DO I REALLY WANT A REVIVAL ? 

February 27,2000
What does it mean to be a Christian? Is a Christian someone who is born in a Christian family? Is a Christian someone who was taken to church as an infant and sprinkled with water? Does membership in a Christian church make a person a Christian? The answer to all these questions is NO!

A Christian is someone who has been born again: John 3:3-7

                    BONUS SCRIPTURE:  I Peter 3:18
                                                            John 1:1-13
                                                            Jude, verse 6

CHRISTIANITY IS ALL OR NOTHING! John 6:32-71

Men build religions - 2 Kings 17:6-41

John 13:12-20; Matt.11:25-30

John 13:34-35; John 15:9-27

A revival is to live in God’s love relationship.  But God is a jealous God who will not share us with the world!  James 4:1-5

Man must make a choice - to live a worldly life - or to walk a close walk with God.  It is impossible to have both!  Matthew 6:24

You cannot watch ungodly television programs, movies, attend bars, take drugs, dance to ungodly music, etc. and at the same time try to hold the hands of Jesus. Ephesians 5:1-16

Each Christian must make a choice, Jesus or the world. James 4:6-10

Jesus spoke on this subject to the Church of Ephesus - Revelation 2:1-7

Are you willing to come back to your first love today? Revelation 3:20-22

If you decide to choose the world, this is the word that shall be spoken of you in the day of Judgment: THEY FEARED THE LORD AND SERVED THEIR OWN gods, AFTER THE MANNER OF THE NATIONS WHOM THEY CARRIED AWAY FROM THENCE.
