Re: Born again-ism (Paul Washer)
Take up your cross to follow Jesus is NOT a message most Christians know about... they believe it is more like what I like to call the "Santa Claus" gospel... do good, and get your wish list fulfilled, be blessed and not stressed... etc.
I am glad to see more and more people realizing that when you become a disciple of Christ, you have laid your life down, and picked HIS up, it is a call to die first and foremost... not a call to live life unto yourself, but to live unto Him.
And with that consecration and dedication... that is the only REAL way to live this life... it is the best life you can have on this earth... anything else is deceptive, and miserable. Money can't buy happiness... only JESUS can give us anything that has eternal value.
