The relevancy of Christ!

The question is how relevant is Jesus to you?

The answer is the relevancy of Christ is determined by you not by Jesus. He will never cajole you in anyway to come to Him. You have to reach out to Him.

The relevancy of Christ is about life not death. The gift of salvation does not relate to time. Time is of no consequence to God.

Some people make a knee jerk decision when close to death to guarantee their salvation. Unfortunately, this course of action robs you of the richness of God over your lifetime.

Christ died to give you a life you can never experience on your own. This is an abundant life filled with all the attributes of God including love, joy, peace, strength, wisdom and protection. You cannot find these attributes in the world. They come from Heaven.

Jesus is an upfront and personal God. He wants a “one on one” relationship with you. He desires to speak to you and share His life with you.

Jesus is always near you because the Holy Spirit is sealed in all believers. The Holy Spirit is the life of Jesus and wants to be involved in every moment of your life.

The relevancy of Christ is that He transforms you into a new being with the moral compass of Jesus. You die to your natural life at birth and become an entirely new person in Christ.

Your perspective changes as you become a pilgrim on a journey. You live in the world but you are not of the world. You belong to Christ and inherit all His promises.

The relevancy of Christ has nothing to do with religion. You make a decision to walk in oneness with Jesus believing in all His promises. You walk by faith not by what you see with your eyes.

As a believer you develop a deep respect and fear of God because He has power and dominion over the heavens and earth and your destiny is in His hands. You desire to be right with Jesus at all times and understand this can only happen by the blood of Jesus and repenting from your character defects.

Jesus forgives all your sin and knows you can never match up to His standards. He is not looking for perfection just a willing heart to change and seek His will for your life!

The Christ follower is in touch with his repugnant nature and knows his only hope is in Jesus!
