Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes! That's basically Paul's motto. He thinks that now that Jesus has come to Earth and died to do away with sin, stuff down here has got to be different. That means Christians need to totally transform their lives. They're new people who've been given a new chance at a relationship with God, so they'd better act like it. Yup, Paul's a pretty big fan of change.
