The Misunderstanding of Faith in Jesus Christ (A FREE online book)

Chapter 7

Let’s Please God

Without Faith it’s impossible to please God. Now that we understand what Faith in God really means, let’s do it. Let’s join ourselves to Jesus and never let go. Let’s obey his commandments and produce the perfect fruit that can only come from the True Vine. Let’s love God and everyone else, according to his standards and not our own. Through the power of God, we can do it all and nothing is impossible for us.

Imagine how pleased God would be if we obeyed him. Imagine how happy we would be knowing, without-a-doubt that we were “right with God”. Imagine how the road of life would be if we trusted God to drive. The Father knows what’s best for us. Isn’t it about time we hand the wheel to him?

Imagine Christians who actually resemble the God they associate themselves with. Imagine how much better Christians would look if we learned to love and treat each other with respect.

Imagine healing Cancer and AIDS with just a touch. Imagine people flocking to us, because they know, when we place our hands on them, their arms and legs will grow back and their sight and hearing will return. Imagine freeing the street-roaming, so-called “lunatics” and mentally ill, from demonic oppression. Imagine giving the needy not only food and shelter, but a real relationship with the almighty God through Jesus Christ. We can be the change that we want to see in this world.

Imagine feeling secure and happy (all the time) despite your low bank account or the small amount of friends in your life. Imagine feeling God’s presence and hearing his voice of love and comfort; and knowing that everything will be all right, regardless of how the circumstances may look. We shouldn’t have to imagine any of this because this is the life that God predestined for us. We just need to start believing and taking advantage of it.

Envision your future in Heaven with God and other faithful people, for all eternity, never again experiencing pain, suffering, emptiness or death; but experiencing instead only fulfillment, joy and love forever. We can have all this through continual Faith in Jesus Christ.
