Is Christian Life A Dream?


Think of the contemplated. We can simply imagine and be fascinated with the thought of providing the entire selves and lives to God without really doing it, and just think about it as being completed since we have predicted it.

The primary part — that we may be attracted to an idea of totally following Christ without ever really doing so — isn’t new. Many begin a journey they did not finish, sprout for the moment time, only to be choked out with the worldly care and finally go out, since they were never actually with us in 1 John 2:19. There are many that handed much for the time, however, fall short of providing their entire being to Jesus.

However, after a bit further of observation, something which is terrifying for those who considered it: Some who refused to provide their whole being to Jesus died without understanding it. They think that they live wholehearted disciples since they have predicted it.

“Many people give much, but drop short of providing their entire self to Christ.”


Furthermore, they are living in a religious vision, not able to see the true condition. They portray themselves picking up cross-over, forsaking sin, believing the promises, abiding in Christ, loving God, being packed with his Holy Spirit and enclosed in God’s eternal, promise love — but primarily in their mind. They build, but upon those sands, because they perceived the word of Christ words, but not obeyed them in Matthew 7:24–27.

Thoughts Built Upon the Sand


We’re aware of the spiritual desire to some degrees and to grow deeper in Jesus Christ

How often have mistaken mere thinking about the prayers is for praying, mere regret over sins for repentance, simple, well-wishes towards the neighbor for love, simply hearing the words for doing it, or simply imagining for obedience?

Captured fantasy

We drifted towards compromise and then named it as tolerance. We drifted towards disobedience and then called it freedom. We drifted towards superstition and then named it faith. We treasure the indiscipline of losing self-control and then named it relaxation. We droop towards powerlessness and then delude ourselves to thinking that we have run over legalism. We glide toward godlessness and then convince ourselves that we had been liberated.

The spiritual unreality is not safe. The Pharisees, the early churches, the disciples, and the many that awaits the judgment day had been deceived.

Enchanted Enemies



Several of the enemies of Jesus among the Pharisees and the scribes are suffering under the spiritual delusion. They were not consciously evil. They’d assured themselves that they knew God and they fasted and prayed. They tithed through the way downward to their spices. And they taught and also explained and even crossed the seas in making disciples.

However, in reality, they close the kingdom doors in the faces of people. They deserted the weightier matter of the law. They’re showing the clean exterior, but stayed defiled on their inside. They are making disciples of hell. The irony of ironies, they’d murdered the Lord of praise, hate him without cause. Through their delusion, they keep on to bully the church, killed God’s people in their service to the Lord from their perspective. Christ warned the disciples of people: “They’ll place you out from the synagogues. Certainly, the hour comes when whoever killed you might thought that he’s giving services to God” in John 16:2. Everyone thought that they served the Lord from the Old Testament, though they slaughtered his Jesus and the sheep.

Pathway to Partnership With Mission Discipleship

Another important document has been approved at a General Assembly, the policy statement of a Worldwide Ministries Division that was entitled as “Do Missions in Partnership.” The partnership is intrinsic to the Trinitarian nature of God and the incarnation of mission. Everybody should take part in God’s task in partnership with the Lord , with the agencies and the partner churches from around the world and with our hurting world. Shifting beyond the ingrained paternalistic outline to equal 2-way missions and the authentic partnership is the challenge before us. Six essential mission attitudes on pathway to partnership of basic discipleship: 1. Humility - the mission now should start with the recognition, the repentance and the abandonment of the attitudes of pride, condescension, superiority and arrogance. Humility entailed the openness to take, to learn from & to be corrected by others. 2. Compassion - when we give money, feed the hungry, build churches, preach the gospel an...

What is Causing so Many Young People to Abandon Their Faith?

Young people are abandoning their faith in Jesus Christ as Lord in unprecedented numbers. A lack of genuine biblical discipleship during their formative years and beyond may be the primary cause. People who have not been raised in the ways of Christ and who do not really know Him will reject Him, and He will eventually reject them as well.  According to a survey conducted by the Barna Group, only about 1% of young people in the United States have a biblical perspective. A biblical worldview, according to the Barna Group, is described as believing in the following main points: God is the supreme Creator of the heavens and the earth and reigns over the entire universe today Satan is a human entity, not a metaphor An individual cannot win his way into God's realm by good deeds Jesus Christ led a sinless life on earth God is the supreme Creator of the heavens and the earth and reigns over the entire universe today Intellectualism and cynicism are dominant in contemporary western cultur...

What You Should Know Before Starting a Discipleship Group

The discipleship crowd is the gathering of Christians who meet on a regular basis to study the Word of God and to live life together by sharing meals, helping one another, and bearing one another's sorrows. Engage If you wish to lead a discipleship group , you should involve a community that is comparable to the early church described in Acts. The believers there met in a communal worship service. They got to know each other in a private setting, their own houses, and most importantly, they shared meals. Jesus intended for us to be in a secure community where we might thank Him and share our honest emotions. When beginning a discipleship group, consider how you can make it a safe environment for all participants. Don't just preach at them or reel off a list of reasons why they should attend to your discipleship group; instead, love them as Jesus would and begin to pray for them on a daily basis to guarantee your discipleship group is a safe place. It goes without stating t...
