The Truth : You don't need JESUS in your LIFE -----

Harry,

 

Replying to you most times is so hard, coz I wonder weather you make your statements / questions so as to learn, criticize, irritate some people, make some people turn from their faith…. I have never known. I am not sure if anyone has ever forced you to be a Christian, but I pray someday you become one. For now, if you don’t like Christianity, just remain as you are, and leave Christianity alone, unless you want to learn. When the time is right for you, when you want to learn and change, know that Jesus is waiting.

 

Sometimes I think you are misinformed; Christianity isn’t a comfort zone. Salvation is the beginning of a long journey, not “end of suffering” like you say. A Christian can sin just like anyone else, but they don’t do it deliberately, and when they sin, they repent. When tempted, God provides a way out, and its up to us to either take God’s way or sin. God never forces; the choice is always ours (Deuteronomy 30:16,19). A christian can suffer (Read Job) but God will always rescue His Children, weather YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, Harry.

Jesus Himself (I believe you know this from your research) wasn’t a rich person (materially), so a Christian’s wealth isn’t measured materially. A Christian’s blessings are more within than outside. You are not one, so its hard for you to understand the peace, joy, love… that one has when they are born again; its hard to explain to you Harry.

Pls don’t expect Christians to have some marks of “special life” according to you; their lives are in God’s Hands. They suffer pain, lack fees, sleep hungry, fall sick,… everything, but God never leaves them alone, and always comes to their rescue. Our faith has to be tested to be trusted; we have to go through valleys and on mountains, but there is always rest for our souls. At the end of it all, Eternal Life together with Our father in heaven! Like I said, I cant explain to you this feeling. You see like the way you feel in your heart when you see your lovely son, and someone else who doesn’t have one feels…. That’s the feeling; only you understand and can explain.

I look forward to having you accept Jesus in your life one day soon Harry!

 

Regards,

Ford Wilson

This is to the Christian Republic,

It has become increasingly clear to me, over the years, that the message of Jesus Christ, the Gospel of Christ, the teachings of Jesus Christ as the savior of humanity, the teachings that you need him in your life has no basis. I have examined this life folks, over the few years i have lived and there is nothing fundamental can be attributed to someone accepting Jesus as his personal savior.

 

Let us begin by generally accepting some fundamentals about this life. It is full of challenges. Problems even. Some are within you control and some are outside your control. Some are both. Sickness, for example can be within or outside your control. A road accident may be outside your control. A divorce could be both. Getting a job could be out of your control, or within .... 

 

Lets also accept that everyone can get what he wants in life....everyone can be successful, a failure, in all spheres of life, and this could also be within his control or outside his control. 

 

The message of accepting Jesus has always bordered on the fact that by doing so, you improve your lifestyle, you generally become a better person, you relate to others well, you become generous, forgiving, loving, caring, you treat your wife and husband better, just like Jesus taught. By accepting Jesus into your life, eventually your life will be better and better. You will fall sick less, and if you do you will heal faster. And because you pray and fast often, misfortunes will not come your way as much as they do for the heathens.

 

But is this true?

 

The lives of people who accept Jesus are no better than the lives of the other human beings. Not on this earth at least. The problem is that when you accept Jesus, you start imagining your life is being managed by someone else and so you attribute everything to him. This is the worst DOGMA  of ALL TIME. I have seen the so called Children of God getting just as messed up as the rest of the flock. When it comes to happiness, the only parameter for happiness is not Jesus. I have seen very unhappy Christians, saved ones, jobless ones, sick ones, and very prayerful ones. I have also seen very happy atheists. Healthy ones. Wealthy ones. With happy marriages. And very generous, very accommodating. Very reasonable. And they live by the generally acceptable principles of life like honesty, kindness, integrity, hard work etc.

 

You do not need Jesus, just live well, appreciate nature, be kind and honest, and take everything in stride. ALL SHALL BE WELL Goddammit!!
