One of our problems as Christians in America is that our Christianity doesn't COST US anything. Instead of believing and accepting what Christ said about how we will suffer and be persecuted as His disciples and followers in this evil world, instead of taking up our own personal cross daily, and being intimately associated with the sufferings of Christ in our lives, we bend over backward in America to be accommodating to our family, friends, and to the world. This…. Because WE HAVE counted the cost of following Christ, and the cost is more than we are willing to pay, so, we capitulate and exchange our Christianity for "a religion" that costs us nothing…. no suffering shame for the gospel, no cross to bear, and no persecution or dealing with those that hate us because we love Christ! Child of God, that's not Christianity!
