Will the true believers please stand!

This morning I fell upon a wonderful, wonderful article! You can read it below. I just want to take a moment to share some "snippets".....

" The truth is that Christianity is not a religion at all, it's about a relationship with the one true God through His Son Jesus Christ. "


" Many are living the religious life without knowing the Savior or anything about true Christianity. Don't you know that the enemy of Christ enjoys using these folks to confuse and baffle a searching world! As long as true Christians are ashamed to speak the truth in love and are hiding behind the mask of religion and rituals then the lost world will continue to search and be drawn to various religious practices - never actually meeting the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. "

Wow, way to go Ms. Sexton! Plainly and boldly stated! When are believers going to realize it's not about "joining a church" or getting "churchy".... it's not about teaching Sunday school or supporting ministries. It's all about HIM. It's not about us, and what "we're doing". It's about lifting up the name of the Lord, about glorifying the king of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Happy Reading!

  1. This has nothing to do with your post, but I read Heart Issues for the LDS and quite enjoyed the dialogue today. As a fellow believer I loved that you didn't back down. Keep it up!

  2. Thanks cassie so much for stopping by and sharing a word of encouragement!! Some days I sure need to hear it! God is good and He sure loves the LDS.. and so do I. It can get frustrating at times when witnessing, but God is faithful. Many are leaving, and I truly rejoice in that!!

    God bless,

  3. No problem, I just try to pray and write only what is truth. I know they don't agree with me. I put forth facts and let God change their minds. :) He is much better at it than I am! By the way, you do NOT look old enought to have 10 kids!

  4. Cassie,

    You're doing a great job!! Actually Christians that have never been mormons can have a great deal of influence. They think those of us who have left are 'apostate'and all wrong in our thinking.

    Thanks for the compliment -- I sure do feel old enough to have 10 kids! :) They keep me young though..running after them.

    God bless,

  5. Hey Gloria, I hope you are doing well. We are busy, busy here with the garden and such. I wanted to say Hi and that I love this statement below:
    "Man's way to reach God is religion. God's way to reach man is JESUS"
    I think that may have to go on my blog somewhere!!!!
