Christianity
What does it cost to become a Christian?
Nothing! Faith is a gift paid for in full by the Blood of Christ.
But...
to be and live as a Christian has a great cost to our pride, for it calls for our complete surrender of our will to the Will of God.
If someone has to ask if you are a Christian, you are doing something wrong. Jesus should show to all we come in contact with if we have truly accepted Christ and given ourselves to Him and His Will. Because we are prideful and stubborn, the cost of living as a Christian rises and becomes more difficult.
For any gift to be useful to us we must be willing to read the rulebook, follow directions, and care for it.
Do you read your rulebook ( the Bible) and follow it's directions?? Or are you one of those who knows it all and only reads directions when things go wrong?
