Speak the Truth Posted bykrisshetterJuly 2, 2020July 6, 2020Posted inUncategorized View this post on Instagram Yes, the only way. Why, as Christians, are we so afraid to say it? Why, as Christians, are we so afraid to trust God and speak out loud what we believe? I’d venture to say because our “faith leaders” have failed to challenge us with how to live out and speak out the truth of our faith with love. . I heard a great sermon this weekend by a pastor who has had an epiphany about this. He says, “If our biggest message as Christians to the world is ‘we are nice people’ then maybe we aren’t following Jesus.” Wow! He also said, “A Christ-rejecting world does not reject ‘nice people.’” Noodle on that one a bit. . If you need confirmation on this just read Acts 5, 7 & 9. When we have intimacy with God and stand for Jesus we will face persecution. We don’t need to go looking for it — just living out the truths of our faith and knowledge of Jesus will bring conflict. That may scare you. But, as this pastor says, when we live LIKE Jesus loved and WHO Jesus loved we can live without fear. . Where in your life are you rejecting the truth of Jesus? Pray today for a light to shine on that place and for wisdom in bringing it out of the darkness. . #matthiaslotchurch #bold #boldfaith #love #jesus #thewaythetruththelife #god #truth #christian #christ #light A post shared by Kris Shetter (@krisshett) on Jun 22, 2020 at 9:14am PDT Share this:TwitterFacebookPinterestPrintLike this:Like Loading...
