One question that I keep on asking myself is that "Why did jesus Christ come to this earth?", why did he ever come.

jesus Christ didn't come to this earth to start up a religious, his coming wasn't just to come die for us, most Christian thinks jesus Christ actually came to die for our sins but NO because that was just a means to an end. Coming to this earth to die and save us from our sins was not enough because definitely we would have just sin again and again, indeed if he came to forgive us for our transgression and iniquities, trust me that wouldn't have helped because we humans can't do without sin, so after he has forgiven us, we would still go on sinning again.

Jesus Christ actually came for something mightier than saving us from our transgression and iniquities, something higher than giving us blessings or all what we needed, something even higher than healing our sick bodies. Jesus Christ came to give us life, there's a higher life in Christ.

John 12:46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
12:47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

One question that all Christian need to ask their self is that "have I really received the holy spirit" , even churches this days doesn't even understand the level in which Christ has kept us, many has still pending to know what Christianity is really all about and as a result, they find their self living a lamentable life, thinking that is not their turn to access Christ's blessings. We think that Christ got favoritism in blessing people, we look at Christ just the way we think about ourselves but Christ is never like us, his ways doesn't mimic our ways rather we are the ones wanting to be like him, Christ doesn't operate in same frequency with man, Christ is God.

When you read the bible, you will be astonished to know what Christ has made out of you. If you are a true Christian, trust me it will be impossible for you to be sick, I know you will be thinking that's not true because the human system will always fall for any sort of illness, understanding the word of God will bring you to that level of understanding this things.

Winning is your gain as true Christian and success is your birthright but until you are aground with this things, you see yourself living a waving and fluctuating life and to you, it seems to be okay and normal because you feel that's the story for everyone else out there but that's just the wrong story. A lot of Christian has this wrong mentality in life because we were never being lecture about the gospel of Christ, finding ourselves in churches that never understood why Christ really came, what most of churches do is just preaching rather than teaching, although that's inspiring but the thing is that, such won't help you when you face the world, you have to understand what life really his and you need Christ word to understand this things

Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

As a Christian, after being born again, having gotten the holy spirit and receiving that life in Christ, what does that really mean to you, ask yourself that question. This are the things you need to know as a Christian rather than the word Christianity, it is very paramount for we Christian to understand this fabulous blessings that we have received That Life In Christ.

My answer to this question

As a Christian, after being born again, having gotten the holy spirit and receiving that life in Christ, what does that really mean to you

This means that Christ has given us the go ahead to preach the gospel to all and sundry the power to save souls just has we have been save, siting an example, when the holy spirit came down on the disciples in the upper room it was a cloven tongues of fire, after which they had the confident and divine courage to preach Christ to all the world. which means when we have gotten the holy spirit and have received life in Christ we must endeavor to make others get life in Christ.

yeah that's true...thanks mate

This life he made available for us even when we don't merit it.

unmerited favour indeed

He came to save us from sin, he came as a door for us to enter and enjoy our father's Kingdom. He came so we can live life to the fullest as we serve God... He came as the greatest sign of life from our father. Thank you for this post
