12-17-25 "Jesus, are You really in me?"

There are so many challenges to the fact that Christ lives in us. Unfortunately, the primary challenge is current Christian teaching itself. For one, it holds that modern faith still rests on external ritual, not internal reality. For another, Christianity's "future oriented" focus creates a disconnect with present reality. By framing salvation as a ticket to heaven, it overlooks the immediate, transformative power of Christ's presence, leaving believers vulnerable to fear and guilt. Also, it teaches that spiritual growth is an academic process, when the truth is it's a "travail" of Christ being revealed through us through life's circumstances.
