Why make Jesus Christ boss of your life?

The motivations behind our actions are an important part of Christianity.

I was challenged in church today with the question: Why have you made Jesus Christ the boss (Lord) of your life?

Have you made Jesus the boss of your life simply to escape Hell? Have you submitted your life to Jesus at all?

Or do you have a better motive, to restore yourself to a right relationship with your creator?

To God sin is the issue, that's what prevents people having a right relationship with Him. Jesus died on the cross to pay the price for our sins so that we could be restored to a right relationship with God as our creator.

This post is largely inspired by Pastor Mark Weston's speech at communion time, at the church I attended when this post was first written.¹

I recommend reading the Bible. Several English and other language translations of the Bible are downloadable for use with e-sword, a free downloadable program.
