Don't Put Me In Box
What is it about Christians that they think they have it all together. I am talking about Christians in general. And they think that what they understand about the gospel is the absolute gospel. Not only that, they will try to change your way of looking at the gospel in accordance to what their views are.
One person can interprete the gospel differently from another person but who is right? Yet both try to make one another think the way they do. Pushing God to the sidelines cause they think they know better.
Can one person really understand everything about God? How sure are we that our views are correct? Is there an absolute answer to God's ways. We cannot place God in a box cause he is a being. He is creative and all knowing. He does things differently all the time. Then why are we trying to make everyone think the same and do things in the same manner?
A friend told me that we learn from our "fathers of faith in the past". Yes we do learn from them. Their faith and what they understand about God. But ways and methods of doing things? How we exercise our faith?
Please do not judge and put me in a box. I am only trying to journey with God and walk the way I know best how to.
