“For God so loved the world, that he gave his
only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in
order that the world might be saved through him."
It seems like every time that we turn on the television or open a magazine we are bombarded by the characters that are called "Reality TV." Often these so called reality television shows are the farthest from reality and instead are societies menu on how to behave badly.
This morning I want to address the true reality that modern
society and so called reality television shows fail to address. This Wednesday
is not only Ash Wednesday, but it is the beginning of the forty days of lent.
The forty days of lent are the true reality that the world needs
to focus on. The reality is that God loves us so much that he sent his Son to
love us, teach us, heal us, be arrested by us, be beaten by us, be crucified by
us and finally be resurrected by God.
Beloved, the true reality that the world truly needs is less of
the supposed real world and more of the real Jesus Christ, who came to save our
lives and to make them eternal. The true reality that Kim
and Khloe Kardashian and all the other so called reality stars must
understand is
Jesus Christ
Is
The true reality and the salvation of the
Life that
We
Lead!
My prayer for you this week is those that call themselves
Christ followers will reach out to the world this Lenten season, and profess the
true reality that the world needs to hear and to live.
"For
God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him
should not perish but have eternal life. For god did not send his Son into the
world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through
him.
My friends go out this day living and loving the true reality of
the world by loving others and by sharing the love and witness of Christ Jesus.
By doing this, we have truly made reality by creating "Survivors!"
that will live eternally instead of surviving on an island.
Pastor Tim.
