This is a sermon
about two choices - Christian or Pagan
No humanistic,
eclectic, pan-theistic, or subjective options.
Absolutes are ok.
The laws of our land
are not universally accepted and have been found with theoretic fault,
but they still govern us.
Let’s assume you
are choosing Christian
What have you
chosen? Consider the vast contrast in definition
of Christian
and Pagan.
Christian, JESUBUCHS, an
un-mixed follower of Christ and His teachings.
Pagan, VILLAGER,
un-centered – not of Christian or Abrahamic descent.
Easy enough. Or is it?
The shrinking contrast of Christian and Pagan is evident.
Jesus
said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Jesus’ claim to be
the truth is verifiable.
Philosophically, in
moral, spiritual, and reasonable evidence.
Objectively, in geography, history, and genealogy.
Ultimately, by faith,
like any other belief system.
Cue the snake.
Satan has come upon
the scene to war against your choice of Christian.
Accomplishing that
with ideologies that infiltrate our worldview and remove the contrast between Christian
and pagan.
And Christian
has settled for a way of living that is anything but Christian.
How do we know that
we have made the choice of Christian or Pagan?
Simple evidence. Christian loves because God is
love.
Do you see revolutionary
love in your life?
A love for God and His
words, a love for man and his welfare.
He who turns his ear
from the poor man’s child will cry himself and not be heard
Selfishness. Inaction. Autonomy.
Love? God? Christian?
Has Satan
accomplished his task of changing your choice?
Seek a revolutionary
God of love who begets revolutionary kids of love called Christian
How do we know the
difference between Christian and Pagan?
Simple evidence. Christian is holy because God is
holy.
A life centered
around a holy God will have no idols near it for fear of awakening his jealous
anger.
God’s holiness will evict
Satan from wresting in our ideologies and removing the contrast between Christian
and Pagan.
We need a thousand
personal revivals.
We have lost our
hatred for sin and are living with transgressions.
Judging. Hypocrisy.
Sexual sin. Holy? God?
Christian?
Embracing His holiness
brings a revolutionary contrast between Christian and Pagan.
Christian. Is Christ and His love your choice?
Christian. Is Christ and His holiness your choice?
Supreme affection for
one thing produces complacency toward all of its rivals.
Your choice begins
today again. In just a few minutes. Unhindered by Satan. This is you with God.
If you have been
duped into removing the contrast between Christian and Pagan, are you enraged
enough to change?
Will you widen the
contrast between the pagan deceptions you may be living and
the Christian
truth you should be living?”
A sermon of two
choices. Christian or Pagan
Will you make the right choice. The choice to be Christian?
