We christians use the phrase "A sinner saved by grace" too often it loses its meaning. And for someone who often thinks he is perfect and has no flaws, this phrase has no meaning. Lemme tell u a story about what this phrase really means. ------>There once was this man named ah run, he was the type of guy that nobody wants to be with. He killed and cheated poor people. He raped girls and robbed old women. He soon was caught and sentenced to death. But on that day he was sentenced to death, a man dressed neatly who has never done anything bad or against the law stood up and offered to die for Ah run. He took up the charge and died for Ah run, without any condition at all. Aren't we all like Ah run? That Jesus died for us when we didnt even know who he was? Why then are we working for salvation? Why are we working so hard doing good deeds just trying to earn salvation to stand righteous? When Jesus has already did that for us? U hypocrites insult his death by working for salvation!!! If a church is going the direction where pastors try to get big crowds by resorting to means of entertaining the congregation more than instead of preaching the Lord's word. Then surely the church is of the world. Pastors use humour as their main weapon to draw big crowds. Some use music to hype up congregations. Some use activities that has nothing to do with the bible as a primary weapon to draw congregations. You hypocrites forget that it is a church!! Not a funfair. Some even twist doctrines to attract people of these world to come in. You give the reason of reaching out to people. But You are feeding them the wrong food and wrong doctrine!! You pastors try to speak of things that humans want to hear insead of speaking of things that they SHOULD hear. In your sermons u talk more of things of these world instead of things of the bible. This is what the Lord says and know that these arent my words! ----->"Stand up son of man," said the voice. "I want to speak with you." The spirit came into me as he spoke and set me on my feet. I listened carefully to his words. "Son of man," he said, " I am sending you to the nation of Israel, a nation that is rebelling against me. Their ancestors have rebelled against me from the beginning and they are still in revolt till this very day. They are hard hearted and stubborn people. But i am sending you to say to them, 'This is what the Sovereign Lord says!' And whether they listen or not - for remember, they are rebels - at least they will know that they have had a prophet among them.""Son of man do not fear them. Do not be afraid even though their threats are as sharp as thorns and barbed like briers, and they sting like scorpions. Do not be dismayed by their dark scowls. For remember! they are rebels. You must give them my messages whether they listen or not, for they are completely rebellious! Son of man, listen what i say to you. Do not join them in being a rebel. Open your mouth and eat what i give you!" Ezekiel 2: 1-8 If you preach a message that humans want to hear, you are merely speaking of things of these world. If man comes up and shoots you at your face insulted by your message, then you have indeed spoke of the word of God. For man are creatures that have rejected the truth from themselves. If man comes up to you and says, "These man has no authority to speak of these words! He blasphemes against the Lord! He has'nt a life worthy of the Lord!!" Take firm hold my friend, and remember no one was ever worthy of the Lord. But you have already been declared righteous before the Lord through the blood of Jesus Christ. Even as i type these words there will be people saying in their minds, "These words are from a 17 year old who is still immatured and stupid and making mistakes! He is just typing these to make himself look smart and wise!! He has no authority of any sort to say these words". I say, so be it. You may reject what i say in these blog and criticize me. But remember you have also rejected the word of the Lord from yourselves. For from this entry comes from the bible and the bible comes from God.
