When God calls us to serve Him, it is often a frightening prospect. We may think we are unable to do what He wants us to do.---Gospel Minutes (pdf)
IS THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
THE ONE TRUE CHURCH?
With one billion members, the Roman Catholic Church is the largest denomination in the world. Since the Bible teaches that Jesus built only one church, we must learn if the Roman Catholic Church is the one mentioned in the Bible (Matthew 16:18; Ephesians 5:22-33; Colossians 1:18).---article from the Truth for the World

5:43Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy: 5:44but I say unto you, love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you; 5:45that ye may be sons of your Father who is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust. 5:46For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 5:47And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the Gentiles the same? 5:48Ye therefore shall be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect. --Mat. 5:43-48
Its tough being a christian, tough to forgive wrongs being done to us, tough to control your anger, and wanting to get even with those who do you wrong. But we are to be like God ready to forgive wrongs and deeds that are done to us. Because we will need forgiveness from God the Father for sins we commit one day.
Though we may fail in this forgiving wrongs that are done to us, we need to keep trying to forgive wrongs that are done to us.
Scripture reading Luke 24: 1-7;
　
24:1But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came unto the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared. 24:2And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. 24:3And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. 24:4And it came to pass, while they were perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel: 24:5and as they were affrighted and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? 24:6He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, 24:7saying that the Son of man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

In Matthew 19 we have recorded an exchange between Jesus and the Pharisees concerning the marriage relationship, and in Matthew 19:6, Jesus said, "So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate." This is true in the marriage relationship but it's also true in other relationships involving God. ---TFTW
Almost everyone who believes in Jesus Christ would answer "yes" to the question in our title. For millions of people around the world, Easter is one of the holiest days of the year. It is second only to Christmas as the most sacred of all religious holidays--TFTW
As believers in Christ, we are to be christ like. Sounds simple doesn't?
Thats if you have no sin in your life or done any sin in your life, then your truly Christ like. But we all have sin and fallen short, but if we go to God the Father and ask Him to forgive us of those sins through His Son Jesus we are forgiven because it was Christ who committed no sin in His life who was willing to die for you and me to wash away our sins we commit so we can go on trying to be more God like in our lives.
I am a sinner, and committed many sins and still do, but thanks be to God I know when I go to Him in prayer and ask for His forgiveness I know He is gracious to forgive me of them. But, I try and not make the same mistakes twice, or do nothing I may regret later. But unfortunately I slide backwards and get caught doing the very things I swore I try and control, but I keep trying to control those bad habbits and deeds. And continue on in Christ foot steps.
