       Let’s consider a couple examples of what this might look like for practical application. Let’s say a college-aged girl who was raised as a Muslim becomes a Christian while she is away at college. She phones her mother to tell her that she has decided to become a Christian. This undoubtedly is going to cause quite a stir. The girl who has converted is so convinced of her newfound faith in Christ that she is willing to lay everything on the line. Her mother may tell her that unless she renounces her Christian faith, she is no longer welcome at home. So, the new convert to Christ has a choice to make. Will she love Christ more, and be devoted to her newfound Lord and Savior, or will she love her mother more. Or let’s say a son phones his father from college saying he’s decided he’s gay, and wants to practice homosexuality. The father has a choice to make. He can still love his son, but he has to choose who he loves more. Will he love his son and tell him he doesn’t approve of his homosexuality behavior?
