But surely you've noticed that life tends to be unfair, that is, bad things happen to good people. Christians can be very oppressed and have been killed for their beliefs. There have been poor christians, rich christians, black christians, white christians, boring christians, exciting christians, and so on. So what would you define as a "full on life"?

Obviously there would be the high moral standard, and the giving glory to god, but if you could describe a full on life, what would it be? Or is it simply a way of describing a Christian?
