Early Believers |
Christianity |
1 |
Willing to sell everything they had for the gospel |
Buy a nice house in the suburbs, SUV and go to social club called Church |
| 2 |
Beaten, whipped, murdered, deprived, imprisoned for the advance of gospel |
Stays in cozy church building holding events hoping people come |
| 3 |
Taught sound doctrine, studied to show self approved unto God |
Watered down messages that have nothing to do with scripture |
| 4 |
Believers diligent to learn all scriptures |
So-called believers that know few verses that tickle their fancy |
| 5 |
Willing to pick up cross |
Not willing to do anything |
| 6 |
Light to the world, lived a set-apart life, acted as living example |
Wants to blend in and do everything that pagans do |
| 7 |
About others |
About me, me, me... |
| 8 |
Genuine love for others |
Put on a phoney show |
| 9 |
Messiah making peace between man and God |
Being bribed: believe in Jesus and get to go to heaven |
| 10 |
Being transformed into new creation |
No change, just give me the free ticket to heaven |
