How do you rectify what should be an immense amount of stress that a Christian should feel knowing that whatever they do, they will never be "good enough?" As I understand it, to be a christian means to be in continual renewal of mind, body, and spirit (which I do not think is possible btw). While the problem of not being "perfect" might not be a problem felt explicitly by christians, I believe one of the core philosophies for why christians think atheist are atheists is because they want to be free from "responsibility" of the sin in their life. How does a christian rectify this in their own life?
And if I really want to get "out there" weird with it, I can ask how God can justify that because atheists simply want to rid themselves from a tieless and fruitless endeavor of renewal and as a result, be sent to hell?
I posted this inappropriately in the Questions for 'What is a Christians role on this forum'. I now realize my mistake, I was uninformed. Now I just ask what Christians think of this...
But your individuality and your present need will be swept away by change,
and what you now ardently desire will one day become the object of abhorrence.
