If you believe in Jesus, all of your sins are forgiven. Everything you’ve done in the past and everything you’ll do in the future…it’s all forgiven by God no matter how many times you mess up. Why do I hate this message?
That’s the main message being pushed in this Men’s Group I joined at church.
Don’t get me wrong, I believe the message of Forgiveness should be repeated to those who are already deeply committed Christian believers. Yes…remind them of this message, that no matter how many times they mess up, God still loves them and they are saved. Preach it!
However…when it comes to my generation of lukewarm Christians, the ones who say they believe in Jesus and call themselves Christians without ever having picked up the Bible…not going to lie, dear readers, I hate preaching this message to them.
Why? Let’s talk about it.
- Lukewarm Christians are a Problem
- Ashamed to be Called Christian
- What Does it Mean to “Believe”?
- Do “Believing Christians” Have a Free Pass?
- Should Christians Feel Shame or Guilt?
- Is it Okay to Wait Until the Last Minute to Believe?
- Is Forgiveness of Your Sins the MOST Important Message to Preach?
- Epilogue: Replacing Religion with Equality and “Reason”
