Being a 'Christian' means more than simply not murdering people...for I know many a people who are not Christians who choose not to murder one another.
Being a 'Christian' means you are a follower of Christ. You build an intimate relationship with Him. You learn the characteristics of our Lord and learn to hear His voice. You acknowledge the Holy Spirit and bear fruit of a person who is daily learning, growing, and transforming to look more like that of our Creator.
So you've never murdered someone. BIG. DEAL.So you don't cuss much or drink much. Maybe you went to church when you were younger and believe still in the God you grew up hearing about. Maybe on Easter and Christmas you visit a local congregation with your parents. Does that make you a Christian? --No more then slapping on a red robe and sitting on top of a reindeer ones a year makes me Santa Clause!
Your life is missing something and you know that you are less because it's not there. You don't know what it is and every now and then you feel compelled to look for it. But what finds you instead is the porn you are addicted to, the sex with your boyfriend, the bottom of a bottle, Facebook, shopping....and about a million other things that the enemy uses to get in the way of you crawling back in Papa's lap and letting Him read you a different story.
So when you say you are a "Christian"...do you mean it?
In Him,
Meg
