Memorial Day
Playing with Nora
Some time back we were playing with our Grand Daughter, Nora.
She was standing on the couch and would fall back and we would catch her.
It was so funny, because every time she would fall back she did it with such complete abandon.
Trust fall: team building exercise to build on trust of others.
Trust fall fail.
Video of young girls and one girl closed her eyes and fell forward.
Luke
Understand, there is a difference between belief in Christ and faith in christ.
As I studied this passage, I just knew I had to be missing something.
Maybe the word they used for belief was different here than anywhere else the Word.
It wan’t so.
Then bible verses started coming to me like:
The difference is the childlike faith we accept that which we believe.
See, while the Bible uses these words interchangeably, the context in which they are used, makes all the difference.
Saving Faith carries the attributes of:
Belief, but with it ads Action, and confidence.
Easy believism vs. Saving Faith
I don’t like the derogatory term “Easy Believism” because it makes is sound like you have to work hard for your salvation, But nothing could be further from the truth.
Easy believism says that mere intellectual assent is enough to be saved.
That you can say a prayer, join a church and your saved.
Points of agreement
Christ died for our sins.
Justified by faith alone.
Sinners cannot earn/buy divine favor.
God requires no pre-salvation reformation and believers are saved before faith produces and righteous works.
Eternal life is a gift from God.
Christians can and do sin.
Here is where we differ.
The Methodist Church recently had some backlash because in a 6 to 3 vote decided not to consecrate a openly gay Pastor woman who is married to another woman.
Saving Faith in Christ carries with it:
Repentance/ Unconditional surrender
Knights templar example
Understanding that it is all Him
You don’t need to get cleaned up to come to Christ
Changes Lives
Philippians 1:
The real test:
Our behavior is a indicator of our faith
But....If a building is on fire and we meet a guy in the hall....
where are you?
