When Christ becomes Lord of our lives we are completely changed. Once our minds were obsessed with self-centered pride. Our primary aim was to achieve success, whatever the cost. Life was little more than a battlefield for our ambition and greed.
Jusin(c.100-165)affirms, once the change takes place the weapons of that "war" are transformed. As Scripture states, our swords have been beaten in ploughshares, and "the battlefield is now fertile land on which we cultivate love of God, love of man, faith and hope--all of them gifts of the Father hrough the One who was crucified."
Transformation of this type is what the Psalmist envisioned when he wrote each of us "dwells under his own vine". Our homes are happy, our marriages secure, and our lives contented.
