Rethinking Religion - Rethinking Devoted Commitment
Published 2 years, 5 months ago
Description
John 12:20-33
It's natural to assume that Christianity is just like every other religion: just one brand of rules and thoughts about good living among many, demanding commitment and devotion from its followers. There's some truth to that. Christianity is about commitment, and it does require devotion and commitment to be a believer, but that's not the commitment that the Christian faith is built on. It's not about what you can do for God. Thinking that way just leads to exhaustion, failure, and disillusionment. No, Christianity is all about Jesus' determined commitment to God's plan of salvation, and his devoted love for you–love that drove him to the cross without a second thought?
