Are you ready for deep Christianity?

Christians believe that God's Spirit empowers them to live in a kind and peace- loving way. Most Christians throughout history have believed that Jesus is both fully God and fully human. Christians use the term Trinity, meaning that there is one God who exists in three persons: The Father, Son and Holy Spirit. But is this true?

Matthew 24:42-51 NCV.

42 "So always be ready, because you don't know the day your Lord will come. 43 Remember this: If the owner of the house knew what time of night a thief was coming, the owner would watch and not let the thief break in. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at a time you don't expect him.

What does it mean to be ready for Christ's return? Above all it means to come to faith in Him. To believe in Jesus as one's Savior and Lord. To receive His forgiveness and gift of eternal life. No one is ready for Jesus' return who has not received Christ as Savior. We are not ready to meet God until some changes have taken place, until some preparation has been made. Before Jesus went away, he said, “I go to prepare a place for you.” Heaven is a prepared place, but it is for prepared people only. Heaven has already been prepared for us, but we must prepare for heaven.

As a Christian, someone who has put faith and trust in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ through His death on the cross and subsequent resurrection, our behavior mirrors, reflects and resembles Christ. Being gracious and merciful to others is behaving like Christ. Is this you?

The word Christian does not mean, as you might think, a "person who is automatically morally good-and-honest." The word Christian has so much more meaning behind it.

This word means that you have admitted that you are a sinner, you know and believe that Jesus Christ is Savior and Lord, and you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and get baptized and that he has saved you from eternity in the burning depths of fire in hell. The word Christian is about a relationship. Do you have this with the Lord or something else?

You are correct in saying that there are "both moral and immoral Christians," but I am also correct in saying that there are also moral and immoral non-Christians. Being a moral person and being a Christian are two completely different things.

I hope this post has been insightful so far, and opened your heart and eyes to a new way of thinking . Why is Christianity true? Considering the language frequently used to describe what it means to be Christian, we might conclude that it is true because I believe it is true. I asked Jesus into my heart. I accepted Jesus as my personal savior. I made Jesus Lord of my life. I believe in Jesus with all my heart. But Christianity is not true because I believe it to be so. It is not just something that is true in my head or in my heart.

It is not made true for me because of my belief in it.

It is actual, deepest reality—whether we believe it or not. It is the cosmic narrative that is really unfolding, that we are really incorporated into, that really makes sense of everything else. The New Testament’s use of mysterion, koinonia, and kairos helps us grasp this richer picture of the reality, mystery, and enchantment that is Christianity. This more robust understanding also has fruitful potential in connecting to those inside and outside the church in our day.

There's false things taught in Christianity , and we should search them out. The New Testament uses the word mysterion twenty-seven times, and it usually is in reference to the Gospel, the incarnation, or the sacramental mysteries of how God comes to man. The Greek root for mystery comes from “to shut the mouth” or “to cover one’s mouth.” As in awe—not mystery in the sense of unsolved crime or detective story, gnostic revelation or Eastern mysticism, but rather something that is so profound, so real, so deep, that all we can do is cover our mouths and be brought low before the mystery of God made man.

The New Testament contains no explicit trinitarian doctrine. However, many Christian theologians, apologists, and philosophers hold that the doctrine can be inferred from what the New Testament does teach about God. Surely a teaching as widespread and popular as the Trinity is scriptural, isn't it? Yet time and again, theologians and researchers admit it isn't found in the Bible.

Notice, then, the exquisite picture Jesus paints to express the beauty and intimacy of this union: it involves nothing less than the Father and the Son making their home in the heart of the believer

Many people assume that God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit form what is commonly known as the Trinity. The doctrine of the Trinity is usually summed up as a belief in one God existing in three distinct but equal persons.

We can go on and on ,but what is the point.

Many great pioneers of science examined the evidence and concluded that it proved the existence of God and that the Bible was His inspired Word. For many, their belief in an orderly universe established by the power and genius of an almighty Creator lay behind their scientific investigations.

Many critics of the Bible vilify those who believe in the Bible as bigots and ignorant science deniers. But they themselves are ignorant of the fact that the foundations of modern science were laid largely by men who believed in God and the Bible.

So the idea of seriously trying to give up sin, and live for God, isn't just for God's benefit, or for our future benefit in the next life. It works now to make us have deep faith means to have a deep conviction or belief that there are realities beyond what we can see – beyond our circumstances, our abilities and weaknesses, tragedies, regrets, guilt, shame from our past and our fears about tomorrow.

Significantly, Jesus does not require believers to do a dozen things—but only to believe and to love. For it is the realization ("in that day you will know") of the reality and magnitude of this union with God through union with Christ that transforms the thinking, feeling, willing, loving, and, consequently, the actions of the believer. In this union, the Father prunes the branches of the vine to bear more fruit (15:2). In this same union, the Son keeps all those the Father has given Him (17:12).

"The desperate need today is not for a greater number of intelligent people, or gifted people, but for deep people."
