Fed Up

I am fed up. I am fed up of not being able to say, 'I'm a Christian' and have people not know what I'm talking about. No, I am not Catholic, Religious, Baptist, Pentecostal, or any thing that is out there. I am a Christian. A follower of Jesus Christ. Someone who loves the Lord. I believe in the whole Bible. The Bible says, 'God created the Heavens and the Earth.' Then God created the Heavens and the Earth. The Bible says it took '7 days', then it took 7 days. The Bible says, there was a flood and an ark. Then there was! It does not say, 7 days is a metaphor and it actually took millions of years it was just in that chronological order and Darwin explained it all. It does not say, the Big Bang. So, that didn't happen.
Do you remember Y2K? There was all kinds of hype and panic over that thing. The grocery shelves were emptied of supplies. Nobody went out and fear gripped society. Where is Y2K in the Bible? IT'S NOT! It was not the end of the world as we know it.
We have no prayers in schools, (unless its not Christian) no Bibles in Hotels (unless it's not Christian) Hospitals are taking out their chapels (unless it's not Christian) Churches have begun preaching self-help stuff, and indoctrinating our children with Paganism hidden in curriculums.

Not all churches mind you, but they are out there! The other day my son was at the Y and during his break (he was taking the babysitting course) He said "Halleluiah!" A boy told him that was a bad word. My son said, "No it's not, why do you think that?" The boy said, "because it's Christian and if you say anything Christian then it's bad. That what I was taught in school."
My son was greatly upset by this and thanked me for homeschooling when he got home. He was glad he has the freedom of speech at home. So, this is my 'freedom to be a Christian' post. What does it mean to be a Christian? It means, believing the Bible-THE WHOLE BIBLE! That we have all sinned and fall short of the Glory of God. That God's Holiness is only obtainable through His Son, The Lord and Saviour-Jesus Christ. That Jesus died and shed his blood to wash our sins and we if we believe in Him and awknowledge Him as Lord, He will cleanse our sin and make us 'white as snow'. He rose again to prove his diety as God and so that His Helper the Holy Spirit could indwell us and help us along life's journey to the Glory of God. Christians aren't anymore perfect then anybody else. But Jesus is and God sees His Spirit in us! Praise God that I live in a free country that allows me to speak about being a Christian, what I believe in and take all the ridicule (by His Grace) that comes with it. In some countries saying you're a Christian means death or worse... In this one, I can stand up and be free to say the 'bad word' Hallehuiah!
