To live is Christ .

We live in an age where people live in search of " happiness " some spend all their money trying to buy things and thinking that "if I can have that, I will be happy " other give themselves to sexual passions and spend their lives seeking for meaning in life ,doing those things which are the privilege of marrieage , the words " fornication and adultery " are foreign to many today .Families , spent all their savings going and gambling what they could have used to benifit the one who is need . Life in this posmodern age ,has become self centered , and people kill to steal that which they can not have . The word of God , gives us timeless lessons of faith and surrender , the apostle Paul in the book of Philipians says " For me to live is Christ and to die is gain" What ! To live is christ ? in America we have freedom , and we can say "Iam a christian " and the most people can do is , laugh at you . But in the time of the apostle Paul to be A Christian was to be willing to die for Christ , in fact , when the apostle wrote those words , he was a prisoner for preaching the gospel . Many of us , say today that we are Christians , but our lives deny our own words , there is no difference between the person who believes in God and the Atheist , both live the same way ! But not Paul , the question we need to ask is , if we know that we are not doing good , how can we get right with God , How can we have that passion for Christ , ready to die for him. I want to submit to you ,that we need to see Christ , the apostle Paul in his way to Damascus , he met Jesus and after that his life was not the same . Have you met Jesus ,really ? Has your life change ? are you doing the same things you were doing before , with the only difference that now you hide ? friends is time to surrender our lives to Jesus and to trust him as his word , and to learn to live by everyword that preceeds out of the mouth of God . Blessings in the name of Jesus .
