It confuses me that Christian living is not simpler. The gospel, the very good news, is simple.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If we all lived according to the teachings of Jesus Christ, life would be much simpler.
The basic principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ are simple, and they are universal. Faith in the Savior is the same in Boston as it is in Accra.
There is dissatisfaction among a great many Christian people. They are not happy with what they have and, therefore, respond readily to the message of the restored gospel.
The life of Christ was a life of humble simplicity, yet how infinitely exalted was his mission. Christ is our example in all things.
The gospel is a message of peace. Christianity is a system which, received and obeyed, would spread peace, harmony, and happiness throughout the earth.
There is too much theology in the Church now, and too little of the Gospel.
God has hardwired me to thoroughly enjoy and be sharpened by good and friendly theological discussion about the gospel.
Why the Christian life is so difficult to many is because they have a divided heart. They are double-minded, which makes them unstable in all their ways.
I know it sounds crazy, but as soon as Christians start telling non-Christians how to live their lives, we've lost the Christian faith.
It's impossible to be a good Christian. If you think it's easy to be a good Christian, then you're not really trying hard enough.
