The stagnant god box [View all]
There are too many Christians that we each know that want to live inside of a god box filled with stagnant stale air. They shun others over things God has already forgotten. Each of us knows someone personally who lives in a god box. Tomorrow I'm sharing the following with them:
No baptism
No creation or evolution belief
No bible
No communion
No confirmation
No speaking in tongues
No declaration of sexuality
No mission trip
No volunteering
No worship music
No financial gifts
No church clothes
No young earth creationism
He couldn't even bend his knees to pray. He didn't say the sinner's prayer and among other things, he was a criminal and he was worthy of death.
Jesus didn't take way his pain, heal his body, or smite his scoffers.
He was a thief who walked into paradise the same hour as Jesus simply by believing.
He had nothing more to offer other than his belief that Jesus was who He said He was.
No spin from brilliant theologians.
No ego or arrogance.
No shiny lights, skinny jeans, or crafty words.
No haze machine, donuts, or coffee in the lobby.
Just a naked dying man on a cross unable to even fold his hands to pray.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son so that WHOEVER believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life.
- John 3:16
Because THAT IS ENOUGH !!
