« What are you? »

Question: When is a Christian NOT a Christian?

Are you REALLY a Christian?
If you claim to be a Christian and are aware of Gods warning in the Bible that those who die in their sin, spend eternity in Hell, but you're not telling people about Jesus at every opportunity, then you have no love and may not even be saved yourself.

He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. - 1 John 4:8

The Bible says that those who don't obey the Word of God will come under His judgement. Here is what Jesus said:

Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature. - Mark 16:15

Why call ye Me, "Lord, Lord," and do not the things which I say?" - Luke 6:46

If you know someone unsaved and are not sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ then their blood is on your hands.

When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in this sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. - Ezekiel 3:20

Now you know what your primary responsibility is are a follower of Jesus Christ. Go and obey.

The Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost." - Luke 19:10

Letter From an Atheist
"You are really convinced that you've got all the answers. You've really got yourself tricked into believing you're 100% right. Well, let me tell you just one thing. Do you consider yourself to be compassionate of other humans? If you're right, as you say you are, and you believe that, then how can you sleep at night? When you speak with me, you are speaking with someone who you believe is walking directly into eternal damnation, into an endless onslaught of horrendous pain which your "loving" god created, yet you stand by and do nothing.

If you believed one bit that thousands every day were falling into an eternal and unchangeable fate, you should be running the streets mad with rage at their blindness. That's equivalent to standing on a street corner and watching every person that passes you walk blindly directly into the path of a bus and die, yet you stand idly by and do nothing. You're just twiddling your thumbs, happy in the knowledge that one day that "walk" signal will shine your way across the road.

Think about it. Imagine the horrors Hell must have in store if the Bible is true. You're just going to allow that to happen and not care about saving anyone but yourself? If you're right then you're an uncaring, unemotional and purely selfish (expletive) that has no right to talk about subjects such as love and caring."

This is from a tract that Tomps gave me a few days ago. What do you think when you read this? Is your soul at perfect peace when you read this? Can you say that you can speak with a clean conscience to the atheist who wrote this?

Consider this tract not a condemnation; rather, pick it up, learn from it. If what he says is true, do something about it TODAY. You can respond in anyway; there are none believers EVERYWHERE around you. At work, in school, college, university, extra curricular activities, on the bus or train. Take that extra step. It's not an option, nor is it a gentle request; it is your obligation as a follower of Jesus Christ. If you are convicted, or are scared, know that God is with you EVERYWHERE YOU GO, not just when you are happy and engaged in fellowship with fellow believers.

Exodus 23:23-25 says:

My angel will go ahead of you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites and Jebusites, and I will wipe them out. Do not bow down before their gods or worship them or follow their practices. You must demolish them and break their sacred stones to pieces. Worship the LORD your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water.

Break people's hearts with the news of Jesus Christ, his blood on the cross and God's never ending supply of grace to make up and erase whatever our past conceals, regardless of how dirty or shameful it may seem back then.

God HIMSELF, from HIS own MOUTH promises you in Isaiah 43:2-3

When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.

For I am the LORD, your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I give Egypt for your ransom,
Cush [a] and Seba in your stead.

Do not fear, because He's got your back. He's a God of promises; here He has promised to keep you safe. Go and spread the Word.

Keep Chasing Him.
