       We become more like Jesus in character. The Spirit of God works out his fruit in us so that we look more like Christ. A Christian is just that, a follower of Christ who inmates and looks like Christ. Now that we are saved, we are to be presenting (continually) our members to Christ. We should be making good decisions. We have to take the Christian life seriously. Many of us are sports fans, whatever sport we like, and we know that competitive athletes will spend a lot of time preparing and training to do whatever it is that they need to do, to be the best they can be at their sport. And how are we doing? Are we training ourselves so that our thoughts, words, and behaviors are closely aligned with Jesus Christ? Are we spending time in God’s Word? Are we letting God work the Fruit of the Spirit out in us? Or, do we just sit on the coach most days and do nothing. Are we consumer Christians, bench-warming Christians?
