Not a Christian - Yet

A caterpillar is not a butterfly – yet.  Hopefully, given time and the right circumstances, the caterpillar will make the transformation into the beautiful creature it was created to be.

 

When saying someone is not a Christian, we often unwittingly label them with a sense of hopeless finality.  Keep in mind that while they live there is hope and never give up on anybody.  Our job is to pray for all in our vicinity, gracefully witnessing as opportunity arises and to always act with Christ-like attitudes – we are not called to ‘write’ people off.  If we behave like a true Christian – witnessing by our actions, negative people (whom we thought were beyond hope) may turn around and start questioning what makes us tick and the Power behind it. 
 Only God can judge if a person’s negative volition has gone past the point of no return.  If a person is still living and has not yet believed in Christ as Saviour, the best way of labelling that person is: ‘not a Christian – YET ’. (Psalm 149:4)
