If you have shared Christ much, you have encountered very many who are happily content with their lives and are not concerned with their sin and the result. Life is good, and there are so many immediate pleasures in the good life. They have no interest in eternal things. 

I’ve noticed an amazing parallel. Most professing Christians are very busy. They are busy with work, family, and a boatload of pleasures. When they want to relax, they watch movies. When they want some excitement, they watch sports. To stay informed, they watch the news. Oh yes, and church is fit in when there is time (I.E. nothing better). 

Amazing how both groups seem so similar in their responses.  

“But ye have not so learned Christ; If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness” (Ephesians 4:20-24).

Oh my brothers, may we be busy about His business. “And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again” (2 Corinthians 5:15).
