“For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.”
1Cor 4:20
As long as our acclaimed Faith does not produce visible results, the world can only see religion in us. A Jesus who doesn’t answer prayer today is as helpless as Mahommed or any other dead relious leader. The name of Jesus should work miracles for us lest the world suppose we preach lies. We must be able to carry evidence of the things we claim. If indeed God raises the dead then it should be the norm in our meetings, and this is exactly what the early church did, the bible says “God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?” Heb 2:4 The early church didn’t just say that the name of Jesus works, they proved it.
Peter and John healed the lame man at the gate called beautiful then taught about the power of that name later. As long as we don’t prove bible facts, the unbelieving will only suppose we have a good doctrine. That’s why Apostle Peter said “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.” 2 Peter 1:16 I have met people who say Jesus never rose from the dead, they hold our gospel as Jewish fable but now, How can a fable open blind eyes and make cancer to disappear? Yes, a fable may fill a building with people and cause them to get excited but no fable can make the lame to walk. When John sent his disciples to confirm if indeed Jesus was the Messiah, The Bible says in Luke 7:21-22 “And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight. Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.” Jesus backed his message with demonstration. He not only spoke as a philosopher and he is our example.
We should practise Real, Authentic and Fruitful Christianity otherwise we will discourage sinners from accepting the gospel. A certain fellow recently said that he has been “attending church” since he was a kid and has been convinced Christianity doesn’t work, well the truth is ; that fellow grew up in religion not in real christianity. In Real Christianity, God answers prayer whereas in religion you pray and fast a lot or even seed but no results ever show up. God doesn’t want us to become religious Christians, If you practise what you learnt about prayer and it doesnt work, then maybe the one who taught you was wrong or you haven’t followed the word perfectly because the word works always. If it doesn’t work just know it was not authentic christianity. I suppose we should only do what works, and the word works ALWAYS. Theories, assumptions and religious concepts don’t always work, but the word does work. If you have prayed for years and you are just stagnant, i am sorry to say you are just being religious or you are mixing Christianity and Religion for example, winning souls is real christianity but being broke isn’t, so if you are always broke but winning souls you are mixing real christianity and religion. You are to be a balanced Christian, your ministry, relationships, finances, job, academics and all that has to do with you ought to be well and inspiring. That’s Authentic Christianity.
