Christianity Provides A Unified Answer

They Are Equal Reality. They Are Two Streams Of Present Reality, Both Equally Promised. The Christian Dead Are Already With Christ Now, And Christ Really Lives In The Christian. Christ Lives In Me. The Christ Who Was Crucified, The Christ Whose Work Is Finished, The Christ Who Is Glorified Now, Has Promised (john 15) To Bring Forth Fruit In The Christian, Just As The Sap Of The Vine Brings Forth The Fruit In The Branch.

Christianity Is Realistic Because It Says That If There Is No Truth, There Is Also No Hope; And There Can Be No Truth If There Is No Adequate Base. It Is Prepared To Face The Consequences Of Being Proved False And Say With Paul: If You Find The Body Of Christ, The Discussion Is Finished, Let Us Eat And Drink For Tomorrow We Die. It Leaves Absolutely No Room For A Romantic Answer.

Here We Are Told That Christ Really Lives In Me, If I Have Accepted Christ As My Savior. In Other Words, We Have The Words Of Jesus To The Thief Of The Cross, 'today Thou Wilt Be With Me In Paradise.' Christ Can Say, 'today Thou Wilt Be With Me In Paradise,' And Mean It. To Die Is To Be With The Lord. It Is Not Just An Idea, It Is A Reality. But At The Same Time, Christ, The Same Christ Who Gives The Promise Just As Definitely, That When I Have Accepted Christ As My Savior, He Lives In Me.

Are You Still Thirsting? Christ Gives The Invitation Not Only To Others But To You. He Is The Fountainhead. He Has Died And Is Risen. He Offers The Only Way To Eternal Life, Asking Only That You Admit Your Need, Raise The Empty Hands Of Faith, And Accept His Gift. What Is Eternal Life? It Is Meaning In Life Now As Well As Living One‚s Life Forever. Drink Deep. Jesus Offers A Brimming Cup.

Christian Art Is The Expression Of The Whole Life Of The Whole Person As A Christian. What A Christian Portrays In His Art Is The Totality Of Life. Art Is Not To Be Solely A Vehicle For Some Sort Of Self-conscious Evangelism.
