Last night my revelation was reinforced. "It's good that you have more sinners than saved as friends." That was all I heard, and I did understand, but last nights youth group elaborated on it.
It's not what you don't do as a Christian, it's what you do do. It's not about not drinking, smoking, swearing or lying. It's about being part of the world and doing what you can for other people. "For God so loved the world..." He loves the entire world. The gays, the rapists, the unsaved, the saved, all the same. It would pain God to be separated from the world he loves via sin.
Christians more or less means Christ-like. To set examples, to help the ones who need to be helped.
That's what I learned last night.
As for my revelation, I love all my friends the same, I wouldn't dare trade them for anything, and I even told God, I'll die for my friends if even one wasn't saved by the end of my life. The amazing thing about God is...that he wouldn't let that happen.
This was a major concern for me circa three weeks ago, but realizing that God actually understands that, and that I was saved for the sole purpose of helping the ones I love...seemed sort of oblivious to me until now.
