Over the years in ministry, I have learned some thing strange! I
learned that salvation is a process and many Christians are at different
levels or stages in the salvation process. some times we wish to move
at a certain pace but we forget that we are growing at varying levels.
There are Christians who are steadfast while there are those who are
sluggish. May God help us to imitate Christ in our walk. Jesus asked,
"when the Son of man comes back, will He find faith on earth?" will He
find you at the level you ought to be? some of us have spent decades in
Christianity but are still learning the elementary things of the gospel.
It is time Christians woke up to diligence in the things of God so that
the body can grow. Imagine if the hair of a baby became grey while it
is still breast feeding! Imagine if you find a baby girl with mature
breasts! imagine if you met a big man of 18yrs breast feeding! it would
be a strange sight! but in Christianity, we have all sorts of uneven
growth! you find a new convert trying to become a pastor desperately to
make quick money, you will find a Christian who last testified or fasted
10years ago. You will find a christian who has spent decades in
Christianity but he/she can not even say a prayer to God!
There are
strange men who benefit so much from mature babies. there are Christians
who prey on dwarf christians because the dwarfs are stunted,
spiritually. They are robbed by paying for prayer. A Christian of 1yr in
Christ should be able to cast out demons and heal the sick! in fact the
bible says all believers should cast out demons but after 30yrs as a
believer, you can not cast out even a cold or flue from yourself or
others!
We should arise and put on the whole Armour and stand firm,
carry the cross and follow Christ. The day is drawing closer and we
should prepare early lest the Groom find you in dead slumber
