Real Consistency

The only way to be "truly" consistent is as a non-Christian. If we are to be Christians at all, we will be inconsistent ones. We will be right some of the time and wrong some of the time. What Jesus asks of us is that we strive to take the "right some of the time" and make it an ever-increasing portion of the time (Christian growth).
