Christianity has always aggravated me because it seemed that the Gospel insinuated that a loving God will smite us to hell if we don’t accept Jesus: but the Bible says, “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already.” (John 3:17-18)
We are already condemned without Jesus! The “accuser” is holding us hostage; telling us that we are nothing, that we don’t matter, that the world is not safe, etc. Condemnation itself is the captor!
A lot of people cannot accept Jesus as Savior because they do not really understand that they are in bondage. It reminds me of the movie, The Matrix. We are all being held captive in a situation that is so deceptive that we are not consciously aware of it. At certain times, we get the creepy feeling that something is not quite right, but we just can’t figure it out. In the movie, the ones who have broken free offer the “red pill” to the ones who want to know the real truth. The red pill is like accepting Jesus. Hey everybody, take the red pill so we can get out of the matrix!
