Bible Note: Hi Joe, I liked your post but that last part, in my estimation, could use a little emphasis in the right direction. The fact that someone can call oneself a Christian and at the same time claim to have control over God is a clear sign of why reformation is so desperately needed in the 21st-century church. Calling oneself a Christian doesn’t necessarily make it so, and I think what is needed in the 21st. century is the same thing that has been needed in every century, and that is a personal relationship with the person of Jesus Christ, which carries with it an attitude adjustment. Nice post, CDBJ |
