Good Morning!! Life
versus no life. There are people who believe in Christ and those who
don’t. The Scripture says, “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal
life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath
remains on him” (John 3:36). There
are three kinds of people: natural, carnal and spiritual. The natural
man doesn’t know, or want to know Christ,...and has never been " born again." The spiritual
man is one who lives the normative Christian life. And those carnal
people are the babes, or immature believers in Christ.
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.—John 10:10 (NIV)
Maybe
you’re a Christian, and you could confidently say, "I am saved. I know
I’m going to heaven." But that’s all it means to some,...just fire
insurance for the future. You’re certain of heaven, but you’re not quite
certain why you’re certain. And the fact is that you’re not enjoying
the Christian life,...the abundant life. And
then…there are those believers who have heaven as their hope and future
home, and they hold it in their hearts. That, my friend, is having
abundant life! Unfortunately, some people think that the spirit-filled
Christian life is only for missionaries, ministers, and church leaders,
and that the rest of us should just sort of grin and bear it through
life until we can get to heaven.
Those
who have never experienced new life in Christ still live,...they have existence, but no life.
Father God, I know You
want us, Christians, to live a vibrant, victorious, dynamic, and
delightful spirit-filled lives. We don’t want to bring the Bible down to our own
experience, as many people often do. Help us to always seek above all else, to do what Your Word commands, and promises. Allow us to live the abundant life Christ has
promised, today. Amen.
"
Faith does not mean the death of your old fun, old freedom, and old
live,...Faith is the injection of REAL life into what you only Thought
was life before."
