CONFESSING CHRIST
Matthew 10:32-33
“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.
Personal Challenge
This can be a fairly stark passage focus to read. It is one thing to proclaim that we are a Christian and happily go to church on a somewhat regular basis. However, what are we doing in our lives that confess Jesus Christ as our Lord? Are we being kind to those whom we come in contact with? Does that kindness extend to those who have differing political, social, or lifestyle opinions than us? Are we helping those around us who are in need? Are we demonstrating in our actions the love of Christ? If our lives are not screaming that Jesus Christ is our Lord without ever saying a word, then the second half of this passage should be troubling for us. Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy!
