The Real Church: If you are a real Christian you are a follower of Jesus.
As I had mentioned in my last blog the church is the body of believers/children of Christ. Christianity is not just a religion but the real body of people that follows Jesus. If you are a real Christian you are a follower of Jesus. Christianity is not a religious ritual or just religion, It is more than that, it's a personal one on one relationship with Jesus our Lord and the Holy Spirit. The God head is God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit three in One. God needs us and want us to be apart of His Kingdom the Kingdom of Heaven. Too often we as people loose focus on the things that matter. For example, we get hung up over what a certain person said, or we look at a Christian and think they are just trying to be perfect. We should not get hung up over what someone said in church or think that Christians are just trying to be perfect. It is much more than that! We as people all need the SAVIOR Jesus who died on the cross for all of us. When we accept Him as Lord and Savior we then get the Holy Spirit to guid us and are a new creation. When we walk in the SPIRIT then we will NOT fulfill the lusts of the flesh. When we are LEAD by the SPIRIT of God we will make the right decisions. So may I ask, "Why all the judgment from certain christians and non christians?" I believe it comes from either misunderstanding or just plain loose misjudgment. So let us not misunderstand but understand. Let us love one another realizing that this earth is temporary the way it is now and Christ is coming back eventually. - G.S
