Somebody told me once that wether or not you believe in God, in the way you comprehend his character is directly related to the way you conduct your life. Martin Luther argues that all human have a crave built in to worship God. Now which one is the God we worship is a personal decision. We may worship money, sports, even family. It is just a matter of looking at where our time, money and effort is to discover who our God truly is.
I heard a sister long ago saying that she was a born again christian. At the moment I didn’t understand why she emphasizes on the term born again. Until later I realize that saying that it is almost like saying. At some point in my life I realize that Christ was my God and he saved me through what he did for me on the cross.
Here is how my logic had to worked back when I was questioning who my God was. There are enough historical evidence to prove that Jesus truly existed in the form of a human being. It was recorded multiple times in the bible he was seen by thousands of people. His enemies knew all the miracles that he did and they questioned his deity.
So the truth of the matter is that he lived here on earth. Once I realize that he was here, then I started to research more seriously what exactly was the message that he came to deliver. Once you start reading what his disciples wrote about him and exactly what he said, it is easy to understand that he told the world that he was the Son of God! With all respect for all the religions out there but Jesus is the only one that according to the people that he met claimed to be God. Just like C.S. Lewis wrote it on his book mere Christianity. Once you know and understand who Jesus claimed he was the. You could only have two choices. Either he was a crazy lunatic or he indeed was God. That is when your decision needs to happen.
Here are some questions that will trigger your
Do you believe that there is a God?
Have you seriously consider what Jesus did while he was on earth?
Do you know what he said about who He was?
After knowing what he did and said do you think he was a lunatic or do you think that there is a possibility that Jesus indeed was God.
It is known that John was perhaps Jesus closest friend. He wrote the book called, John with one purpose to make people believe that he was the Son of God. With an open heart I invite you to take a journey through the book of John and discover what Jesus did and who he really was.
Last, Jesus enemies believed in his existence. Perhaps you believe that Jesus indeed is the Son of God. However Christ said in his word people will say Jesus Jesus and I will spit
So is it sufficient to believe in Jesus or perhaps is more important to surrender to his power. Now that you know who he really was how does that change the way you conduct your life?
