There are many religions out there today who make no bones about it that they are not Christian. Then there are those religions who do claim to be Christian that are not. There are even dominations within what we would call Christian that are not. The question become how do you tell them apart? How do you tell right from wrong? Good from bad? What’s the difference? The first step is to acknowledge that fact that there is a difference and then go looking for it. Like in the picture above if you just look at it quickly there you don’t even notice that there are nine differences in the two pictures. When it comes to following a religion, a denomination, a church or a way of thinking the main difference you have to consider how they view Jesus. The proper view of Jesus is what separates Christianity from everything else. Jesus is more than a man He is God. Jesus is more than a good teacher He is the second member of the trinity. Jesus is more than a prophet He created the world. Jesus is more than miracle worker, He is Lord. I thought for a long time today about Jesus and the best I could come up with is Jesus is Jesus. He is who He says he is. So to be able to spot the differences the answers can be found only through reading the Bible and through prayer. If you want to see the differences in today’s pictures scroll down to the bottom of the page.
Ephesians 1:19-23
19 I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power 20 that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. 21 Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. 22 God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. 23 And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.
