The Big Question(s)

The Big Question

I often like to pose questions to people.  It’s my way of understanding where people come from and relating to them.  So when I hear different opinions about Jesus, or Christianity as a whole, my ears immediately perk up and I begin to question.  It’s a pursuit of understanding the people around me, in a sense.  Now I pose what I think is a list of highly controversial questions in a time and place where everyone’s right and truth is apparently not truth anymore.  OK, here it goes…

1.       Why don’t you love/trust/follow/believe in Jesus?

Ooh, didn’t see that coming did you?  Who would’ve thought I’d bring this up?  It’s a start.  I wanna understand people better, and their answers to this question will really help me.  Plus, I feel like anyone who doesn’t love/trust/follow/believe in Jesus is really missing it.  There are several other questions that go along with this one, such as:

2.       Why don’t you go to church?

3.       Why don’t you like Christians?

4.       Why don’t you read the Bible?

5.       Why do you ignore what the Bible says?

These are just a few questions that will all hopefully point to the greater good by clearing out some of the junk that gets in our way.  We’ll be able to look past worldly things and realize that God loves us, and that He demonstrated His love by sending His Son to die for our sins.  This is definitely a call to anyone out there reading this.  Please send me your answers to these types of questions whenever you can.  I’d love to talk with you about them if you are willing to share.  I’ll even share my previous answers to these questions, and then how my answers have changed since the Lord saved me.

Your Brother in Christ,

Phillip
