During my travels, I met a man that had heard a statement I had made duing a message and he asked me a question; "What is your definition of a Successful Christian?" It caught me a bit off guard but instead of rattling off a quick answer I paused for a time and wondered; "What do I mean by that statement?" Yielding to the Holy Spirit's guidence, I heard the answer flow out of my heart and to my lips. So, I thought I'd share it with y'all. It is one who has sought God earnestly and asked and allowed God, through the Holy Spirit, to open his eyes and his ears. One who has been enlightened to the Spiritual Realm divided from the Natural Realm and and developed a heart of understanding, the ability to see the TRUTH in all things and people. One who has accepted the "Promise of the Father" as Jesus spoke of when we allow the Holy Spirit to guide our lives. Jesus stated 7 times in the Bible; "let he that has ears let him hear" is the ability to hear God's voice giving answers to prayer, where to find your blessings, and instructing you in the ways of His will for all mankind. With the heart of understanding comes the ability to know the differences of the world view and Biblical view and know his will and the needs of others and have the peace of God in all things and know you are NEVER alone and you become a blessing to all you meet; you only need to seek an intimate relationship with Jesus, Amen?

To know the difference of: Religion(ALL of them), is mans attempt to get close to God!

That Christ Jesus is and always has been, God's attemp to get closer to man!!!
