A True Christian

Bookwang speaks at 14. 09. 2025 We welcome you to our service from Heart Prague! A True Christian The word Christian comes from the Greek Christianos, meaning follower of Christ. Being a Christian is not about attending church or knowing much about Christianity; it is about truly following Jesus. Many today remain spectators of the Bible instead of living it. James 2:17 and 19 warn us that faith without action is dead. Hebrews 12:5–7 reminds us that God disciplines those He loves. The church in Sardis (Revelation 3:1–3) had a reputation of being alive but was dead, and Jesus called them to repent. We must ask ourselves if we are truly known by God, or if we only carry the name “Christian.” God’s Word is still alive today. We must receive it personally, not just admire it from afar. Following Christ requires commitment: it is the narrow road (Matthew 7:14), demanding self-denial and daily battle with sin (Matthew 16:24). To follow Him is to face hardship and persecution (2 Timothy 3:12). Yet Hebrews 12:2–3 points us to Jesus, who endured the cross and shame for our eternal life. His immeasurable love makes it our honor and joy to follow Him, no matter the cost. Christ defeated death, rose again after three days, and still speaks to us today. There is no greater joy than an intimate relationship with God who loves us unconditionally. To follow Christ is to become His child. To His children, He promises: “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Deuteronomy 31:8). He declares, “You are mine,” and assures that through waters and fire He will protect us (Isaiah 43:1–3). This is the God we follow: a Good Shepherd, a faithful Father, rich in love, grace, and mercy. Being a Christian means walking with Jesus daily, resisting sin even to the point of struggle (Hebrews 12:4), carrying the cross, and sharing His love with others (John 15:12). Now is the time to take faith seriously—to step out of the stands and become true followers of Christ. Zobrazit v YouVersion Welcome to Heart Prague Church!
