Actually, I’m very interested in what you think Paul did and would appreciate an answer to that.I'm just going to skip the first part and respond to where you attempted to answer my question.
The Bible tells us what the fruits of the flesh and the fruits of the Spirit are..we can only get those last attributes by knowing God and that’s how we become more like Him.How can you be more like God lol that's actually strange
Galatians 5:19-24
Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

I pray about everything..my hopes, my dreams, my problems, my families problems, everything. When I do that I am trusting God to handle those problems or give me direction in how I should handle those problems..then thing is I am trusting God for His help and His answers.Ok so how do you pray? I feel you just gave me a passionate speech about why you believe but havent really told me how this manifests itself in your daily life.
One time I was trying to decide if I should go on anti depressants and God told me to trust Him. So, I didn’t go on the anti depressants and trusted Him. Obedience in not rushing head long into sin, praying to God to help you. Not only should we read the Bible, we should listen to what God tells us in the Bible. Learn from what the Israelites did or did not do.What did god tell you to do is what I'm getting at?
Praying, praising, singing songs to God and loving Him.How do you worship?
Probably like there are differences in islam like between Sufi and Sunni...people think that their differences are more right.Why are the so many denominations
That I believe on Jesus and was saved.What is it that makes you Christian?
He repents and his sins are forgiven him but even then, God doesn’t take sins lightly, you will still have to deal with the consequences of your sins.What happens to the Christian sinner?
