Do you really believe in God?
Written by Mubita C. Nawa   
Image"I can know who you are, where you are going, and who you believe in, and what you hope to become by simply observing what you do in a 24 to 48 hour period." Mubita C. Nawa

Why such a question?

God is the most intangible, most polarized and I believe the most misunderstood "person" in the whole world. If you go to Buddhists, they believe in Buddha. The Muslims in Mohammed and the Christians in Christ. I feel that all of us are persuaded and dogmatic in our beliefs of God.

For the record, I am a Christian. I am a born again Christian who gave his life to Jesus Christ 15 years ago. I believe in the God head- The father, son and the Holy Spirit.

Having said that, I also believe that everyone is free to practice their religion. If you believe in God, or you don't, it's all up to you. In the end, there will be accountability to God from all of us. What did we do with the lives that He gave us?

WHAT ARE YOU PREOCCUPIED WITH?
My purpose for this article is to persuade you that faith in God must be accompanied by works. Conversely, works for God must be augmented with faith.

So by me observing you over a 48 hour period, I can then see what it is that you believe in. What is it that persuades you to act the way that you do?

DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE IN GOD?
If say you are a Christian, and you say you believe in God, I can then look at the external and will be able to tell what your internal concepts are. Do you have faith for the lost? Do you believe Christ can redeem this world from its injustices? Do you feel that your life has been transformed therefore it is now a cartelist to transforming the lives of others?

Or do you just sleep, wake up, sleep and do the same thing over and over again.

WHAT AM I SAYING?
If anyone claims to believe in God, I can not see why or how they can live a mediocre life. I just refuse it. God is too powerful to be dormant.

I want to see you do something for God. Write a book, sing in the choir, win lost souls and demonstrate the practical life of Christ. If you really believe in God do something today

CONCLUSION!
This world is ready for world changers. The world is ready to be blessed by radical faith filled people who are practically demonstrating their beliefs. I will never stop talking about it. I am too persuaded to be destructed. May your faith and your works be synchronized.

"Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." James 2:17 NIV

God bless you and thanks for reading.

After reading your article, I feel ashamed, ahsamed that I say I am a christian, believe in God and the Holy trinity, and yet, do nought to show this to the world. On the other hand you have given me the push that I needed to testify and show that 'I'm a new creation, I'm a brand new woman, All things have passed away and I've been born again, born as a conquerer, that's what I am. I'm a new creation, I'm a brand new woman'. God bless...
