Recently, my sons were watching a transformer movie. These movies have been a big hit and have made millions at the box office. I should have taken the opportunity to introduce them to this biblical principal. The word translated "transformed" actually comes from the same greek word that we get our english word "metamorphosis" from. It means to totally change.
God's Spirit does not want us to be a "little" different. He wants total transformation. He want us to be "like" Him. When a caterpillar changes into a butterfly, they are radically different! When a tadpole changes into a frog, they are totally different. God desires radical change in our lives. That change comes through obedience to Christ.
When obedience stops…transformation also stops. What is God seeking to change in me? Will I look to Him and obey?
Life with Christ is to be a lifetime of change.
