and the Lord knows I broke a million other commandments.
I was a sinner…bound for eternity in Hell.
I was dirty, blemished in God’s eyes.
I was given a gift…a gift of forgiveness from my Lord Jesus when He died on the cross.
I am clean, forgiven, and thankful that Jesus saved me from my deserved eternal death in Hell.
I am a born again, child of Christ.
I am a Christian.
I know I’m going to heaven when I die…….do you?
hmmm……
