If we all lived according to the teachings of Jesus Christ, life would be much simpler.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It confuses me that Christian living is not simpler. The gospel, the very good news, is simple.
Life is very, very simple and easy to understand, but we complicate it with the beliefs and ideas that we create.
For many, living a Christlike life every day may be even more difficult than laying down one's life.
The life of Christ was a life of humble simplicity, yet how infinitely exalted was his mission. Christ is our example in all things.
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
Life isn't like a book. Life isn't logical or sensible or orderly. Life is a mess most of the time. And theology must be lived in the midst of that mess.
Whatever science and philosophy may do for mankind, the world can never outgrow its need of the simplicity that is in Christ.
It's not the easiest life in the world, but then no life is easy.
We should live our lives as though Christ were coming this afternoon.
I'll say life is simpler.
