A message from Peter Weckert
Many people, if not most, think Christian and Religion are pretty much the same thing. Nothing could be further from the truth. They are opposites. Religions world-wide teach that God will accept you when on balance, you have led a good life. They believe a better life, rather than a bad one, earns God's favour and His acceptance.
A Christian believes that God loves you. He accepts you. If you believe in Him, you are free to live a life full of the fruits of the Spirit. Christians don't work hard to gain God's approval. They do so because they already have it.
