Is Jesus my home boy? My boyfriend? I mean what about at the very least, My sugar daddy? Our culture tosses around some characteristics of Jesus that sound hip, or cool, or go down smooth to the listen, but are they true? If not, are there dangers in believing things that Jesus isn’t? Today we are discussing five things Jesus is AND isn’t.
Let us build up our faith by knowing the true characteristics of God!
TShirt Theology - 5 Things Jesus Isn't - and IS
- Jesus is my boyfriend : Jesus is the Husband to the Church
- Jesus is my cheerleader : Jesus receives our praise because He is God
- Jesus is my fairy god-mother : Jesus is Sovereign - our Authority
- Jesus is my fire insurance : Jesus is our Grace, which allows us to obey Him
- Jesus is my homeboy: Jesus is our Lord
We need to learn to recognize when our catchy, trendy phrases do not accurately describe or represent our Lord and Savior. Otherwise, our minds can start to believe what is untrue about God, but also we represent false things about our Lord to the world.
Learn to be good stewards of the Gospel by rightly understanding trending phrases or ideologies about God.
