Mixing the Two

Mixing the Two

Ever heard of "Double Standards? Too many times we have "Christians" (I put that in ""because that's what they refer to themselves as while their lives proclaim otherwise) doing the otherwise unacceptable... just because you say it doesn't make you a Christian. The Bible says not all who call my name are mine and not all will inherit the Kingdom of God. A friend of mine once told me… Going to Church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a Garage makes you a car. Worse off, we have Christians who have compromised their Christian values to fit into this world... this is a sad truth that even we have fallen victim to too many times to count. But Romans tells us not to conform to the standards of this world. We are instead encouraged to be transformed by the Renewing of our minds through the Holy Spirit.
Christians!!!!!  "My name is shamed among the gentiles because of you... "Ring a bell??" How can the same mouth that is used to proclaim God's glory be used to spew foul words? 
God tells us that the body part that makes you sin, cut it off!! Better to inherit lose an Arm than the Kingdom of God!!
You will have to let go of a lot of things for the kingdom of God. You will be required to make Sacrifices for The God you serve. This is the cross that you bear. This is the race you run. This is your war to fight. We have had to make those Sacrifices. We will still make those Sacrifices if that's what proclaiming His word requires. We have decided to not conform to the standards of the world. We were reading in the Book of Daniel. Chapter 1, where Daniel and his three friends said no to eating food that the royal court served. This defiance of worldly standards proved their love and faith in God more than anything else. This is the Path we have chosen to So we are yet to walk through Fire Singing (the Irony of being Artists eh??) be denied our Daily Bread, and even be thrown in the Lion's Den. We are ready… Take us on… Give us a Challenge anything… For our God we will do it… Romans 1:16. Yes we are Unashamed of the Gospel!!!! Represent
