Johnny Hunt: How God has (and is) changing me“Do not be conformed” is not only an imperative, it
is also a passive. This means it is something God does to us. Let me share my testimony of this. God has so changed
me. I am such a radical new creation you would not recognize me if you
knew the man I used to be. I didn’t become different by trying really hard
to be good. God worked the change in me. If there is no change, there is no Jesus Christ in
us. Does that mean that believers won’t sin? No. They
sin, but they don’t want to. Someone might say, “If I am truly saved, can
I sin as much as I want to?” Yes, once you are saved, you can sin as much as you
want to. In fact, I sin more than I want to. If you are truly saved, you
won’t want to sin. If you want to sin, you are not truly saved. I don’t
want to sin at all. It breaks my heart when I do sin. There was a time in my life—before God changed me on
the inside—that I could do wrong and it didn’t bother me. It was my
normal. That all changed when I got saved. Now, the only way I can act unchristian is to allow
the outside to squeeze me into its mold.
