I Got Somethin'

A quote from a book I'm reading by Major W. Ian Thomas:

"To be entirely honest, I know of nothing quite so boring as Christianity without Christ.

Countless people have stopped going to a place of worship simply because they are sick of going through the motions of a dead religion. They are tired of trying to start a car on an empty tank. What a pity that there are not more people around to show them that Jesus Christ is alive.

I know of nothing so utterly exciting as being a Christian, sharing the very Life of Jesus Christ on earth right here and now, being caught up with Him into the relentless, invincible purposes of the almighty God, and having available to us all the limitless resources of Diety for accomplishing those purposes."

A couple of questions for you to kick around:

Do you agree or disagree with Major Thomas' premise that there are few people showing the reality of Christ being alive?

and/or

Do you think most Christians would classify their life with Christ as "utterly exciting" or "caught up in the relentless, invincible purposes" of God?

Just seeing what you think...
