There is a need for us to change because:
1.) We are Commanded
God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." - Genesis 1: 28
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." - Matthew 28: 19-20
2.) We are Chosen
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. - John 15:16
strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. "We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God," they said. - Acts 14:22
Being chosen and at the same time commanded is not an easy task, that is why the Lord reminded us in Romans 5:3...
Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.
All the more, He promised in Romans 8:18...
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
A hope that is seen, is not Hope at all...
