I HEAR A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY THEY ARE A CHRISTIANS BECAUSE THEY ARE CHRIST-LIKE. WELL I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU!
1 JESUS DIDN’T START A CHRISTIAN RELIGION HE WAS A HEBREW (JEW) MESSIAH THAT CAME FROM HEAVEN TO SEEK AND TO SAVE THAT WHICH WAS LOST.
2 IN ORDER FOR YOU TO BE CHRIST-LIKE, YOU MUST BE AS A DISCIPLE AND LEARN THROUGH BIBLICAL INSTRUCTION (GODS WORD), NOT THEOLOGICAL INSTRUCTION (MANS INTERPRETATION OF GODS WORD), WHAT BEING CHRIST-LIKE TRULY MEANS.
LET ME BRAKE IT DOWN!
BEING “CHRIST LIKE” HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH BEING A CHRISTIAN OR CHRISTIANITY! BOTH OF WHICH ARE MAN MADE.
BEING “CHRIST- LIKE” HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH LIVING A LIFE THAT IS PLEASING UNTO GOD, AS JESUS DID, FOLLOWING NOT ONLY THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, BUT ALSO THE COMMANDMENTS THAT JESUS GAVE US AS WELL…
A. JESUS SAID IF YOU LOVE ME YOUR WILL KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS ”
B. JESUS ALSO SAID IF ANYONE WOULD COME AFTER ME, LET HIM DENY HIMSELF AND TAKE UP HIS CROSS AND FOLLOW ME. .
_______________________________________________
BEING “CHRIST- LIKE” IS SHARING THE WORD OF GOD WITH OTHERS, (BEING A DISCIPLE) NOT SITTING ON A PEW IN CHURCH BEING ENTERTAINED, BUT BEING DISCIPLED AND SENT OUT TO DISCIPLE OTHERS.
A. AND HE SAID GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD, AND PREACH THE GOSPEL TO EVERY LIVING CREATURE.
_______________________________________________
BEING “CHRIST-LIKE” IS GETTING DOWN ON YOUR KNEES IN DAILY PRAYER AND WORSHIP, SPENDING TIME WITH THE LORD, AND DOING HIS WILL, NOT YOUR WILL.
A. AND IN THE MORNING,RAISING UP A GREAT WHILE BEFORE DAY, HE WENT OUT, AND DEPARTED INTO A SOLITARY PLACE, AND PRAYED.
_______________________________________________
IF YOU WERE “CHRIST-LIKE” YOU WOULD BE KIND TO YOUR FELLOW MAN!, NOT GOSSIPING, BACKBITTING, BARING FALSE WITNESS, OR BEING MEAN AND NASTY AND HAUGHTY, BUT HUMBLE AND LOVING TO ONE ANOTHER.
A. AND THE SECOND IS LIKE UNTO IT, THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR AS THYSELF.
________________________________________________
IF YOU WERE “CHRIST-LIKE” YOU WOULDN’T BE LIVING A SINFUL LIFE AND CLAIM TO BE UNDER GRACE TO EXCUSE YOUR LIFESTYLE AND SINFUL NATURE. SOMEBODY HELP ME HERE!
A. WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN? SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN, THAT GRACE MY ABOUND? GOD FORBID. HOW SHALL WE, THAT ARE DEAD TO SIN, LIVE LONGER THEREIN?
_______________________________________________
IF YOU WERE “CHRIST-LIKE’ AND CALLED INTO THE ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, YOU WOULDN’T BE PREACHING A WATERED DOWN GOSPEL, AND THE PEOPLE OF GOD WOULDN’T BE UNDER THAT TYPE OF TEACHING!
A. BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS, WHICH COME TO YOU IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING, BUT INWARDLY THEY ARE RAVENING WOLVES.
B. FOR THERE SHALL ARISE FALSE CHRISTS, AND FALSE PROPHETS, AND SHALL SHEW GREAT SIGNS AND WONDERS; INSOMUCH THAT, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, THEY SHALL DECEIVE THE VERY ELECT.
______________________________________________
IF YOU WERE “CHRIST-LIKE” YOU WOULD SERVE THE LORD WITH FEAR, AND REJOICE WITH TREMBLING, AS THE SCRIPTURE SAYS,
IF YOU WERE “CHRIST-LIKE” YOU WOULD BE HUMBLE AND MEEK LIKE JESUS,
IF YOU WERE “CHRIST-LIKE” YOU WOULD ALWAYS BE ABOUT THE FATHERS BUSINESS LIKE JESUS.
IF YOU WERE “CHRIST-LIKE” YOU WOULD BE A WILLING SERVANT, IN THAT YOU WOULD SERVE, NOT BE SERVED.
I COULD GO ON AND ON, BUT BY NOW I AM SURE YOU GET IT….
REMEMBER THAT BEING “CHRIST-LIKE” IS FOLLOWING THE EXAMPLE OF JESUS, NOT OF MAN, NOR RELIGION.. JESUS SAID; “AND I SAY ALSO UNTO THEE, THAT THOUGH AT PETER, AND UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH, AND THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT”. NOT ON RELIGION. OR MAN MADE DOCTRINE.
WAKE UP, AND FOLLOW THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, FOR IT IT IS MORROW TO YOUR BONES, REDEMPTION, SALVATION, AND ETERNAL LIFE FOR YOUR SOUL. WE ARE BELIEVERS, FOLLOWER, AND DISCIPLES. BUT FIRST AND FOREMOST, WE ARE SERVANTS
TO YAHWEH GOD, BE ALL THE GLORY THROUGH YESHUA HAMASHIACH (JESUS CHRIST) NOW AND FOREVER MORE!
