I had cars houses jewels furs and a husband who loved me and a career I was happy with. But I found fulfillment in my relationship with Christ.
If you're a Christian you don't sit there and worry about what somebody else is doing if they're happy and they're committed in a relationship.
I would say 90 percent of Christians do not have a worldview in other words a view of the world based on the Scripture and a relationship with God.
I always believed in God and Christ but I was in rebellion - trying to make my relationship with God fit into my life instead of making my life fit in with him. I was stubborn.
It is easy for Christians to have the false impression that once we have established a relationship with Christ which we believe sets us right with God the problems of life will somehow scoot away or they will slowly be removed from our lives.
But with Christ we have access in a one-to-one relationship for as in the Old Testament it was more one of worship and awe a vertical relationship. The New Testament on the other hand we look across at a Jesus who looks familiar horizontal. The combination is what makes the Cross.
It's okay for Christians throughout centuries to exterminate races and for their priests to rape little kids throughout decades but trying to give the people the power to think and be individual that's evil?
I serve a higher power Jesus Christ. I make no apologies in saying that.
All national institutions of churches whether Jewish Christian or Turkish appear to me no other than human inventions set up to terrify and enslave mankind and monopolize power and profit.
I've received a lot of positive feedback from both the secular and Christian markets. People seem to be receiving it with open arms and hearts and are interested in the stories I want to share about my relationship with God and my faith.
