Scott’s neighbor was moving places and Scott went to help with moving things to the haulage truck packed in front of the house. Afterwards, Scott offered to say a word of prayer for Michael and his wife Jane. But Michael reluctantly said they were not religious, and Jane quickly interjected motioning to her husband, Michael “a little prayer wouldn’t hurt,”she chuckled.
Scott went ahead and prayed that God would bless their new beginning in a new neighborhood.
Thereafter Scott left, wondering to himself, he doesn’t in any way feel religious as a Christian , as a matter of fact he feels more alive now than he had ever been outside of God
Religion is a classification given by man to any form of worship of God. But do you know that Christianity is not a religion? I will tell you why
Religion is man attempting to reach God by his own efforts, devising a path he supposed would lead to God. With over 3 thousand religions in our world today, man is still grappling with his idea on how to find God, and coming to terms with the truth.
But on the other hand, Christianity is God reaching out to man to save him from sin and death, restoring him to a relationship with himself through a very costly sacrifice of himself in human form called Jesus Christ.
It was in Antioch an ancient Greek city in present day Turkey about 36 AD that the followers of Jesus were first called ‘Christians’ meaning they were ‘like Christ’
So you see it wasn’t even God that called them Christians.
“Babe”, his wife’s voice cut through his reverie.
“This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him.”
John 3:16-18 MSG
Work hard for sin your whole life and your pension is death. But God’s gift is real life, eternal life, delivered by Jesus, our Master.”
