Christ Rebel
My Audience
This Blog is very much directed to those of us that have accepted Jesus Christ as God and have any number of questions about Him, the bible, Christianity and how these things affect (or should) our lives. This isn't really a blog for people who are already firm in their beliefs as the questions may seem very fundamental. I'm also of the belief that we are all born with an built in sense to rebel against forced conformity. Jesus Christ ask us to rebel against conformity (Romans 12:2). He wants us to be apart from the crowd. And he knows that we are going to suffer (Romans 5:3) but that it will be worth it.
Paul wrote:
For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
2 Corinthians 1:5-7 NIV
