Jesus is part of who and what I am, it is not an add-on

 


Yes I take my Christianity seriously. This is who I am. It is not just an add-on to what is otherwise busy life. 

My identity is not on what I achieve, how high my intellect is or how much money I make. My identity is Christ. 

So forgive me if I take the Jesus thing seriously. He took the matter of dying at the Cross seriously and from my point of view the least I can do is to take the new life He gave me seriously also. 

Just because I keep on posting about the Bible it doesn't mean I have everything figured out. On the contrary I don't. And that is why I keep sharing Him who accepts me, warts and all. 

I am not ashamed of Him. How can I?

Hebrews 12:2 [2]fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

He despised the shame to author and perfect the faith. Why will I be embarrassed about Him?

I don't care what others think about me. They probably think I am a fanatic or a weirdo. Honestly it will not kill me. Why would I care about the opinions of others who didn't endure the Cross for me? I'd rather care about the opinion of The One who died on my behalf. 

Let us take this Jesus thing seriously.

Manatiling nakapokus sa biyaya. Huwag ninyong hayaang nakawin ng mga huwad na guro ang inyong karapatang mag-isip ng doktrina. 

(Kung gusto ninyo ng karagdagang impormasyon, bisitahin ninyo kami. May pagtitipon kami sa Dahat, kada Linggo, kada 1:00-3:00 pm. Sana manampalataya kayo at kita-kita tayo.

Isang mahalagang paalala: ang mga blogs na ito ay personal kong opinyon at eksposisyon; hindi ito opisyal na pananaw ng Partido Christian Bible Church. Kung nais ninyong malaman ang kanilang opisyal na posisyun, magtanong kayo sa mga matanda ng simbahan. Ang Nieto Bible Page ay isang hiwalay na ministri mula sa PCBC at independiyente rito. Nakikipagtipon ako sa PCBC, pero may personal akong kumbiksiyon sa mga bagay. Bagama't miyembro (muli) ako ng teaching and ruling leadership ng PCBC, anumang mabasa ninyo rito ay hiwalay sa kanila. Anumang nasusulat ay aking pananagutan. 

Kung nakatulong sa inyo ang mga blogs na ito, mangyaring pasubscribe at pashare sa iba. Ibahagi natin at ikalat ang mga Salita ni Cristo at ang libreng biyaya ng Diyos sa lahat ng dakong Filipino ay lenggwahe. Salamat po.)
