There are really only two ways to live.

1. The first way is to keep saying 'No' to God and pretending to be your own king. But if you do that, you won't win, because God is God. God will shut you out of his kingdom forever.
   
   
2. The second way is to stop saying 'No' to God, and to ask God to forgive you. God will forgive you and welcome you as his friend. Because Jesus died to take your punishment, God promises that he won't be angry with you any more.
   
   You can then start living with God's son, Jesus, as your king, and do what he wants you to do. You can look forward to being in God's good kingdom forever.
