 “Be ye doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” (James 1:22)

“If you are fighting the ultimate evil, you want to be ultimately good.”

You know why more Christians don’t act like it and unfortunately in the process inspire non-Christians to remain non-Christians? 

The answer is simple, some-times we’re so busy claiming the rest of the world is going to the dogs we forget to examine our own kennel..  But then deception is always easier than reception.

I suppose it all starts to boil down to whether we are more interested in religion than a relationship.  More interested in arguing theology than living with our Lord.

In reality, life is a voting booth where we get to make up our minds and hearts as to what type of person we want to be.  God gives us the freedom of choice. 

Then we either choose spiritual inertia – being the kind of Christian who has a charming smile and a ready excuse, or we choose to be a Christian who practices duty, diligence, dedication and devotion.

“Doers of the word”  There is the magic phrase.  God’s men and women not looking to be let off the hook or courting excuses.   Rather chasing challenges.

 Being a river Jordan rather than a dead sea. 

Not a convenient Christianity because there is nothing convenient about a faith that tells us to love our enemies, to control our anger, to give our money, to practice humility and perform the inconvenient.
