As a Christian, you profess faith in Christ, but how do your actions reflect this conviction? You chant “Christ is Lord” but do you live as if Christ reigns over your life? Do you genuinely believe the Bible is God’s Word and profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness? How is this truth shaping your thoughts and deeds? Is the Spirit’s miraculous transformation of your heart evident in the way you live? What has changed in your spiritual walk since you first believed? Do you carry on in unrepentant sin? Do you commune with God in daily prayer? Do you pursue wisdom and truth by studying His Word? Have you joined a church and devoted yourself to the weekly assembling of the saints? Do you share the gospel message with unsaved friends and family? Reflect on these questions, and examine yourself honestly.

This is just as much a reminder for me as it is for anybody reading. What are you willing to sacrifice for your loyalty to Christ? What have you given up in your pursuit of truth and holiness? Are you willing to be forsaken by friends and family because of your faith? Are you prepared to lose your career because your employer is coercing you to violate your conscience? Are you ready to be imprisoned and executed because you’re a Christian? If you aren’t even willing to pause the YouTube videos or take a break from Instagram reels for 30 minutes of Scripture reading and prayer, why do you think you would be willing to die for Christ?

Do you not believe you need to take up your cross daily and follow Christ? Do you not believe this life is coming to an end and eternity is approaching? Do you not believe God’s promises are true? Do you not believe your unsaved friends and family are on the path to destruction? What do you believe? Why are you a Christian? Are you just a Christian because you were raised in a Christian household and it’s easy in America right now to tweet out “Christ is Lord” and feel good about yourself, or are you a Christian because you know this is the ultimate truth of reality?

Acts 4:17-18 KJV
But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

Good morning, Jesus is Lord ☕️ ☀️

“And I tell you, everyone who acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man also will acknowledge before the angels of God, but the one who denies me before men will be denied before the angels of God.”

Luke 12:8-9

Good morning frens and happy thanksgiving 🍁
