How come you don't drink?
Why do you never come out clubbing?
You don't sleep with your girlfriend/boyfriend! Why?
. . . . . . Because I'm a Christian
WRONG!!!
These things do not make us Christians, they are simply choices we made when we came face to face with God's Grace.
Is it any wonder our non Christian friends have no idea what it is to follow God or who God is!
Ive noticed (and I'm guilty of it too) that we tell our friends the reason that we don't do stuff is because we are Christians but this is a lie. We don't do stuff because we choose too, WE Choose.
That's why we have left soo many different views of God on the world.
We all have a personal relationships with God and because of the impact he has and continues to have on our hearts and our head we each live life differently.
For some he calls them not to drink
For others he calls to a life of singleness
But one thing that is TRUE is that God came gave his son to the earth that is filled with sin, that he would die to save us from the righteous wrath of God but more than that he would rise, defeat death, so that we could have relationship with him!
When it comes to following Christ, accepting God's gift of grace WE have no say. there was no choice or decision to be made.
When you come face to face with something so beautifully intoxicating you can't say No
There is not even the option of choosing because you know that this is what life is about .
So lets be honest lets not tell people about our choices because most of the time they end up being wrong
BUT
lets start to tell the truth that we have met a beautiful saviour who flipped everything upside down and gave us the greatest gift of all and because of this we cant help but do thing his way because our way, really, is just plain boring
Life is more than getting wasted, having sex and being cool.
Its......
Well I'm pretty sure he's show exactly what your life is all about no need for me to say another word
