It's an acceptance followed by obedience and not necessarily perfection. It's progression. Amen. And so, man, it's really wild to think about that.

Out of all the people in the US, America claims it's 68%, but realistically, when you boil down to Bible studying, church attendance, active participation of being a disciple, that percentage quickly boils down to roughly about 9%, which sounds a lot more accurate if you truly are an on-fire devoted Christian who lives on a day-to-day basis.

And speaking from someone who has even had people in their lives or friends and they say, oh, well, I'm Christian. It's like I speak Bible and I speak thing and it just goes one ear and out the other because they actually don't know Jesus. They know his name, but they don't know who he actually is.

It's like, it's almost like hearing something about someone your whole entire life and then you think you know them. So like, who's like a celebrity I could think of like on the top of my mind that isn't controversial. Like, I'm going to say, let's take, let's take like Leonardo DiCaprio. That's like the first one that came to my mind.

That's like the first one that came to my mind.
So people could watch all of Leonardo DiCaprio's movies, right? And they could read all about his autobiography. They could watch, you know, his videos and all these things. But if they lack to have a relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio, they actually don't know who the heck Leonardo DiCaprio is because your perception is deceiving if you're not fully pursuing a relationship.

And so that's the same thing with people who are pursuing God. People are pursuing God based off of what they know and not based off of what they're actually experiencing relationally with Christ. And so I want to talk about what it means to believe in God and how we could declare our belief system.

And I said this on TikTok, I think about like five months ago, and I think it reached the wrong side. I think it reached the Christians that were actually, the Christians that were super offended by what the Bible says to believe. I'm just going to let scripture speak for itself and then we'll talk. What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds?

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds?
Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or sister without clothes and daily food, if one of you says to them, go in peace, keep warm and well fed, but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

But if someone will say, you have faith, I have deeds, show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. So that show us that it shows us that our belief system isn't just a proclamation, but it's also an action that's being accompanied by your faith.

right so what it means to truly believe in jesus and if you feel like you fall into that 68 and you don't fall into that nine my biggest urge onto you is that you have every opportunity to turn towards the truth and pursue jesus christ for who he actually is the question is are you actually willing to do that because what that means isn't just oh i believe in you jesus but it's actually obeying his his teachings and carrying out the deeds of what it means to be a christian
