[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, I used to ask Christians:

“If Jesus was really God, why did He eat, sleep, and bleed like us?”

And honestly, I used to ask it with pride like it was some unbeatable argument.

But later I realized something:

That question was not exposing Christianity.

It was exposing my misunderstanding of what kind of God Jesus claimed to be.

Because the real question is not:

“Why would God become weak?”

The real question is:

“What kind of God would willingly step into human suffering at all?”

Islam taught me about a God who was distant and untouchable.

But Christianity introduced me to a God who stepped into hunger, exhaustion, grief, pain, betrayal, blood, and suffering with us.

And suddenly His humanity stopped feeling like weakness to me.

It became proof of love.

If Jesus ate, it means He came close enough to experience hunger beside us.

If He slept, it means He embraced the exhaustion we carry.

If He bled, it means He did not stand above suffering watching us from a distance.

He entered it Himself.

Philippians 2 says Christ emptied Himself and took on flesh.

Not because He stopped being God, but because He wanted humanity to finally see what God is actually like.

And it turns out God is willing to suffer for the people He loves.

That changed everything for me.

Because every other religion demanded sacrifice from humanity.

Jesus became the sacrifice Himself.

And no prophet in history ever claimed that.

[Desiring God @desiringGod]

The lusted-after woman or man in your head, or on the screen, or on the street is dishonored — not treated as a sacred, precious, eternal person made in the image of God.

And the only way this dishonor can be carried out is by disregarding God while we are in the sway of our lust. Therefore, the way the Spirit produces self-control in the believer is by revealing the beauties of Christ to our souls as supremely beautiful and supremely satisfying.

From John Piper’s message “You Can Say No to Porn: A Pleasure Greater Than Lust.”

[Trevor Sheatz @TrevorSheatz]

You can't claim to love God while you're living in open rebellion against him. True saving faith always leads to a life marked by a turning away from sin.

If there's no change in your life, you should check yourself to see if you're actually saved.

[Trevor Sheatz @TrevorSheatz]

Christians, our main mission isn't to fix the world through politics or social programs (though these matter).

Our main mission is to preach the gospel and make disciples of all nations.

Don't lose sight of what ultimately matters.

[Trevor Sheatz @TrevorSheatz]

One millisecond after your heart stops, you'll know the Bible was right about everything.

Repent and turn to Christ while you still have breath.

[Trevor Sheatz @TrevorSheatz]

Faith is built on facts, not feelings. Even when you feel empty, the truth of the gospel remains the same.

Keep reading, keep praying, and keep abiding in Jesus.

[Trevor Sheatz @TrevorSheatz]

You aren't entitled to health or wealth. The only thing any of us earned is Hell.

If you have anything better than that today, it is a gift from God.

[Trevor Sheatz @TrevorSheatz]

Following Jesus may cost you much now, but when you see his face, you will know he was worth every temporary loss.

[Phela @PhelaTK]

@TrevorSheatz GOD bless you, Sir.
