Whether you are making a commitment for the first time or are recommitting your life to Christ, the following lessons will change your life. No , literally. I don't mean angels singing and harps playing change. I mean spirit change.
First, briefly about the blog. It is not written to wow you or keep you on the edge of your seat but, it will do both if you are wanting to change your direction in life and become a true follower of Christ. There is a difference between saying you are a Christian (having a religious tag) and following Christ.
Keep this one thing in mind. Your opinion of whether or not you are following counts for nothing. A big fat zero. Christ has given His opinion as to how you are to determine if you are a Christian.
Be very careful. Christ will be the one to decide if you are following. You are not the one who will decide. So what are you to do?
A. Know the truth.
Do you know the Truth? Do you know that the Truth is Jesus Christ himself. Jesus says I AM the way, the truth and the life. John 14:6
He is not telling you he knows the way. He is telling you he is the way. He is not saying he knows the truth. He is saying he is the truth. He is eternal life.
It's brilliant! Hollywood has nothing on that script.
God made the truth of all things a person, not a doctrine and not a religion. There is so much anger and debate over whether or not this is true or that is true, even among Christians.
It is very comforting to know even if you were saying the wrong thing Christ himself will know and correct you, as long as, you are following, listening and allow for His correction.
So relax. He has such a gentle heart.
This journey is one of knowing Him:) So don't have an opinion until you are using Jesus as your truth. I tell you it is a lot less stressful.
Peace
