Christianity, it is an 'easy' assemble religion.
I was processing with God recently about Christianity and how others perceive our faith. It came to me that they may perceive it to be 'easy'. Nothing you need to do.
However, last night it struck me, while talking to some good mentor-like friends of mine that actually, the other faiths are the easy religion because there is no 'faith' involved. Their 'faith' is actually a mathematical or logical equation. It says if I do this, and that I will end up as this.
But this is not the case in our faith. It is harder, and yet easier, to give up everything you know as logical to trust God who is the Father of all and Sovereign to logic itself.
What Christ offers is completely different to any other 'faith'. In every other Faith you are told hot to live in order to gain a higher position, an idealic feeling or even a numbness. However what the Christian faith offers is unique. Christ offers the reward or goal and teaches you how to live now! It is the higher position given that spurs on the believer to become more like the generous God that gave.
All we need to do is accept the gift ('confess') and be prepared to change (to 'repent')
you get me?
