 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬,

In recent times, I have been asking a lot of questions about the average Christian life:

Was Jesus trying to make a joke when He said we would do greater works than He when He goes to the Father?

Is anything missing from our lives as today's Christians? Is there something we are not seeing or getting?

Why are we ok with the way things are? How comes we are satisfied outside who we have been called to be?

Why are we being tossed around? Why are we so good at keeping a form of godliness but have no power?

Why are we always increasing in knowledge but never coming to arrive at the truth?

It doesn't have to be like this anymore. 𝑾𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒏𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒔, 𝒃𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔, 𝒇𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒔, 𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒔.

I'm only writing to you today, to challenge what you say you know about Jesus.  I want to challenge your knowledge of Jesus. How much have you done with what you now know about Jesus??

It is not even close to being enough because you pray and read your Bible every day, Nooo!!! 

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐬 𝐰𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞.

Have you tried it out? Have you applied it? Have you used it in an area of your life and watch it produce results? Have you insisted that if Jesus said this then you must walk in it, you must live in the reality of it, you must arrive at it, and you would stop at nothing until you become it?

It is not enough to be tagged a Christian because you were born in a Christian home, or because you pray 3 times a day and read your Bible. No! Your results must show it ohh!

I work up this morning with the same burden in my heart, then while I was reading through 2Peter, I found out that the answer to my question was in verses 5-8.

I am not writing to make you feel bad, I'm writing to get you out of your small religious box as a Christian. However, If you feel bad then it means you are as guilty as I am, and it's time for us to set out and put every word we have read and every word we know about Jesus Into use. 

𝑫𝒐 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘𝒍𝒆𝒅𝒈𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝒖𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔. 𝑷𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒆𝒆𝒆!!
