Christianity has turn into one of the quickest expanding significant religions in this globe. It has become prevalent that there evolve so significantly Christian sects these days.

Due to the fact Christianity has turn out to be a widespread religion and popular, does it simply turn into a faith that is observed only when 1 is in a distinct church? Or is Christianity a way of daily life to you? Or has Christianity basically been taken for granted?

It is easier to detect somebody as a Christian for the duration of church worship. But soon after church services outdoors of the church, can you determine that man or woman as a christian? It is humorous sometimes when inside of the church, a person greets others with “Peace be with you”, but after church support they turn out to be mortal enemies and/or speak dirty items against every single other especially when each folks are rivals concerned in a heated political election marketing campaign!

It is less complicated to identify a Muslim simply because they reside a Muslim way of life. You can see it in the way they socialize, their conduct, their attire, their meals, and fundamentally their way of residing. The Islamic faith is essentially imbibed in their cultural practices.

But how about Christians, can you see Christianity daily life in them? Do they apply what the Bible teaches? Do they observe the 10 commandments? Do they really feel in Jesus Christ as the Son of God? Do they behave as Christians? Do they enjoy God with all their hearts? Do they adhere to the teachings of Jesus Christ? Do they really like their neighbors? Do they apply what they preach?

Or do you see christians as having ambigu characters – great when inside the church but dwelling a non-Christian life when outside the church. Or do they believe of the 10 commandments as basically a theoritical christian life legislation only, but not worthy to be noticed? Or do they imagine in Jesus simply as a human teacher but not a God? Or do they prioritize materialism a lot more than God? Or maybe they no extended want to adhere to the teachings of Jesus Christ because they think they are currently “saved”!

Maybe, I myself could be guilty in a single or two aspects of these. But as Christians, we need to have to live a Christian life – observing what Jesus has commanded us to do. In the Holy Bible, Jesus said, “If ye really like me, retain my commandments.” He failed to say that just because He died on the cross we are cost-free not to retain the commandments of God. But once again He explained, “If ye adore me, keep my commandments.”

It doesn’t indicate that since Jesus died for you and me on the cross – that we are now free to destroy the particular person we dislike. But rather, Jesus stated, “adore one particular one more as I have cherished you”. If Jesus himself was baptized, why cannot we be baptized also? If Jesus himself had made it a apply to go to a synagogue (Church) to worship on the Sabbath, why can’t we also go to church to worship on the Sabbath? If Jesus himself prayed to God the father, why can not we kneel in prayer also? If Jesus commanded the early Christians to go and preach the gospel, why can’t we preach also?

Sure, to me Christianity really should not be taken basically as a religion. Christianity should be a way of existence for all Christians. Its rules and teachings should be practiced in the way we speak, the foods we consume, our behaviors, our social daily life, our work opportunities, in organization, and even in our lifestyle.
