Christian Living
One group of people, in my opinion that walk blindly without any interest in finding out what they believe in are sadly, Christians. I have to quickly add; not all of them, but very very sadly, majority of them.
They don’t go to church, they don’t read their bibles and worst still, they don’t even want others to. They’re ashamed of the gospel and they wish others didn’t stand up for it. Reason? It’s too archaic and mundane!!! They steal, kill, lie, indulge in all kinds of sexual sin without a shudder but are swift to pen down ‘Christianity’ as their religion.
Let me ask; who told you you’re a Christian? How did you become a Christian? Were you coerced? Did you do it to please anyone? Did you do it to feel accepted? Or maybe you were born into Christianity…?
However you got in, if you think the doctrines are still foolish, too unreal, or you’re absolutely not satisfied continuing in it, hear this; You have a CHOICE to walk away. That’s probably why God made the earth into an open space before dropping Adam into it. Apart from man-made boundaries and distinguishing landmarks, there are no doors and windows on planet earth. It’s an open space. SELAH. One thing God never took away from man is man’s will. Right from the Garden of Eden, God gave man a choice.
It took more than a lily-livered God to send His only begotten son down to earth to be mocked and killed. And it wasn’t an undecided, confused, not focused, slimy Jesus Christ that sacrificed His life on the Cross of Calvary.
Why did you become a Christian? Why have you remained a Christian? These are simple questions you probably need to ask yourself. Even if for the sole reason of not continuing on a blind course with no interest in finding the right direction. You are much smarter than that! 🙂
One of the reasons you became a Christian is to help others understand who God is and choose Him. If you think that’s too much a responsibility, you are not being forced or pressurized to do it. Just leave. Otherwise get off your butts and let’s do kingdom business! You don’t have to be among the folks Jesus Christ would surely say to: ‘get away from me, for I know you not’.
You are not gonna win any soul when you are ashamed of the gospel of Christ.
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to Salvation for everyone who believes…” Romans 1:16 NKJV.
Salvation/Faith comes through hearing the word of God.
In case you’re reading this and you think it’s a stinker, praise God…I captured the right audience!
It’s TIME to stand up for what you say you believe in. No more sitting on the fence. The one sure way to grow your faith as a Christian, is to hunger and thirst for the living waters and the living bread. The answers to all your questions are in the Word. But I don’t know how you’re going to find them when you abhor your Bible, you hate Bible Study sessions and you’d rather sleep or hang out with unholy friends than go to Church.
Choose ye this day whom you’ll serve.
You can choose to stay or you can walk away.
If you choose to stay, then take up your cross and follow Christ.
Shalom!
