Radical for Christ

I have heard the saying "Be radical for Christ" quite a few times recently from a couple of different sources the latest is from the Desiring God blog http://www.desiringgod.org/Blog/1289_the_advantages_of_providence/ . This post talks about Gods providence. He cares for us and He will provide for us. Do you believe it? Really believe it? Then why not be radical! Do you believe that our Heavenly Father has given us His best when He gave His Son to die for us? Do you believe that we have an eternity with that God who loves us so much? Do you believe that everything you have was given to you by our Lord? Prove it! Live it! I want you all to know that I am talking to myself here more then anything else! I am trying to prove it, live it. I am trying to give my best back to God. I am trying to be radical for Christ!

What must I do to be saved?

Romans 3:23 says that "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." That means me and you.

Romans 6:23 says "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord." The term death there means eternal separation from God. We do not simply cease to exist! The Gift God has offered us is free. It is not by works.

Romans 10:9 says "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." This is a decision we all need to make.

This salvation is not a religion.
This salvation is a relationship with a very personal God.

It is not saying a prayer and going back to living as a sinner.
It is making Jesus Christ Lord of you life.

It is not a life of ease. It is not about being healthy and wealthy.
It is love, joy, peace, happyness and so much more that only Jesus Christ can offer.

Jesus says in John 14:6 "I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me."

Jesus is the only way!
If you would like to make a decision for Christ let me know. I will do all that I am able to see that you find a great church to help you grow!
