Going Public
January 8, 2016
The Bible tells us that when we become a believer in Christ that we are supposed to go public by the first act of obedience through baptism. After that we need to openly share the Gospel with those around us, not only by living a certain way so that they can see but also by using words to tell them about Christ.

Sometimes we ask for something that we want God to do for us and if what we are asking for is from Him, then we must persevere and continue knocking no matter how long it takes. We must remember that when God shuts a door, it’s not going to open again. Lastly, Jesus stands at the door of our heart knocking and it is essential to let Him in so that He can know us intimately.

The Church, made up of all believers, is the Bride of Christ, and as such we are to submit to Him in whatever He calls us to do. Christ loves His bride, so much so that He died for her, and this love is revealed to us throughout Scripture. So we now have a choice to either go head to head with Him who loves us, or let Him be the head of His Church and submit to His will.

A battle cross to mark the place of a death does not mean much to people who did not know that person, but it symbolizes a great loss to those who knew them. Jesus died on a cross to win a battle for us but it only means something if we are in relationship with Him.

Although the Church is filled with messy people, God designed it to work in such a way as a family coming together and caring for one another. When we are adopted into His family, we need to plug into a local church family to live the Christian life united, loving our brothers and sisters.

We must start by believing in God, that He was in the beginning and created all things. Then we can move forward to surrendering our lives to Him, believing that He loves us and cares about every detail, and seeing the changes that take place in our lives.

The world tells us many lies about how we can be in control of ourselves and everything’s going to be okay. The truth is that we are not in control, but we can trust the One who is and who cares enough about us to give us hope in our future.

The world offers nothing that can satisfy us and yet we continue to search for things of this world. Jesus says that He is the Bread of Life and it is only in Him that we can find satisfaction. We must stop filling ourselves with worldly things and fill ourselves with Him so that we may have eternal life.

Not many people have something in their life that they would die for. In a relationship with Jesus Christ He desires a commitment from us that we give our whole lives to Him. The Bible teaches that we are to be a living sacrifice to God, living and doing all things for Him.

We are not supposed to catch and release when it comes to sharing the Gospel. We must follow Jesus and teach others to do the same. Following Jesus requires authenticity because acting it out and faking it is not an option. It’s expensive either way, but it’s worth the price to follow Christ.
