John 15:16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.
We did not choose Christ to be our Saviour… You may be saying “but I thought I did” and you would be correct. What is being said is that we did not pick Christ out from a line-up of potential candidates, so to speak.
Christ is God and chose us to be His people and not the other way round. Just because we live in a real world and face real decisions does not mean we are in control of the whole real world!
Jesus wants us to take this truth and tell others so they are not trapped by the limitations of this world. Be more like Christ and free your faith!
