Ok, it’s like 3 o’clock in the morning and I’m up watching LifeChurch.tv’s latest message video on my podcast, and I cannot deny that this message is getting me fired up. I know that God has given me – as a young guy in the Faith – a burden to take His message and fame to the places where mainstream Christianity never reaches. As I was watching Chris Spradlin as he delivered the message, “Unstoppable Vision”, I couldn’t help but realize that LifeChurch.tv embodies the hunger, thirst and desire that is spreading throughout the Body of Christ today. Pastors like Craig Groeschel and Perry Noble have literally “lost their minds” to the point where they have taken on the mind of Christ and they are willing to stop at nothing to see lives impacted and changed by Jesus Christ.

I’m sick and tired of Christians who know more about what a preacher has to say than what God has to say. When I look around it’s hard to see people who are serious about this thing. Most folks just wanna have “church”, yet most of this Christian generation can’t quote a scripture but they can surely tell you every word of T. Pain’s new video or DFL’s new song. We as Christians have become so comfortable in our ignorance that most of us have no idea who God is… we know ABOUT Him, but most of us never get serious enough to know Him. We think being saved means I can just say it and live how I choose… THE DEVIL IS A LIE!!! When you get the chance, take a look at Matthew 7:21-23.
I’m not trying to condemn anybody, but some of us who claim to be Christians and specifically those who’re on this website and in this group need to reevaluate ourselves (2 Corinthians 13:5) because being saved is not just saying you believe but believing (Romans 10:9) and living the life. You have Christians today who feel homosexuality and lesbianism and sex before marriage is okay (1 Corinthians 6:9-11). We’ve gotten to a place where we accept anything. We’ve gotten so detached from the Word of God that we’ve made up our own word. Not saying that being saved means being perfect, but the true essence of Christianity is becoming more like Christ or being perfected which is a daily process AND a lifestyle. We’ve settled for a “Christian name-tag” rather than a “Christian lifestyle”.
