Having Him

Having Him

“We know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him…” 1 JOHN 5:20 There is a difference between salvation and a Savior; between deliverance and a Deliverer; between healing and a Healer; between redemption and a Redeemer. The first is a “thing,” the second is a Person. This may sound self-evident and elementary, but before God the difference is vast, and in actual experience the difference is incalculable. If we are not clear on the matter of His Son we will find the Christian life very difficult, if not impossible, to live. I have the “thing” because I have Him; having Him, I do not need to search for the “thing” anymore. What do you have? An experience? A word? A doctrine? A belief? Or a Man? This is the difference between a living Christianity and a dead religion. Source: “Lord of All" by Chip Brogden http://www.chipbrogden.com/books/lord-of-all Like this?
