Bulletin 36 - Jesus Christ is life changing
Greetings. The most important experience in any life is a call from God .
This is often unexpected and surprising. It is much more than a pleasant awakening in the morning. It eclipses any other event that we can imagine. The almighty Lord is with us. We are inspired by this infinite power that we have been wondering about. The love surpasses any that we experience in a worldly sense. It gets down to the core of our being, a very touching and loving time. It is life changing and dynamic.It combines all of the elements at once, creating something unimaginably beautiful. That is what connects to create a NEW BORN CHRISTIAN. So this is what the atheists and the unbelievers need to know.After this sublime experience, it is what we do afterwards that really matters. It is not anyone else's decision, it is ours alone for acceptance of the Lord, either YES or N O!If we say YES we are in God's love and protection, a unity of expression with passion and hopeful obedience.God is the creator and master of the universe and the loving Father of all humans, regardless of our race or creed. To Him we owe all praise and veneration. We praise Him in the highest. We begin a new chapter in our lives that is different to all that we have previously known, a period of light that draws us. From the bible we know that Jesus is the 'Light of the world' so it is our dream when Jesus calls us. Without this divine strengthening we can often feel exhausted and unfulfilled.
We are missing having Jesus in us and our entire being in Him for the guidance of our life and for protection from the deceiver.. From there we can have the guidance if we seek this. It is for the glory of God that we are channels for His Love and blessings.So what are we left to do? Our job is to maintain loyalty and obedience through a well maintained program of devotion and bible study to suit our circumstances and to enjoy the light and love. It is also to develop the skills for tasks necessary to spread the word in whatever way that we can, not only to our friends and relations, and to live the life of a true and obedient Christian. These are some of the main requirements to maintain a strong commitment to Jesus. It needs much more than passivity. Most of us are already aware of these points given briefly and it is hoped that the reminder is useful.
AMEN
