The essence of being a Christian is living out one’s life with this only rule: Without Christ, one is nothing. We exist because of CHRIST – Gen 2:7. We love because of CHRIST – 1 John 4:19. We even look the way we are because of CHRIST – Gen 1:26-27.
The Bible says in John 1:1-4 that CHRIST was right there with God the Father and God the Holy Spirit at Creation. In John 1:14, it affirms that CHRIST is the WORD depicted in John 1:1-4.
Believers were first noted to be called Christians in the book of Acts - Acts 11:25-26. We as Christians want to live out our lives as faithful followers of CHRIST, living it out with the notion that all glory belongs to Him and Him alone. Therefore, we claim that “Without CHRIST, we are nothing.”
We as human beings are imperfect and sinful – Romans 3:23 and until the very day which our eyes are open to this fact by God the Holy Spirit, we will never be able to commune with God at all. Our spirits are dead; our souls follow blindly to our flesh which will only lead us to death and separation from God for all eternity.
Christ Jesus came into this world to give life to our spirits in order that our spirits can take charge to lead our souls to God. In order to give us life. Spiritual life. And in turn, we will be called children of God once we believe in His name – John 1:12.
What a GREAT BLESSING from the only True God!
Everyone needs to be saved through CHRIST – John 3:16-17. Let’s us stretch our hands to receive this blessing from CHRIST today.
