Full-time Christians or part-timers?

"He was a faithful member who attended church every Sunday?" Would you like that to be you? What if we fleshed it out (pun 100% intended) a little more, since it doesn't tell us that much and had it say, "He was a faithful member who attended church every Sunday, watched porn every night, got wasted at least twice per week, and never made a new Christian?"

Hmmm. That sounds just so much more wretchedly worse! Honestly, we're probably all glad at times that God doesn't play the lowlight reel of our last week at assembly on Sunday, but does He want part-time workers? 1-2 hours per week out of 168 isn't many, after all.

In Romans 12:1, we are urged "by the mercies of God, to present [our] bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is [our] rational service."  As it turns out, God's looking for full-timers. Are you interested? He offers the best retirement package.
