Our Christian lives...
Most of us have this crazy misconception that coming to faith is the end of our journey. That we've reached what Christ meant for us to reach already. Either we think that or simply don't care. I say this because the majority of us as Christians never reach anything that could be referred to as maturity spiritually. Getting saved is just the beginning. If you've become a Christian you are just getting started. God never meant for us to get saved and then just relax. Now that our eyes have been opened to the truth we are to seek that truth. Now that we have access to Him who created life and knows how its to be done, we are to seek Him and cling to Him and learn how to do this thing right. To come to faith and stick to most of our old ways is nothing short of foolish.
This is what a speaker said about our Christian lives. I absolutely agree that if you get saved, it is the START of Journey of Christianity. It is not the end of life. This disbelief is probably why there are a lot of "unlearned brethren". Also, we need more leaders, but we are lookin for leader who has not made a mistake...which is a mistake...b/c everyone makes mistake...sometimes when we said we are saved...we might not be saved "by God's eyes". How freaky and fearful is that?...how could I know I got saved??...all I can answer is that...when you are saved...you'll act just like Jesus b/c Jesus is in your heart...
One major doubt that Christian have is why God wont control us...but rather give us "free will". This should can be answered easily...if God "dictate" this world...and "brain-dumb" ourselves... then do we truly love God??? One might say it is "forced" love. So, by givin us free will, he knows if we truly love Him or not. And we love him not by fear, but with our own free will...
The speaker crossed his point, but he raised more question to me... im still tryin to answer my questions...
