Matthew 7:21 … To be a GOOD Christian<br />
(08/08/20<strong>16</strong>)<br />
Newsflash: Despite what Paul the prophet-of-old and many modern day<br />
Christian preachers say <strong>to</strong> the contrary, it doesn't matter if you have been baptized<br />
as a Christian -- and it doesn't matter if you devoutly say your prayers every night<br />
-- and it doesn't matter if you go <strong>to</strong> church every Sunday -- and it sure as Hell (pun<br />
duly intended) doesn't matter if you tithe 10% of your money <strong>to</strong> the tabernacle of<br />
your choice … No, my dear Friends -- if you consider yourself <strong>to</strong> be a Christian<br />
only one thing truly matters (and this, straight from the mouth of Jesus Christ<br />
himself); namely, what you DO for others – the Kindness you show them<br />
(especially in those moments when you least wish <strong>to</strong> show it) & the Mercy you give<br />
them (especially in those moments when you least wish <strong>to</strong> give it -- and especially for<br />
those "least deserving" of the same).<br />
“Not everyone who says <strong>to</strong> me, „Lord, Lord,‟ will enter the Kingdom of<br />
Heaven, but rather only the ones who enliven the will of my Father will do so.”<br />
~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:21)<br />
Amen ... Let it be so.<br />
NOTE: This particular offer of "salvation" is valid for all beings, Christians<br />
& non-Christians alike.<br />
