According to the bible, you can
determine a man’s spiritual state or maturity when he or she speaks. Words reveal
who you are within. Those things about you that aren’t vivid are manifested by your
words. Basically, what you say is who you are. Your words locate you. Your words
can make or break you. Words are powerful. Never utter careless words. Like seeds,
they will grow and become in your life what you said.
I heard a young girl say to her
mum, “I am not religious; I don’t want to go to church.” I turned and looked straight
into her eyes thinking: “how dare you bring religion and Church under the same umbrella.”
Then, it dawned on me she is just a young girl who spoke without any
comprehension of what she said. This is actually the experience of many people.
I know Christians go to church
but Christianity is NOT a religion. A lot of folks think Christianity is a religion,
sadly it’s not. Religion is man’s yearning or continuous attempt to reach a
supreme being; a god they don’t even know nor have fellowship with. Christianity
is very different; it’s God Himself coming to have fellowship with man. Quit
trying to reach out to God; that’s religion. He has already reached out to men
through Jesus. Just accept his Lordship today and everything about your life
will change.
Christianity is the life and
nature of God in a human person. Christianity
is DIVINITY at work in HUMANITY. Christianity is not a way of life but life in
itself. This was what Jesus brought into the world. Jesus brought us into
fellowship with the father. Most people think it’s a religion because they understand
with their minds. Christianity cannot be understood with the mind. Christianity
is spiritual and that’s the reason many struggle with it. Simply put,
Christianity is Christ in you.
