2. Which is real?

3. 1. Content to be separate from God 2. Trying to work your own way back to God… making and keeping rules in order to be right with God. 3. Seeming to trust Jesus to make you right with God, but having little interest in changing to be more like Him. 4. In view of God’s mercy, offering yourself as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. Not conforming any more to the pattern of this world but being transformed by the renewing of our mind so that you know, do and find great joy in your obedience to God. What’s the Big Picture of Your Life?

6. 19 My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 for man’s anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires. 21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. 22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25 But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does. 26 If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless. 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
