The Living Bible paraphrases these last two sentences: "That is the way to know whether or not you are a Christian. Anyone who says he is a Christian should live as Christ did." And, as we know, Christ kept His Father’s commandments—including the fourth commandment—setting us an example. And as we know, Christ set us an example—by keeping the fourth commandment and all of His Father’s commandments (John 15:10).
But we should not expect "perfection" in our lives all at once! We have already learned that we are to "grow in grace and in knowledge." The true Christian life is one of overcoming and growing to become more like Jesus Christ—even in our innermost thoughts and desires.
But for the true Christian, the magnificent future makes all the trials, tests and "growing pains" more than worth it (cf. Romans 8:18).
And any of those who have said they are christian AND....
The first commandment is "Worship no god but me" (Exodus 20:3)
Matthew 6:24 (King James Version)
24No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
