Gospel is not catechism, is love.

Maybe not yet know as he ought to evangelize. Maybe, if you want to learn to live as we ought. Frankly, we may not know anything about living the true gospel. Much of what we learned was not with Jesus but with past generations who had no experience with him

Religion has been a stumbling block for Christians around the world. Many go to church and want to know what they are doing. Many do not know what it means to a relationship with God and this has catechized more people for Jesus. Yes! Because when we do not live the true gospel, not when we deny ourselves and not have a relationship with God, we are not winning souls to Jesus and yes, evangelizing them and thus trapping them. Because this is exactly what religions have done throughout history (and culturally we have repeated). These people deeply marked, killed innocent people persecuted in order to unify a culture or assert their own interests. The concept of religion, to me, is much more than a registered church with several members who visit often without knowing what they do. Religion is when we do things out of habit or because we have been taught well and is part of our culture. Jesus is what we need in our culture! Love, peace, transformation and above all salvation must be our way of life, must become a lifestyle and realize the most important Atit we do every day. That's what we bring to the people of this world. However, religion has prevented further advance and many believers had conquered the world for Christ because of its conventions, especially when he says that "we are not part of this world." Because of this, we have lost rich opportunities to show the world that an honest life under the direction of Jesus is true! Jesus is not a way for people to feel good and find peace within yourself, only. This is also very important, but Jesus came not to make people feel good, but to bring salvation to them. Salvation is far beyond the threat that you "go to hell if we do not accept him as savior." Salvation is for anyone who wants a friend, Lord and Father is to those who humbly acknowledge that, despite their talents and their stories of perfect or imperfect, they need Jesus. It is part of the divine plan that will hate us because of the truths about the nations prophesied. But to be hated because we have a relationship with God and we know not evangelize, it is our fault. If we do not know how to bring people to Jesus, we must learn from Him and His word. Jesus is real and if we preach it, so we live it too. The truth will always be true everywhere we go and if he is the truth, He will be witnessed by us in accordance with the truth that we live. People do not believe anything that is confusing and uncertain. If we want to Jesus, we must have our lives on the altar that he may be glorified in us and through us.

We are revolutionaries and we are at this moment in history and God chose us for this, let us do our part. Gospel is not catechism, is love.











With all my love, Chris.

Roller Coaster

Similarly, our life with God is like a roller coaster ride. However, for us it is often easier to ride a carousel because we feel more stability and we have everything in our control in a peaceful walk but not so much fun!


We are children of a powerful and creative God who does new things all the time. This sometimes makes us think that He is God a "super busy" all the time, but in fact he also teaches us with boredom. At one point, the roller coaster seems a bit dull and "adrenaline" but suddenly something happens that we do not expect. Sometimes we can scare us or just have fun. This "instability" brings us right now is fear and that God teaches us to trust more in His sovereignty. Thus, our constraints do not allow us to see that because we are created in the image and likeness of the Father, we test all the time so that we have shaped our character. Perhaps our greatest difficulty is to deliver everything we have and what are the Lord. This requires self-denial and self-denial always hurts. I do not know what part of the roller coaster is your life. Maybe she's on the dull that no adrenaline or "nothing new" happens. Or maybe it is down the highest peak and you do not know if it will hold because so many mixed emotions. But despite all this confusion, I can testify that the loving God I know is on your side rooting for you to grow with difficulties, with the scares, with the monotony, and a mixture of emotions. Let Him be your seat belt.

With all my love, Chris.

Touching Heaven, Change the World

Change requires effort. And courage. We are in a society that requires change, but is accommodated. Requires peace, comfort, happiness, security, but does nothing to make it reality for all people who are part of your world. Often we want to change the world but do nothing to change our personal world. So the concept of change becomes a utopian end, far from reality and intangible.

There was one, however, that was a true revolutionary who changed the world of people, encouraging them and showing them the truth. Jesus was the greatest change agent of all time. Its influence on people had nothing to do with intellectuals, political or economic influence. But I was completely linked to private and very intimate relationship with His Father, He touched the sky with their worship and the service it provided to its people. In Jesus performed many miracles such as multiplying the loaves and fishes, He physically before feeding the hungry, fed them first epiritualmente. That it is clearly a man who cared about the depth and not with s superficiality. That took care of people in all areas of their lives.

We as children of God and joint heirs with Christ, we need to touch the sky to change the world. The changes will not happen just by the strength of our arms. But just as Jesus said, the works that will hold florificarão the Father in heaven. The works themselves do not supply all needs. But when together to love and justice take the gospel to people, they will forever miss them and no supplies. In Jesus name, I encourage you to make a decision to be a change agent, to be influential in their world. Decide to be a reference, not for you to be glorified, but that Our God is seen through you. You may not have a clue how to do this. But I know He wants you to touch the sky and change the world through the love of Jesus. Not through our love, because it is flawed, limited and finite. But when we see through Jesus, He uses us to be his witnesses here and change this world. Whatever your world, you can change it.

Love Poem

Oh, dear Jesus

As my heart I want to
I feel that even the most beautiful words can express my joy when I think of Your greatness
Nothing compares to you
Neither the swallows in the sky or the fish of the sea
Not even the highest hills, nor the deepest valleys
Absolutely nothing to express the greatness of Thy sovereignty.


No poetry or song
No sound or melody
Nothing compares to your beauty
Hill in love with you and my heart wants to meet him more
My voice shakes when I think of your name!


Jesus: Name the most exciting there!
You are the heroes of heroes
The poet of all poets
who sang and told life
through a sacrificial love for his people


You've changed the course of history
Gave me the opportunity to be a hero humble and fair
as Thou Art
You stole the scene of the drama of life
When you give up your life and your heart to all mankind


Not the prettiest of romance shakespeare is so worthy of applause as Your story, my Lord.
As a Romeo gave his life for his Juliet, You gave Your life to all mankind.
You thought of us all and this one lesson of love for all who claim to know what love is.


You really taught how to love poets


And thou wast the precursor of true love.
What all the poets fall down before Him
For You do not know what love is!
That all creation was humble in His presence
Not the most beautiful spectacle of nature can blur the
beauty of the creator of the universe.


Why not fall in love with you, my dear Lord?
Why not just say that you are the most beautiful song I can sing?
What Are the purest air that I breathe?
What You're the purest feeling I can feel?

Before your greatness, is too small what I feel for Thee.
But I thank you for accepting love someone so flawed and double minded wretch like me.


Chris.
