Brethren if we are deeply rooted in Christ as we keep saying then what kind fruit are we producing? Before we answer 2 Corinthians 13:5 advise us to examine ourselves to see whether we are still faithful to our master. Ask yourself these questions: Do I still have the hunger of the word of God and things of God as I used to before? Do I crave for holiness? Do I desire to be away from sin, does the bible or the holy spirit correct me when I SIN?
According to John 1:12-13 the Bible reminds us that we are God’s children, in short, we are a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17) so now why the carnality (that old sinning person that shows up from time to time)??
How Deep Are We Rooted In Christ By Now!
What I mean is as per 1 Corinthians 5:9-11 It seems that most of us still call ourselves Christians, yet we still drink, smoke, fornicate and even dress like the world, act like the world and do everything like the world. But we keep saying that we love Jesus and people shouldn’t judge us. Which type of Christianity is this? Is it another gospel, bible etc from seducing spirits of devils? Or what???(2 Corinthians 11:4“ For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough.”).
Most of us are Sunday to Sunday Christians who have a form of godliness(pretenders). But with little or now actions to back our Christianity (2 Timothy 3:5″having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.”).
According to Colossians 2:5-7 most Christians have a root system as that of a flower and anything can throw them off balance. But we should be unshaken due to our root system in Christ. So, we should grow up and that is why we do fasts, prayers etc
Remember If we don’t read our Bible very well and learn to pray and fast, we will be easy target for false prophets, apostles, pastors etc (Ephesians 4:14-15” Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. 15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.”).
Brethren don’t be like the pharisees who didn’t want to listen to Jesus and where willing to listen to stories and follow their traditions (2 Timothy 4:2-4). No wonder nowadays people don’t want their hearts changed or anything like that. But they want to hear what suits them and makes them happy.
Isaiah 30:9-11
9 They are always rebelling against God, always lying, always refusing to listen to the Lord’s teachings. 10 They tell the prophets to keep quiet. They say, “Don’t talk to us about what’s right. Tell us what we want to hear. Let us keep our illusions. 11 Get out of our way and stop blocking our path. We don’t want to hear about your holy God of Israel.”
According to 1 Thessalonian 4:7-8 Most preachers and believers want religion and not God. Their actions reject what Jesus preached in the Bible. They reject holiness and hence as a result they reject Christ.
Lastly John 9:4 reminds us that we must do what Christ sent us to do when there is still time. So, Let’s do something while there is some time. People are dying without knowing true Christ. What are you going to do today to save those lives??
