CHRISTIANITY
Is Christianity supposed to be expressed by long faces, sad, dry, boring, dull, and lifeless? Why must be our spiritual experience by sad music and sombre church rituals? Certainly not!
We are supposed to be happier. Jesus and His disciples lived under the new covenant. He told them to rejoice that their names were written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, which applies to everyone who believes in JESUS(see Luke 10:20 NKJV; Revelation 21:27). According to Romans 15:13, we who believe in Christ are full of hope, joy, and peace. That’s the reason enough for us to be excited and rejoice! Today is the day that you have made, and I say rejoice.
The bottom line is the old covenant brings bondage, a covenant of work, based on doing, self-performance, self-struggling, self-striving, and labouring, to be acceptable to God. Beforehand, that kind of covenant steals our joy and peace. But, the new covenant brings liberty, the old covenant brings bondage. The law is full of demands and demands, while grace is given and given abundantly—also, supply and supply.
He gave me a message in a phenomenon way and told me in 2004 over the phone about my God’s call. I hope my story as a witness or “evidence or confirmation.” This power of the Holy Spirit in you can transform your life into evidence for the world that Jesus has been raised from the dead and is alive today.
Christianity may not make you popular in a world that feasts immorality, strife, divisions, terrorism, materialism, and self-indulgence, but it will set you apart. However, it will get you noticed. It may even cause you to be ridiculed and insulted. They think you are a peculiar person. My mother has been persecuted and rejected by friends, relatives, and neighbours, but she persisted and never gave up. My brother has been left by friends and is not even part of their group. But he continued despite the things they encountered, even it’s happening in their church.
