Ignorant faith

Being a christian is not about agreeing with the character of Christ and finding comfort in the icons of christianity.  It is about believing in the person Jesus Christ and turning to him by accepting His Lordship over your life.  

Often we find cultural Christians who's faith is bound by walls and materialism. They bound God within the walls of the church and even worship man made idols like statues and cross necklaces.  

When you place limits and boundaries upon the God you worship, you have a God that is beneath you.  A God beneath you is no God at all, but simply and idol offering empty promises and zero hope.  

The living God calls this type of faith ignorance.  True faith begins with repentance.  Repentance that acknowledges the omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent God.  Jesus Chris is all knowing, always present, and all powerful.  He can not and will not be bound by walls or any other materialistic form.  

His life, death, and resurrection command our complete surrender.  Surrendering our life of sin and seeking His life of salvation.   

Acts 17:29-30  "Therefore since we are God's offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone--an image made by man's design and skill.30 In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.
