NotHing bUt tHe blOod

As the end of the world draws near, we as Christians should begin to be even more fervent in carryin out the great commission that Jesus gave us (Mat 28:19-20). The harvest is great but the workers few. Let not that be the situation now cz the coming of our LORD is ever so close. I am sure u wudn wana c hell filled wit all ur loved ones. SO....

Before i begin, what inspired me to write this is because of a song, an old hymn titled "nothing but the blood of Jesus". Old song but yt so powerful its meanin

Chorus:
Oh precious is that flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Verse 1:
What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus

As u all know, we have been cleansed n redeemed by the blood of Jesus n im sure this is such gud new cz we are now counted righteous and whole again! And if dis is such gud new, how can we just keep it 2 ourselves?? Just as u have discovered a place that sells the best "char koay teow", wudnt u tell all ur frens bout that place? now ask urself this..what is beta news? Char koay teow (food wich is of no eternal value) or bout the work Christ has done 4 us on d cross (wich is of eternal value)?

and if u haven been sharing the gospel wit ur frens, i hope that ur reason 4 nt doin so is that ur shy or afraid of wat dey mite tink cz if any1 is ashamed of me (Jesus) and my words in this aduletrous and sinful generation the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels (Mark 8:38).

Anyway 4 dos hu duno how 2 convince people bout the gudness of God, i have tot n heard bout wat makes Christianity so different from other religions.

1. Christianity is NOT a religion..it is a relationship wit God! a shocker to sum but it is a fact. If u were 2 tok bout other religions, its quite obvious that is all rituals and things they do to make them luk "spiritual". Wherelse in Christianity, we are not based on so many rituals n its so free flowing. Can u imagine a buddhist monk goin in to free-flow worship while prayin to their god. In fact all that most religions do is juz a prayer that is memorized n nt reli fr d heart.
   
   Adding on to that, if u were to c the Lord's prayer the first line says Our FATHER...God is our FATHER so imagine wat dat makes us. CHILDREN of GOD!! n s children v hav so many privelleges as u all noe cz im sure all of u have parents. and if God is KING then we are prince n princess. So we would be goin round callin ea oder "Yes Your Highness Andrew or yes ur highness Andrew..etc..(u gt d idea lar..) haha.."
   
   
2. NO other god in this world eva gave up deir life 4 the people. Yes this is one of d strongest n most powerful points u cud use to share cz the one n ONLY God to have died for us is Jesus! and in my point of view i juz dun c how ppl cud ignore the fact dat sum1 loved dem so much to the point of givin His life 4 dem. I would be so touched that sum1 would do dat 4 me.
   
3. Transformation in Christianity starts from the inside. gud works is nt sumtin you have to be force to do but rather is a nature of you cz it says in the bible ,"If anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW creation; the old has passed gone the new has come!(2 Cor 5:17)". Luking at other religions, they do so much works as tho tryin to force dem down n sumhow it neva seems to change deir life.

Anothe way u cn share the gospel and in fact is one of the tings that creates an opportunity to share is ur LIFE!!. The world watches all our actions and when they c dat v r diff fr dem, always joyful despite the problems that we face, this would raise questions in their head bout how com we are so diff n den there..u have ur chance to share!!

So u cn c that Christianity is one of a kind. SO go forth and make disciples of all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
