Just some thoughts that are ultimately not that important but notable in living the Christian life
Living a double-life makes it impossible to share beliefs
Whether its vegetarianism, religion, study methods or some other inconsequesntial belief. Not doing what you claim to believe is a slap in your own face when you try and share it (eg. claiming serangoon garden won ton mee is best but you regularly eat parklane won ton mee when given a choice).
We can’t just live in our little church-bubble-life
This is a good read and I think I’ve said it somewhere before. Putting ourselves into the harvest by spending time with the unsaved builds relations and enables us to love in action.Since we are bound by physical limitations, we need to physically spend time with people in order to evangelize. Nobody will know you love them if you never show it. Its impossibly difficult to show someone you love them without ever being there for them. Skipping church activities to be with family or the unsaved is well.. really nothing bad if you know what you’re doing.
Re-thinking things that have already been thought before
Its not necessarily a bad thing. I haven’t exactly formed my opinion of this. In fact, this is kind of what I’m doing all the time. Since the Bereans continuously re-evaluated new information they received maybe its not bad. I’m just wondering if not examining an opinion yourself is a good trade-off for efficiency in living life. Like, if we keep asking questions, life will be a minefield of questions every time something comes along and we’ll never be able to get anything done. Progress is built on previous progress but maybe we are capable of all the progress we need to have in this short life by just studying directly from the word and ignoring everything that might come along such as teaching methodologies, church practice and such.
How discipleship works and is carried out in this day?
No presentable thoughts.
