Like a football match
Jesus said,
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
John10:10.
Someone has said to me Christianity is a bunch of do’s and don’t’s. It’s very restrictive.
I know to listen to some preachers Christianity may seem like a lot of rules and regulations. I know to listen to some preachers and Christians God seems to be an old man with a big stick ready to bash you if you do wrong. It’s not true.
As you grow as a Christian you realize that it is quite and easy lifestyle to live.
I liken it to a Football match. The players must play to a standard set of rules. The rules of the game make for a good fun and exciting game.
Thus it is with Christianity. We have some basic truths we live by but living within them makes life interesting at times. At the same time it gives us a peace that follows us through all of life’s ups and downs.
Jesus’ call to the world is,
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30.
This, I as a Christian have found is true and I encourage others who are not Christian to start to read the New Testament and find out for yourself how the teaching of Jesus and the apostles make for a well rounded loving lifestyle. A life style that give you peace in all situations.
Please think about it.
