“Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart a person believes (adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Christ) and so is justified (declared righteous, acceptable to God), and with the mouth he confesses (declares openly and speaks out freely his faith) and confirms [his] salvation,” Rom. 10:9, 10 (Amplified Bible). The Christian faith is a transformation process in which the Believer has a changing of his heart condition. Faith in God and His Word will change your life. That change of heart opens the way to a personal relationship with God. Christianity is not a religion but a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. A relationship birthed out of communion, fellowship, and intimacy. It’s not much different from a relationship with a close friend except with God. And with God this personal relationship includes praise and worship unto Him out of reverential respect and adoration. For the Believer what else can come from us unto our Creator, spiritual Father, and God of our salvation? The difference between this and religion is that a personal relationship is from the heart, the inner man, the spiritual man. Our relationship with God is not a mechanical formality of rituals, but a genuine heart experience with God that affects the very core of the existence. To love God is to know Him in the pardon of our sins. To be in Christ is to walk free from the bondage of sin, death, hell, and the grave including victory over the twins, sickness and poverty. Most of all it’s to know Him as Father. We’re a part of His family, the family of God, and His spiritual sons and daughters. That blows religion to oblivion and embraces a genuine heart experience with the Lord of lords & King of kings.
In His Service,
