The redacted nature of Christianity!

“Christianity calls you to action. I call you to rest in Me and walk by faith.”

There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.” Hebrews 4:9-10

The definition of redacted is to censor or obscure part of a text. This is what Christianity is doing with the truths of God.

Christianity promulgates a works doctrine and minimizes teaching the importance of knowing Christ.

Christ wants you to live in oneness with Him in a vibrant and personal relationship. This will lead to doing authentic works for Him.

The fundamental teaching of Christ Jesus is to rest in Him and live by faith in His promises. This is the beginning and the end of life for a disciple. There is no middle ground. This truth cannot be superseded by keeping laws or doing works.

You will never impress Christ with your works but your unyielding faith in who He is will bring rewards and praise from your Savior.

The calling from God is to know Christ and live in obedience to Him. The priority of Christ is for you to install His values into your lifestyle.

You will never be able to do the works of God but the Living Christ can work through you to perform miracles. The ministry of Christ will start by your expression of faith and the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Ministry has to originate in the work of the Cross. Your ego and self determination has to die on the Cross before you can be effective for Christ.

Jesus wants those around you to see Him in you. This is the core of a powerful ministry. You share the life of Jesus to others without a motive to benefit self.

“My purpose is to give you an abundant life and equip you to become My disciple giving light to those who do not know Me.”
