Religion Kills – Relationship Heals
4Then Jesus asked them, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent. 5He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored. Mark 3:4-5
I was about to leave where I live in NJ. I noticed a neighbor walking in the neighborhood, and I started a conversation with her. She was from a catholic background. She had probably never heard the Good News of JESUS clearly. Shortly after, I was able to pray with her a prayer to give her life to JESUS! How would she know the TRUTH unless someone told her? I was not there to condemn her. I was there to share with her the ONE (JESUS) WHO could save her!
It is tragedy for me to see today so many ministers attacking other ministers. It is also a tragedy to see so many churches attacking other churches. Will everyone agree on everything? Absolute not. Is that, ok? Absolutely! If we can agree on the essential and fundamental Truths of Christianity such as salvation in JESUS CHRIST (fully GOD, the Son of GOD, the only GOD) by grace and through faith alone, then why not work together to see precious people saved, healed, set completely free, and baptized in the HOLY SPIRIT and Fire by our LORD JESUS CHRIST!
Action Point
Reach out to someone today and share with them the joy and simplicity of a relationship with JESUS CHRIST! Don’t get caught up on criticizing everyone. Get caught up in loving JESUS, loving people and sharing the Good News of JESUS everywhere GOD sends you! If GOD has placed in your heart to make a stand for the Gospel and be used in apologetics, then make sure that you are moved with compassion for the souls of all the people around you. Encourage someone today!
GOD bless you, my friend!
