feeling sober, thinking out loud
How many times has the enemy come to us and tried to convince us that Jesus isn’t enough? How many times have you heard these words; “Sure you’re saved but… ,”Yes Jesus loves you but…” knowing you were about to be instructed in the ways of ‘higher-christianity’.
Jesus is enough.
“Yes but…”
Jesus is enough.
“But don’t you want to be in His end-times army?”
Jesus is enough.
“But you have to .....”
Jesus is enough.
“Don’t miss your destiny!”
Jesus is enough.
The enemy wants you to believe the finished work of the cross…isn’t really finished, that what started with Jesus…ends with you doing the right things and making yourself right for Him.
If we receive another gospel, fear of falling short, not measuring up, not being ready etc… takes center stage in our hearts and minds. What Jesus has done takes a back-seat to what we must now do to maintain our place at the Fathers table.
The invitations have already gone out. What we need to understand I think, is there really isn’t any fine print at the bottom that reads; ‘BYOR’ (bring your own righteousness)
Jesus is enough.

what does Jesus is enough mean? Do you mean he will do all those other things he asks us to do?
ReplyDeleteplease explain lady.
what I mean is... :)
ReplyDeleteJesus may show us all kinds of amazing things. He might give us revelation that's hard to explain out loud. He opens our eyes and minds, and hearts, to see things that are unseen etc.. but it is always, always to reveal Himself, who He is for the purpose of knowing Him. The more we know Him, the more we love Him. It begins with Him and ends with Him. There is nothing we can do to make Him love us more than He does right now. It grieves me to see brothers and sisters striving to gain what He has given us... freely, without charge. We forget this.
Knowing God, and knowing the 'things of God', are two different things. There is a more excellent way...
Jesus is enough.
Your very right!! I guess the simplist way to look at things is, it's a real relationship. He moves we respond. He tells us how He wants to be loved and we repond. nothing complicated about thattttttt sista
ReplyDeleteI think my brain is fried today. Going to go do a study on the law and grace, I guess it all ties in to the same questionnnnnnn!! mummamia
