Have you ever asked yourself the question: 'How good do I have to be to be a Christian?'
I am not talking about starting the Christian life. We understand that God accepts us totally because of Jesus. His death alone deals with all we have done wrong. But at the same time we know that once we are Christians we are meant to obey God.
Yet obviously we are not perfect. We fall into gossip, or envy or lust. We fail. But how much can we fail? How many times can we fail and still be a Christian? How good do you have to be?
