Would Jesus Recognize Our Christianity?

The most critical issue facing Christians is not abortion, pornography, the disintegration of the family, moral absolutes, MTV, drugs, racism, sexuality, or school prayer. The critical issue today is dullness. We've lost our astonishment.

The Good News is no longer good news, it's okay news. Christianity is no longer life changing, it's life enhancing. Jesus doesn't change people into wild-eyed radicals anymore, He changes them into "nice people."

What would Christianity look like if we presented it accurately? I'd say we'd see more people willing to give up EVERYTHING for the treasure that salvation is. It reminds me of the parable of the hidden treasure, Matthew 13:44. James
