Many of you may have received a similar titled article. Indeed, at first glance, that the 10 Most Important Things in that article may be very encouraging. However, when you pay attention to the points elaborated, they do not reflect the truth of God's word. They assume that human nature by ourselves can strive to attain them. Alas, it is far from the truth because all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. As much as we aspire to attain, we will never until we know Jesus and our lives will be CHANGED by the Holy Spirit. The bible calls it being born again..

I have rephrase the 10 points for your reading pleasure in hope that you may glean some nuggets of truth for your life. May God bless you!
