YOU CAN BE BORN AGAIN AND STILL ACT CRAZY

Please understand that salvation is not automatic. Jesus shed His blood for the entire world but people are not going to be saved until they acknowledge Christ as their Lord and receive Him as their Saviour. It is not automatic to be born again, if you don’t acknowledge Christ, accept Him, confess Him as your Lord and receive Him as your Saviour. So, even though the price is paid and we are released and emancipation is declared, we need to know by the preaching of the Word to respond before we are saved.

When you got born again, it was your spirit that got saved and not your soul and not your body. When the Bible says “if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature and old things are passed away and all things are become new”, it is referring to your spirit and not your soul and not your body.

Salvation is in three folds. You were saved. What was saved? Your spirit. You are being saved, what is being saved? Your soul. How is the soul being saved? By the renewing of the mind.

The Bible says “don’t be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of the mind”! So the transformation is not of your spirit, but of your soul. The spirit is saved, God dwells in the spirit but the soul is damaged!

MY DEFINITION OF SUCCESS

Jeremiah 45:5 – “And seekest thou great things for thyself? Seek them not: for, behold, I will bring all evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.”

My definition of success is how you end the race. But if you define success as being great, living in the best of houses, driving the best of cars and being very big; then you are a disappointment to God and humanity.

True success is how you end the journey. If you have this understanding, it will always keep you humble, because we are all still in the race!

What the world call success is not what God calls success. For example, the Bible says….

If you are looking for greatness for yourself; the bible says don’t seek it.

Eph. 4:28 – “Let him that steal, steal no more but let him labour that he may have to give who have none”

The reason you work is to make a difference in the life of others. Unless you get this understanding, you are a danger to humanity and the society, also greedy and selfish.

So, our reason for making money is not even for us and our immediate family alone but to help humanity.

We have to be careful on the decisions we make. Success is not about the car you drive but the how you got the car, how did
