Many Christians today lack the very thing that will help them to stand stronger in the face of adversity. That’s the foundation of Jesus Christ. Peter Wade once wrote, “The tragedy is that it is just as easy for Satan to deceive God’s people today as it was to deceive Eve. They go chasing after this man and chasing after this ministry, and forget what they have resident within. We must have something that lasts. It’s time we got back to the simplicity that is in Christ.” Too many times we have chased movement after movement seeking the next religious experience, all the while we are ignoring Christ. It is Jesus alone that we need to be chasing after. God never changes. We change because we take our eyes off the throne of God. You want the ultimate experience? Take God’s son, Jesus into your heart and let Him fill you with His spirit. While all the different religious movements come and go, the simplicity of Christ will still be here.
