Can Authentic Christians Deny Jesus? Part 5
We need to stop thinking that the meaning of denying Jesus only refers to a legal situation where the Christian stands before judges and magistrates and faces death. That certainly is one example and it is happening in various places throughout the world right now, today. But there are many ways in which Christians deny Jesus in their daily lives for one reason or another. In the end, it all comes down to denying Him if we do not share the good news or refuse to mention Him for fear of the world.
Can Authentic Christians Deny Jesus? Part 4
So what is our commitment with Jesus when we became Christians? It seems like too often, we tend to think of it in terms of what we are allowed to do and what we are not allowed to do. In other words, being a Christian means following a list of do’s and don’ts, right? Have you ever felt that way? It reminds me of the way the Prodigal Son tended to think in Luke 15:11-32. That young man had some pent-up anger toward his father. The son saw himself as being no better than a servant, even though that was certainly not the case. Because of the son’s incorrect thinking, he related to his father in a very unhealthy (because he was wrong) way. That unhealthy attitude created within him anger, which eventually prompted him to walk away from his father…after he insisted that he receive his inheritance first, of course!
