Great! Being a Christian and walking with God isn't about 'being religious.' God isn't looking for people to 'be religious', He wants us to accept the truth that He is our creator, that Jesus died for our sins, and to use the instruction book He sent us for life - the Bible.
Are you thinking you'll have to do things like: - Go to church everday, twice on Sunday
- Dress like the amish (no offense my amish brothers!)
- Read the Bible from dawn till dusk
- Listen to only the christian stations
- Sing Hymns all day long
- Put one of those bumper stickers on my car
- Run around saying "Praise the Lord" all the time
- Learn those shakespeare style prayers
- and... well, you get the idea.
That's not how it works. God wants a relationship with you. He's not nearly as concerned about what's on your bumper as He is about what's in your heart. So, forget all those myths and sterotypes about what it means to be a Christian and please forgive any of us that have given you that impressioin and come join the family. God has been waiting for you since before you were born. I'm not telling you not to go to church or anything of the sort. Just that you don't have to be a fanatic in worldly ways. |
