What Is A True Follower Of Christ?
« on: November 12, 2008, 11:25:59 AM »
Have you ever meet a true Christian? nakasiguro kaba nga ang imong igsuon tinuod nga naga sunod ug naga puyo sa Kristuhanong kinabuhi?" Igsuon " Have you attended a church full of true Christians? Are you sure? What is it that makes a person a true Christian or a Christ like?
The Philippines calls itself a Christian nation, so as the United States and the rest of the commomwealth nations. Some so called Christian nation even have an inscription that say's " In God We Trust ", that is the USA in their currency. In many Western nations, Christianity is the official state religion. Yet in our mixed-up, confused world, there are more than 400 sects and denominations calling themselves "Christian". They all have somewhat different beliefs and practices. Even so, every one of them is named after Jesus Christ! Could it be because, rather partly because of this, many non- Chrisatians scoff at the idea that Christianity is directly inspired by God.
Naunsa naman ni oy, no wonder. For many of the greatest wars in modern history have been started by proffesing Christian nations. And statistics show that the incidence of rape, robbery and murder has been skyrocketing in many of the Western, or Asian, so called- "Christian nations for over the past several decades. Ngano kaha?
Could it be that they do not really understand what Christianity is all about? or could it be that, even though millions are heavily involved in "churchianity", they do not really grasp-- or live by-- the plain, clear teachings of Christ? adto sa ta sa history, i qoute: Modern philosopher Soren Kierkegaard, in his Atteck Upon Christendom, wrote: "The Christianity of the New Testament simply does not exist. Millions of people through the centuries have little by little cheated God out of Christianity, and have succeded on making Christianity exactly the opposite of what it is in the New testament". KInsa man siya nga musulti ana? part of the answer is in the fact that the greatest and most bloody wars in all human history have been waged primarily in europe-- the very heart of western, "Christian Civilization". In fact, the proffesing Christian church directly instigated a series of "holy wars" during the Middle ages, called the "Crusades". Here is one description of the supposed blessings which "Christians" put on the murderous and bloodthirsty activities of the Crusaders: " The knight who joined the Crusades might thus indulge the bellicose side of his genius--under the aegis and at the bidding of the Church; and in so doing he would also attain what the spiritual side of his nature ardently sought-- a perfect salvation and remission of sins. He might butcher all day, till he waded ankle--deep in blood, and then at night fall kneel, sobbing for very joy, at the altar of the Sepulchre--for was he not red from the winepress of the Lord?" Nakahibalo ba kamo nga ang ilang gipang patay mga Jew and Muslims and the True Followers of Christ......
Were these men true followers of the humble carpenter of Nazareth who said: "Love your enemies"? Yet remember mga igsuon that these men called themselves by the name of Christ---"Christian." The same spirit is alive today in our country the Philippines, they are spiritual murderers, they have no regard for the Spiritual Law of God Almighty.....It seems that mearly all western religions,philosophies and sects insist upon applying the name of Christ to their own ideas, teachings and practices. In ancient times, the pagans at least openly and honestly acknowledge their worship of their various "gods" and demon spirits of their own choosing.
Since the life, death and resurrection of the Son of God, a great deception has resulted in the placing of Christ's name on every type of pagan,heathen,perverted philosophy of man that has come along! Shocking, kuyawan mo? kay tinuod baya kini, the fact that many churches, doctrines, ideas and practices of men are called "Christian" proves absolutely nothing! Did Christ start these ideas and institutions? Do they follow His teaching and His example? How can you know? Unsaon man nimo pagkahibalo?
Almighty God inspired the Apostle John to describe the Devil as " that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world" (Rev. 12:9). Again, in Revelation 20:1-3, God describes how Satan will soon be restrained "that he should deceive the nations no more."
These inspired scriptures certainly show that most people and nations have been misled and deceived by Satan the Devil! This, very frankly, is the "Key," which explains why there are so many obvious contradictions in our supposedly "Christian" society. It shows why this world is so mixed up and confused about what the word "Christian" really means. It shows that our civilization has not been following Christ, but has been deceived into going many different ways under Satan's confusing influence! We can go on and on regarding this topic, but i want to cut to the point: and this is the point that i am making, have you studied the Word of God? have you lived the life giving Word of God? Is Jesus Christ in your Bible living in you daily? Do you understand what true Grace is all about? Have you lived by the Grace of God? Search the Scriptures, discover the awesome Power of The Word of God.....I promise you mga igsuon kung inyo lang abrihan ang inyong huna-huna ug kasing-kasing sa mga Pulong sa Atong Amahan, makit-an ninyo ang tinuod nga Kinabuhi,dili relihiyon kung dili Relasyon ni Kristo nga walay maka tupong.....
I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. I do not set aside nor abandon the Grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died in vain. Mga igsuon ang atong Amahan, gihatag ang tanan para kanato, nganong ato mang usik usikan ang iyang mga Grasya nga iyang gihatag kanato, Its a free gift, all you have to do is receive it by faith in Christ, and live your life as Christ lived His life here on earth...It won"t be perfect but take heart, for He has overcome the world, so we must by faith, do the works of Christ here on earth. There are so many scriptures that i can qoute supporting my claim, but i want you to discover it on your own and reap the joy of knowing who God really is...Then you will know if you are a true follower of Jesus Christ... Search the Scriptures, Test every spirit and see if it is true... My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge, Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for me; Because you have forgotten the Law of your God, I also will forget your children. (Hosea 3:6). So my friends and fellow men in Bohol, ponder uopn these sayings, and pray that the Lord God Almighty will open your minds and hearts, to receive His Awesome Gift, "His Son Jesus Christ" and ask Him to send His Spirit to live in you and to teach you all things in righteousness... Maajung adlaw sa inyong tanan diha sa Bohol...

Cheers,
rayborze
