Christianity

 


    God always finishes what He starts.  He fulfilled every prophecy about Jesus.  He always completed what He said He will do.  That means that if it has not been fulfilled yet, that it will be.  You can find comfort and confirmation in that truth.  The truth become solid and turns you into God's glory.
    Jesus came to this world as a human to fulfill prophecy, honor God, and to heal the brokenhearted.  He is fully God and was fully human at the same time.  That is how he became the gateway between humans and God to have a real relationship.  He gives us the option to be free.  
    It is our choice on if we take it or not.  If you do, then you become part of his family and can call yourself a Christian.  You want to make the choice now because no one know when the last day will be.  We all have an expiration date.  We all know that the Day of Vengeance is the day that Jesus will return.
    Jesus made promises.  Like God, he will fulfill every promise he ever made.  That is how we know He will return one day.  Since that day is the Day of Vengeance, it would be wise to make sure you have your relationship with God where your soul longs for it to be.  Accept Jesus' sacrificial gift and become a Christian.  Be an oak of righteousness to live out God's glory.
    The first Christians were the Apostles.  They were the ones that lived, worked, and learned from Jesus.  They were set apart from other followers because they were invested personally.  They belonged to Jesus even though they were free.  After all we do see how Judas walked away, but the other 11 lived outstanding lives to bear witness of their relationship with Jesus.
    Christians are saints.  We are saints because we rejoice in the calling that Jesus gives us.  We work on our relationship with God daily.  We pray, read, and meditate on God's Word.  We work on our spiritual gifts to make them the most useful.
    Christians belong to God.  You may feel like you do not belong in the world, but that should be celebrated.  It means you are on God's path.  You live in this world, but you are not to live a part of this world.  To follow Jesus is to go against the way the world does things.  You are more than redeemed.  You fit in the family of God.
    Christians are the elect priesthood.  We are citizens on the Holy Nation.  It is an honor and privilege to be a part of God's family.  You have been called out of darkness.  It was not an accident.  You were created, wanted, and chosen.  Sin leads to death, but salvation removes the eternal death sentence and places you in a loving home.  Live faithfully and nothing is impossible.
