Which Jesus? – WHICH JESUS?? – Brendon Powell

By Brendon Powell. Taken from the Revival List.

There seems to be more than one Jesus to choose from these days.
Which one is the true Jesus and who am I following?

FALSE JESUS:

· There’s a ‘seeker friendly’ Jesus, he’s the one who will not
offend anyone in anyway. He loves everyone no matter what they do.

· There’s a ‘sow and reap’ Jesus, he made a covenant with man
so that man could sow his seed and reap wealth and happiness on
earth and then go to heaven when he dies.

· There’s a ‘blend in with the world’ Jesus, he wants us to look
like, act like, and be like the world in order to reach the lost.

· There’s a ‘neverending grace’ Jesus, his ‘grace’ covers us no
matter what we do or how we live.

· There’s a ‘just believe’ Jesus. As long as you truly believe
in your heart, you’re saved.

· There’s a ‘name it claim it’ Jesus. You name it; anything and
it’s yours! If you don’t get it, it’s because you lack faith. It’s your fault.

· There’s a ‘carnal’ Jesus. He doesn’t expect you to overcome
sin, he understands you’re just carnal.

· There’s a ‘heart dwelling’ Jesus. All you have to do is ask
him into your heart and voilà, he’s there. You’re going to heaven!
